Halocarpus bidwillii, commonly known as the mountain pine or bog pine, is a species of conifer in the family Podocarpaceae. It is endemic to New Zealand and can be found throughout the North and South Islands. It is an evergreen shrub favouring both bogs and dry stony ground, seldom growing to more than 3.5 m (11 ft) high.
Dendrolycopodium obscurum, synonym Lycopodium obscurum, commonly called rare clubmoss, [2] ground pine, [3] or princess pine, [4] is a North American species of clubmoss in the family Lycopodiaceae. [5] It is a close relative of other species such as D. dendroideum and D. hickeyi, also treelike.
The Jeffrey pine and the ponderosa pine are common in drier montane areas of the Sierra Nevada. They are often confused by casual observers. Across the remainder of the American West, Jeffrey pine is absent, with ponderosa pine being the sole yellow pine. Jeffrey pine is more stress tolerant than ponderosa pine in the Sierra Nevada.
The representation is made on a temperature-relative humidity, instead of a standard psychrometric chart. The comfort zone in blue represents the 90% of acceptability, which means the conditions between -0.5 and +0.5 PMV, or PPD < 10%.
An organism's natural tolerance of heat is their basal thermotolerance. [1] Meanwhile, acquired thermotolerance is defined as an enhanced level of thermotolerance after exposure to a heat stress. [ 2 ]
See Thermoregulation § In plants and Breeding for heat stress tolerance. For drought tolerance, see Drought § Impact on crops and Breeding for drought stress tolerance. For flood tolerance, see cited review. [8] The mechanisms of wind tolerance are still poorly understood. Wind not only causes mechanical stress, but also makes the plant ...
Pinus sabiniana trees typically grow to 11–14 metres (36–45 ft), but can reach 32 m (105 ft). The pine needles are in fascicles (bundles) of three, distinctively pale gray-green, sparse and drooping, and grow to 20–30 centimetres (8–12 in) in length.
Agathis robusta, commonly known as Dundathu pine, kauri pine, Queensland kauri (pine), Australian kauri (pine) or smooth-barked kauri, is a coniferous tree in the family Araucariaceae. Although some common names use the word 'pine' it is not a true pine , having leaves rather than needles.
