The form and shape of the trees created by Glover are strongly organic spreading out past the boarder of the canvas. Glover’s technique of painting trees is one of the key elements his work is recognised by. Glover’s painting shows the trees as both living and not living. The work is dominated by organic

HARDWOOD Hardwood is wood from angiosperm trees (more strictly speaking non-monocot angiosperm trees). It may also be used for those trees themselves: these are usually broad-leaved; in temperate and boreal latitudes they are mostly deciduous‚ but in tropics and subtropics mostly evergreen. Hardwood contrasts with softwood (which is from Gymnosperm trees). Hardwoods are not necessarily harder than softwoods. In both groups there is an enormous variation in actual wood hardness‚ with the range in

Erosion of land and loss of nutrients. Erosion is when soil or rock gets slowly worn away by things like water‚ wind‚ or ice. It happens slowly over time and can change the shape of the land. Without trees‚ there is nothing to hold the soil cover and provide anchor as well as shelter. Without trees‚ the land is more at risk of getting swept

opportunity to attend a conference on the fate of the Brazilian Rainforest where I learned about the uses of the rainforest and its resources. The Brazilian Rainforest is important for many reasons such as: settling‚ ranching‚ hunting‚ plants growth‚ rubber trees‚ oxygen cycle‚ and medicine. The best course of action for the Brazilian government is to outlaw the burning or cutting of the rainforest. The rainforest is currently used by a number of different interest groups; each one has its own priority in the

Often newly planted trees are not allowed to mature before they are harvested. Some companies only wait twenty years before clear cutting the same area as before. This creates a problem as the trees are not given the chance to grow. It is common sense that if these companies would wait another couple decades they would get a bigger harvest from the trees and they would not have to cut as many trees down. Whenever logging companies choose to use the same types of trees to replace what they have

baobab that is shorter‚ being only 17 metres in height‚ but having a trunk an incredible 15.9 metres thick! Its crown spreads to 37 metres in width. There are many other individual baobabs that approach or exceed 10 metres in trunk thickness. These trees have the greatest potential for hugeness if allowed to live very long‚ but how long can they live? In 2007‚ the biggest baobab in South Africa was officially determined to be about 2‚000 years old‚ and many others may exceed 1‚000 years. Baobab wood

When beetles eat ash trees‚ they leave 4-5 millimeter holes in the bark of ash trees‚ shallow tunnel underneath the bark‚ and epicormic shoots (1). This can also result in wilted foliage‚ yellow leaves‚ the death of ash trees. The infestation in North America has destroyed in the tens of millions of ash
