Beech forest in Mátra, Hungary in winter. Forest migration is the movement of large seed plant dominated communities in geographical space over time.. The emphasis of forest migration is placed on the movement of the populations that make up the forest community.
Living Carbon, an American biotechnology company founded in 2019, has developed genetically engineered hybrid poplar trees aimed at enhancing carbon sequestration. These trees have been modified to improve photosynthetic efficiency, enabling them to capture more carbon dioxide (CO₂) and produce greater woody biomass than conventional trees.
The savannah hypothesis (or savanna hypothesis) is a hypothesis that human bipedalism evolved as a direct result of human ancestors' transition from an arboreal lifestyle to one on the savannas. According to the hypothesis, hominins left the woodlands that had previously been their natural habitat millions of years ago and adapted to their new ...
As the human population continues to grow and development expands into previous wild areas, human-animal conflicts will continue to increase. These conflicts range from herbivores consuming plants in urban landscapes and agriculture, to carnivores hunting pets, livestock, or attacking humans.
How trees can improve physical health Previous research has shown spending time in green spaces boosts mental health . The new study showed the connection between living among more trees and ...
Autogenic engineers modify the environment by modifying themselves. Trees are an example of this; as they grow, their trunks and branches create habitats for other living things, which may include squirrels, birds or insects. In the tropics, lianas connect trees, which allow many animals to travel exclusively through the forest canopy.
An aging expert thinks humans can live for 20,000 years—and he might not be crazy. ... how about humans living for 20,000 ... achieving the wild life spans of 1,000 to 20,000 years would require ...
Leopards are great climbers and can carry their kills up trees to keep them out of reach from scavengers and other predators. Arboreal locomotion is the locomotion of animals in trees. In habitats in which trees are present, animals have evolved to move in them. Some animals may scale trees only occasionally (scansorial), but others are ...
