* Internet Search Results    *** Search Filter: "Trees"    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 ... Tropical Fossils in Alaska | Geophysical Institute Paleobotanist Jack A. Wolfe of the United States Geological Survey at Menlo Park, California, has found a number of tropical rain forest fossils along the eastern Gulf of Alaska. These include several kinds of palms, Burmese lacquer trees, mangroves and trees of the type that now produce nutmeg and Macassar oil. Trees as Earthquake Fault Indicators | Geophysical Institute A swath of dead, tilted and broken trees now makes obvious the trace of the Fairweather fault that broke in July 1958 to devastate Lituya Bay and nearby parts of southeastern Alaska. Sagging or tilting of the ground along a fault trace causes trees there to tilt or even fall. 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. 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. Mummified forest tells tale of a changing north - Geophysical Institute Pollen samples from lake-bottom muck also show that basswoods, hickories, elms and other trees grew in Alaska and other northern places millions of years ago. Those fair-weather trees suggest a very warm period in the far north, while the mummified forest of Ellesmere Island suggests a climate in transition from comfortable to bitter cold. More on Why Tree Trunks Spiral | Geophysical Institute Granted, not all trees exhibit the same twist, but the majority of them do. The phenomenon can be likened to the claim that water will always spiral out of a drain in a counter-clockwise direction in the northern hemisphere. Pollen season arrives, blame the trees | Geophysical Institute The air is rich with pollen because spring is the mating season for trees. The first step in a tree's reproductive dance is to release sperm, safely held in the center of a pollen grain. Trees release an incredible amount of pollen to improve the odds of finding a female flower. Visit to an exotic tree plantation in Alaska | Geophysical Institute These exotic trees — some now 70 feet tall — are a nice legacy for the men who planted shin-high seedlings years before Woodward last visited the plot in 1981. Les Viereck, a renowned ecologist who wrote Alaska Trees and Shrubs, died in 2008. Orange trees in the Alaska Range | Geophysical Institute While wandering middle Alaska this summer, I noticed orange spruce trees along the entire length of the Denali Highway, from Paxson to Cantwell.     * Live EBAY Auctions   * Latest VULCANO Italy News        *** News Filter: "Trees"     Family Fun Day - Trees  RaleighNC.gov TreeFolks blends education, fun, and trees for a greener tomorrow  KEYE Cherry Fun Run back: Float like a blossom, run by the trees  Columbia Community Connection Home | Department of Parks and Recreation  City and County of Honolulu (.gov) Arbor Day Festival 2025 at Planting Fields: A celebration of trees and a weekend of family fun  News 12 - Long Island Opinion | Britain’s bleak trees are all part of the Christmas fun  The Washington Post 6 of the best Easter trees still in stock  Yahoo Boxelder: Fun To Hate, Unless You’re A Bird  New York Almanack Fun facts about Masters, Augusta National trees, bridges and more you may not know about  Golfweek FEZtival of Trees in Lewiston combines holiday fun with fundraising  WGME
