* Internet Search Results    *** Search Filter: "Trees"    Tropical Fossils in Alaska | Geophysical Institute Trees of the rain forest tend to have smooth bark, broad evergreen leaves and heavily buttressed roots--all suitable characteristics for a climate where water and sunshine are plentiful all year round. Cottonwood and Balsam Poplar | Geophysical Institute The Klukwan giant belies the belief that trees tend to get smaller the farther north one goes. Both balsam poplar and cottonwood have value for fuel wood, pulp and lumber. Northern Tree Habitats | Geophysical Institute Why take a chance with exotics, when native trees have proven their ability to survive? Several reasons prompt testing of foreign tree species. Human activities often create and maintain new, sometimes artificial habitats that native trees are not adapted to. Exotics may have strong wood, large fruits or straight boles that are lacking in the ... Burls - Geophysical Institute Burls weaken trees but do not kill them. The weakening effect, however, makes the trees vulnerable to other diseases which can kill them. Relatively little is known about burls, for several reasons: It takes a long time for a burl to grow--nearly as long as the tree on which it is found--so research is stretched out over a long period of time. Tamarack -- Not A Dead Spruce | Geophysical Institute When one of these trees finds itself on a better site, however, it shows a remarkable change of pace. Individual tamarack growing in white spruce stands may achieve a size comparable to white spruce 100 to 150 years old. The current record tamarack in Alaska stands near mile 311 of the Richardson Highway. The Kodiak Treeline | Geophysical Institute Spruce trees planted on the islands by the Russians in 1805 are doing just fine and reseeding themselves naturally, although the total tree population hardly amounts to a forest. New way to spot beetle-killed spruce can help forest, wildfire managers ... A new machine-learning system developed at the University of Alaska Fairbanks can automatically produce detailed maps from satellite data to show locations of likely beetle-killed spruce trees in Alaska, even in forests of low and moderate infestation where identification is otherwise difficult. Witches' Broom | Geophysical Institute Witches' broom on spruce trees is caused by a rust disease (a kind of fungus disease). The rust lives on the spruce tree throughout the year. Each spring, small yellow pustules appear on the new needles of the broom. A strong sweet odor, which is easily recognizable, usually accompanies the maturation of these pustules. The largest black spruce in Alaska | Geophysical Institute The Alaska champion black spruce tree stands on the campus of the University of Alaska Fairbanks. The tree lives in a mixed forest next to large white spruce trees, mature birch and a few alders and willows. The tree leans uphill, and its trunk is 45 inches around. When I hugged it, I could barely clasp my hands together. The secret life of red squirrels | Geophysical Institute Stan Boutin has climbed more than 5,000 spruce trees in the last 30 years. He has often returned to the forest floor knowing if a ball of twigs and moss within the tree contained newborn red squirrel pups. Over the years, those squirrels have taught Boutin and his colleagues many things, including an apparent ability to predict the future.     * Live EBAY Auctions   * Latest PANAREA Italy 101 News        *** News Filter: "Trees"     Leaf through a host of fun events for Lexington Tree Week  Lexington Herald Leader Refugium: More Fun With Franklin Street Trees  Chapelboro.com Sprint, stroll, or skip at The Brom Tree’s 5K and 1-Mile Fun Run  KALB Palm Coast to Celebrate 20th Annual Arbor Day with Free Trees, Butterflies, and Family Fun  City of Palm Coast, Florida (.gov) Join the scavenger hunt to find heritage trees in Menlo Park  InMenlo Upcoming Johnson County events offer free trees, safety tips, concerts & more  Kansas City Star Cherry Fun Run back: Float like a blossom, run by the trees  Columbia Community Connection Downed trees cut power to Knoebels Amusement Resort  The News-Item 10 INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT KOALAS  WWF Australia Fun facts about Masters, Augusta National trees, bridges and more you may not know about  Golfweek
