Researchers at the University of British Columbia are concluding that trees are interacting with one another in a symbiotic relationship that helps the trees to survive.
Connected by fungi, the underground root systems of plants and trees are transferring carbon and nitrogen back and forth between each other in a network of subtle communication.
Similar to the network of neurons and axons in the
human brain, the network of fungi, roots, soil and micro-organisms
beneath the larger ‘mother trees’ gives the forest its own
consciousness... ('Avatar'
anyone...?)
In this real-life model of forest resilience and regeneration,
Professor Suzanne Simard shows that all trees in a forest
ecosystem are interconnected, with the largest, oldest, "mother
trees" serving as hubs. The underground exchange of nutrients
increases the survival of younger trees linked into the network
of old trees. Amazingly, we find that in a forest, 1+1 equals
more than 2. - See more at: http://www.karmatube.org/videos.php?id=2764#sthash.h5cD4mjT.dpuf
