Ode to a Mother Tree

No customer reviews yet ISBN 9781554556922

After springing from the ashes of a catastrophic forest fire, can one tiny seedling cling to life long enough to flourish into its full potential? As intimate as it is universal, this lyrical yet science-based coming-of-age story about the making of a Mother Tree follows one tree's craving for connection over the span of a millennium. Chronicled through stark, stirring text fused with vivid, spellbinding artwork, the singular life of one Western red cedar tree serves as a living bridge between worlds, across cultures, and beyond time as we know it.

Lavish, lichen-draped,
Sporting sleeves of moss, these trees
Pulse with plush, lush life.

Climate Change, Air Pollution and Global Challenges: Understanding and Perspectives from Forest Rese
There are significant pressures from climate change and air pollution that forests currently face. This book aims to increase understanding of the state and potential of forest ecosystems to mitigate and adapt to climate change in a polluted environment. It reconciles process-oriented research, long-term monitoring and applied modeling through comprehensive forest ecosystem research. Furthermore, it introduces "forest super sites for research" for integrating soil, plant and atmospheric sciences and monitoring. It also provides mechanistic and policy-oriented modeling with scientifically sound risk indications regarding atmospheric changes and ecosystem services.
