A new study offers a rare window into the hidden effects of aggressive fire suppression that go beyond fuel accumulation. The practice may even change the course of forest evolution.
Our tallest trees are world champions when it comes to capturing and storing carbon, but they don’t like the heat. Climate change will trigger mass tree deaths in Tasmania. Here’s what can be done.
Nigeria’s forest resources have dwindled and are in danger of disappearing in a few decades if nothing is done to save them.
We scanned the tree canopy with lasers and found birds much prefer the branches of big old trees.
Cattle are major producers of methane, a potent greenhouse gas. But there are methods that can reduce their climate impact – if ranchers have incentive to use them.
Their incredible resilience means they are becoming part of the UK landscape.
Trees – and all plants – harvest sunlight to gain the energy they need to live and grow.
Effective use of genomic identification could revolutionize the control of the illegal timber trade.
Planting trees to remove carbon from the atmosphere will only be effective alongside other strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
New research suggests the gut bacteria of red and grey squirrels differ significantly, potentially explaining the decline of the native red and the success of its grey counterpart.
Large parts of Appalachia’s forests, once owned by coal companies, now make money for investors by storing carbon. But the results bring few jobs or sizable investments for residents.
Satellite images and community perceptions combine to give a fuller picture of land use changes.
Incentives have so far benefited large landowners and created lifeless plantations.
President Biden has called for protecting large, old trees from logging, but many of them could be cut while the regulatory process grinds forward.
Redwoods grow in networks that house unique communities of plants and animals high in the air. They offer life lessons about adapting over time.
An interdisciplinary group of researchers at Penn State ran computer models on two Philadelphia census tracts. The neighborhood with more vulnerable residents was also hotter.
Current greenhouse gas inventories in Canada only consider “managed” lands. This must change before we can truly understand the scale of Canada’s carbon emissions.
Carbon capture and sequestration can play a role in limiting warming but the nuances of its application are far more complicated than just planting trees. Getting it wrong could make warming worse.
How many years you reuse a fake holiday tree matters. So does what happens to a live tree when you’ve packed up the ornaments.
