If a tree falls in the forest, it can create an opening for more incoming light, and that makes a significant impact on the surrounding environment, according to new research. An international science ...

The effects of a phenomenon called tree masting on ecosystems and food webs can be better understood thanks to new theoretical models validated by real world observations. The effects of a phenomenon ...

Tree-D Fusion, developed by MIT, Google, and Purdue researchers, uses AI to create 3D models of urban trees, predicting growth under climate scenarios. These models aid city planning by anticipating ...

How much carbon dioxide do parks and individual trees in cities absorb, and how much do they release? To answer this question, researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have developed a ...

Tree stem taper modeling is fundamental to modern forestry science and practice, providing a precise framework for understanding how stem diameters decrease with height. This modelling not only ...

This paper describes an interdisciplinary study of the habitat requirements of threatened desert tortoises (Gopherus agassizii) on eight 225-ha study plots in a 14 000 ha study area near the southern ...
