If a tree falls in the forest, it can create an opening for more incoming light, and that makes a significant impact on the surrounding environment, according to new research. An international science ...

An international science team used supercomputer simulations to model forest population dynamics of tree diversity in tropical forests. The researchers hope their work will help support forest ...

The pedunculate oaks typical of Leipzig's floodplain forest and other German oak forests are struggling to regenerate in the understorey due to a lack of light. One reason for this is the absence of ...

The method not only overcomes limitations of traditional LiDAR scanning but also enables the extraction of other hard-to-measure crown parameters, promising to advance forest management, breeding, and ...

A team at the University of Copenhagen has generated a map of tree cover in 45 African countries down to individual tree crowns by feeding high-resolution satellite imagery into a machine-learning ...
