One common feature of old-growth forests is the presence of many old trees—but how do we measure the age of the trees in these forests? You might know that after a tree has been cut down, you can count the rings on the stump to tell the tree’s age. Researchers can also learn the age of a tree while it’s still living by taking a core sample. This process involves removing a thin cylinder of wood from inside the tree trunk that shows the rings. The earliest growth is at the center, and each year a

Old-growth forests are known for having a forest floor that dips and rises, a characteristic called pit and mound topography. When a large tree falls, part of the roots and attached soil may be lifted out of the ground, leaving behind a pit where the roots were. As the uplifted roots decay, they form a mound next to the pit. Although trees fall and decay in all forests, it can take centuries for pit and mound topography to form across a large area, making it a common feature of old-growth forest

Oregon’s mature and old growth forests are key in the fight against climate change, but did you ever wonder if they’re being protected? In Oregon’s coastal forests, giant trees can absorb carbon at a staggering rate, yet logging on some public lands is on the rise. Why? OPB’s April Ehrlich teamed up with ProPublica to understand how the Bureau of Land Management has managed these forests for nearly a century. 🎤🖋️by April Ehrlich, OPB ✂️ by Dana deLaski 🎵 by Audio Network Full story here https

Since old-growth forests were cleared by European settlers, Chimney Swifts have taken to nesting in manmade structures, instead of hollowed trees and caves. However, 1000 Chimney Swifts recently found to have been roosting in University of North Carolina's most famous tree may be the first known instance of a natural roost in generations!

What are old growth forests like? Here is video 1 (of many) from my visit to the Big Reed Preserve (owned by @tncmaine) — the largest old growth forest in New England. For me, what is so impactful about visiting Big Reed is that it gave me a chance to see what forests have looked like on our landscape for thousands of years, and thus the conditions that so much of our biodiversity is adapted to. However, this is also not a video about how we should leave all forests alone — our modern day forest

We can only let out a wistful sigh when imagining the old-growth pine forests before European settlement. The wood of Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus) helped build the nation from the ground up and fueled growing tensions with the British Empire, ultimately culminating in the Revolutionary War. The story of White Pine is from Donald Culross Peattie’s A Natural History of Trees of Eastern and Central North America. | The Conservation Foundation

Shocking drone footage reveals the brutal impacts of old-growth logging in British Columbia, Canada. Scores of ancient cedars, some nearly 10 feet (3 meters) wide and many well over 500 years old, would have been alive and standing just before we arrived that day. However, in 2022, Western Forest Products clearcut 25 hectares (roughly 50 football fields) from an incredible old-growth grove on northwestern Vancouver Island, BC in Quatsino territory. It’s one of the most shocking examples of indus

Mature and old-growth forests are a vital part of a healthy planet. And for the first time ever, the U.S. Forest Service is asking the public to weigh in on their management plan to protect old growth. The current proposal falls way short, containing loopholes that will allow old-growth trees to be sent to the mill — and it doesn’t safeguard the mature trees we’ll need as our climate champions in the future. We have a chance, right now, to save what’s left. Please join us in telling the U.S. For

What’s an old-growth forest? This is my second video from Big Reed, the largest old growth forest in New England. There are a lot of different definitions for “old growth” but most fall into one or more of these three buckets — forests that are “primary” or “virgin”; forests that are “old”; or forests that are “late-successional” I.e. that have an array of attributes that functionally describe how forests have existed on this landscape for millennia. Also note that my description of late-success
