I looked on line to try and identify it but couldnt find it, any ideas? I could send a pic if you need one.

Whoever concocted that SUGAR pnemonics for kids is very creative and interesting! By the way Karin, i have been searching on the amount of CO2 a plant (maybe in height or weight) consumes per unit per time, but i can't see a concrete answer. I was averted by so many literature that were so interesting too, and i lost my purpose, haha. YOu might know the answer please, thanks.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05848957958059476177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335626764384885870.post-60692385234774186852013-07-26T21:58:53.765-04:002013-07-26T21:58:53.765-04:00James: I enjoyed your post, and learned some new t...James: I enjoyed your post, and learned some new things.

Maybe one day you will find ways to help our trees. <br /><br />Karin, I too have read the recent study and did find it quite understandable that trees are indeed finding ways to cope with lessening water supplies. Since many trees have suffered in the last number of years with drought conditions, the roots are compromised as a result, offering less structural support. So when excessive rains saturated soils, they were very likely to topple in the softened conditions having less root structure to hold them in place.<br /><br />I enjoyed this post, and hope to see James posting again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335626764384885870.post-927194341056363112013-07-26T13:59:44.173-04:002013-07-26T13:59:44.173-04:00Excellent tips for memory tricks, James.
