A new study finds that tree growth does not seem to be generally limited by photosynthesis but rather by cell growth. This suggests that we need to rethink the way we forecast forest growth in a ...
Low-cost “tree fitbits” can pinpoint the precise timing of tree activities, like spring bloom or autumn leaf change, according to a new CU Boulder study. Researchers outfitted two East Boulder ash ...
Tree-ring samples taken by Paulo Quadri, who earned a Ph.D. in environmental studies from UC Santa Cruz, were included in the study. (Photo by Luz A. de Wit) The top-line findings of a massive ...
Analysis of when and how fast temperate deciduous trees in North America grow suggests that the earlier onset of the growing season induced by climate change does not result in extra carbon ...
A new study from Umeå University has revealed that the trees’ circadian clock guides their growth and the timing of seasonal events like the appearance of leaves in spring. The researchers ...
For years, a comforting idea has floated around climate conversations. As carbon dioxide builds up in the atmosphere, forests will soak it up, grow faster, and quietly help balance the planetary books ...
What will happen to the world’s forests in a warming world? Will increased atmospheric carbon dioxide help trees grow? Or will extremes in temperature and precipitation hold growth back? That all ...
