Jul 31, 2024 · They found that Tulip Trees, which are related to magnolias and can grow over 30 metres (100 feet) tall, have a unique type of wood. This discovery may explain why the trees, which diverged from magnolias when earth's atmospheric CO 2 concentrations were relatively low, grow so tall and so fast.
Sep 9, 2024 · We are now looking at whether its seemingly unique wood structure is the sole reason it is king of carbon capture, and we are widening our search to find out if there are any more midwood trees...
Sep 11, 2024 · Research on Tulip Trees has identified a novel wood structure with significant carbon capture potential, suggesting their use in carbon sequestration plantations due to their rapid growth and unique wood properties.
Jul 30, 2024 · Researchers undertaking an evolutionary survey of the microscopic structure of wood from some of the world's most iconic trees and shrubs have discovered an entirely new type of wood.
Jul 31, 2024 · Researchers from the University of Cambridge and Jagiellonian University, Poland, have discovered an entirely new type of wood that does not fit into either category of hardwood or softwood. This discovery may open new opportunities to mitigate climate change by improving carbon capture and storage in carbon capture plantation forests, by ...
