== Flora ==
High winds, salt spray, and sandy soil provide a harsh environment for plant life. Maritime forests are composed of deciduous, coniferous, and broadleaf evergreens. Some of the trees that occupy maritime forests include the southern sugar maple, swamp dogwood,〔 mockernut hickory,〔 white ash, and the white poplar.
Some animals that live in these forests are: foxes, deer, rabbits, tree frogs, raccoons, toads, painted buntings, and many others.
Many plants in the Maritime Forests have a natural waxy coating to protect them from the salt spray. Most of the plants found in Maritime Forests are evergreens and shrubs.
