Las sequoias costeras son los árboles más altos del mundo, creciendo en los bosques de niebla de California. Su inmensa altura se sustenta en la niebla que proporciona humedad crucial. Estos gigantes son sumideros de carbono masivos y su protección es fundamental para la biodiversidad y el clima.

#ThickTrunkTuesday A small group of relatively young giant sequoias (sequoiadendron giganteum), #NationalTrust Nymans, West Sussex. These are amongst a healthy population of sequoias growing at this location, some of which are over a century old and reach a height of some 40 metres. Sequoias are a long term project in any arboretum and will need several centuries more before they get anywhere near full-grown. #Trees #Plants #Sequoias

From the centre foreground of the image, a well trodden path, dappled with sunlight, veers off to the right before being obscured by the dense foliage of a small sequoia. To the left of the path are 4 or 5 other sequoias of varying sizes, growing on a gently sloping bank. The bank is bare of any foliage in the most shady areas but grass and other plants grow where sunlight is falling.

I’ve had the incredible fortune to explore the giant #Sequoias in #Yosemite, and now, this stunning one in #Sintra, #Portugal.

Sometime around the end of the last ice age
—around 20,000 years ago
—a single aspen seed rooted, sprouted, and began cloning itself
in what is now central Utah.
Known as #Pando, which comes from the Latin “I spread,”
🔸the world’s largest known organism continues to grow today,
🔹comprising more than 40,000 individual trees.
🔸Every trunk emerged as a shoot from the same root system,
🔹and scientists estimate Pando weighs about 13 million pounds.

For photographer Mitch Epstein, the phenomenal resilience, scale, and lengthy lifespans of trees form the basis of his ongoing series #Old #Growth

From the world’s most voluminous #sequoias to the most ancient weathered and gnarled #bristlecone #pines
—which can live more than 4,000 years
—he captures remarkable stalwarts around the U.S.

#Redwoods are growing almost as fast in the #UK as their #California cousins
New study finds that giant #sequoias add 70 cm of height and store 160 kg of carbon per year. arstechnica.com/science/2024/0 #climatechange

#Biden administration moves to protect #OldGrowthForests as #ClimateChange brings fires and pests

"their trunks and branches store large amounts of #carbon... Underlining the urgency of the issue are #wildfires that killed thousands of giant #sequoias in recent years... Under former President #Trump, federal officials sought to open up millions of acres of West Coast #forests to potential #logging"
