The idea is to increase density of a city without building more above ground.

Coastal areas may see waters surge by as much as 8 feet or more above ground if Florence's peak surge coincides with a high tide.

Transportation advocates, though, are worried that a new tunnel network for cars will just create more above-ground congestion, especially as vehicle queue up to enter the tunnel.

"We need to be able to focus on multiple shooters, on one or more above ground — we've got to multiply our forces," said Chief Chris Jones, who is overseeing the department's preparations.

This is a list of buildings with 100 floors or more above ground. Dubai and Chicago have the most 100-plus-story buildings, with 3 buildings above 100 floors. Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou and New York City have 2 each.

Brighton Place is an abandoned and never used subway station of the Cincinnati Subway. The station is the last through station before the tracks go above ground along Interstate 75. The station was planned in 1916, but lacked funding to complete. Beyond this station were three more above ground stations.

Not much is known but all species of this genus are diurnal, arboreal and often secretive. They inhabit forests, woodland and thicket of coastal plains from sea level to 2000 m altitude. Usually they live high up in the trees 10 m or more above ground level and hide in holes or under loose bark. For sun-basking and feeding (insects and other arthropods, also smaller lizards) they move on branches using their prehensile tails as balancing organs.

Silencing systemin did not affect the ability of black nightshade to resist herbivory and, when competing against normal plants, silenced plants produced more above-ground biomass and berries. Upon herbivory, systemin was down-regulated in black nightshade in contrast to the other peptides which are up-regulated after herbivory. By contrast HypSys were up-regulated and activated the synthesis of protease inhibitors. The down-regulation of systemin was associated with increased root mass but did not decrease shoot mass, demonstrating that systemin can cause developmental changes as a result of herbivory, allowing the plant to tolerate, rather than directly resist attack.

Hedera helix adult leaves and unripe berries in Ayrshire, Scotland On level ground they remain creeping, not exceeding 5–20 cm height, but on suitable surfaces for climbing, including trees, natural rock outcrops or man-made structures such as quarry rock faces or built masonry and wooden structures, they can climb to at least 30 m above the ground. Ivies have two leaf types, with palmately lobed juvenile leaves on creeping and climbing stems and unlobed cordate adult leaves on fertile flowering stems exposed to full sun, usually high in the crowns of trees or the tops of rock faces, from 2 m or more above ground. The juvenile and adult shoots also differ, the former being slender, flexible and scrambling or climbing with small aerial roots to affix the shoot to the substrate (rock or tree bark), the latter thicker, self-supporting and without roots. The flowers are greenish-yellow with five small petals; they are produced in umbels in autumn to early winter and are very rich in nectar.
