In order for wood to become petrified it needs to be covered in silt to prevent decay by oxygen and micro-organisms that decompose wood. Over time the minerals in groundwater penetrate the cells and deposit minerals, usually calcite and silica, but sometimes opal or pyrite. Trace amounts of...
In the US the gold standard seems to beblack locustor osage orange. Woods to avoid are those which are less dense when dry. You can't always tell with fresh cut timber as the water in the wood is very heavy. Here we sometimes cut poplar and regularly cut sweet chestnut. When fresh ...
and black locust Robinia pseudoacacia L. with natural tree regeneration in temperate forests. We established 160 circular 0.05 ha plots in western Poland managed forests, in two different habitat types: nutrient-poor with Pinus sylvestris L. and nutrient-rich with Quercus spp. We assessed natural ...
It may be hard to imagine the advanced world of space colonization relying on insects, but it may turn out to be the case. In order for humans to survive in outer space, they're going to have to eat. Trucking food to Mars isn't exactly cheap delivery, either. So the best thing to...
The density of a tree is calculated by taking the mass of dried wood and weighing it compared to green wet wood. This allows for the water to have been removed and pure wood density to be calculated. Since this is difficult to do, it is easiest to use a resource to find its calculate...

Basswood – Provides for a variety of wildlife. An excellent nectar source for honeybees. Hackberry – Has deep-spreading roots and is medium to fast growing. Honey Locust – Has an open canopy with small leaves and will not shade out grass and other landscape plants. Has many uses for ...
and had answers for nearly everything. Eventually I rose to the top of the league standings, dethroning Tim Martoni (did you know that Struggle // Survive is also excellent removal against The Locust God?). Tim’s 2ndplace decklist is included below to share a different route to inclusion...
