ACADIA NATIONAL PARK, Maine (AP) — Environmental advocacy groups have released a report saying Acadia National Park is one of 25 in the country most threatened by climate change.

The report says among issues Acadia faces are rising sea levels, possible shifts in the distribution and numbers of tree and animal species, more severe storms, and increasing visits as people flee rising temperatures farther south.

The Bangor Daily News reports the groups say high surf in August from Hurricane Bill, which injured more than a dozen people along the shore near Thunder Hole and swept one 7-year-old New York girl to her death, is a sign that climate change already is affecting Acadia and other National Park Service properties.
