How Does Global Warming Affect Rteee Growth Adn Distribution In Tropical Areas?
Global warming accelerates the growth of trees. I believe I read a while back of an incident stumbled upon by luck by a treasure hunter. He was invited to go scuba diving in one of the great lakes and found thousands of sunken perfectly preserved cut timber logs from (I think) al least a hundred years before when wood was floated from site to mill or pick-up area. Although the trees are still around now, the quality of what was found was far more superior to what is harvested today. The growth rings were closer together making the statement I opened with true because the closer the growth rings the slower the growth of the tree. I found a couple of site detailing this. I am sure you can find more” http://www.popularwoodworking.com/features/printable.asp?id=1300 http://www.cnn.com/TECH/9707/23/logging/ I hope this helps!
