Forests protect against avalanches, but not every forest is equally effective. Thanks to almost 50 years of observations at ...

Careful measurement of the height of trees is key in order to: 'Many climate models underrepresent tree contributions in non-forest ecosystems because they lack ground data,' explains Dr. Mahmud.

Researchers have developed an algorithm that uses computer vision techniques to accurately measure trees almost five times faster than traditional, manual methods.

Dr. Mubark Mahmud PhD, an environmental researcher originally from Kano State and now residing in France, has developed a groundbreaking technique for measuring tree height, now recognised as the ...

Hyperion is the world's largest tree. Measuring nearly 116 meters tall, this coast redwood tree's exact location remains a mystery to many.

A new map shows forest height around the globe and will improve estimates of how much carbon is stored in trees.

Forests store planet-heating carbon dioxide, but measuring how much can be challenging. NASA scientists have developed the technology to use lasers from space to help measure the amount of carbon ...

The Doerner Fir, the largest of its kind, held a special significance for the Pacific Northwest big-tree enthusiasts. Its rescue would require a daring climb.
