拥有 160 年树龄的进口英国巨杉以加州本土生长速度生长,捕获大量碳。 160-year-old imported UK giant sequoias grow at native California rates, capture substantial carbon.
英国的研究发现,160 年前进口的巨型红杉树的生长速度接近其在加利福尼亚州的原生范围,并在其漫长的生命周期中捕获了大量的碳。 UK study finds giant sequoia trees, imported 160 years ago, grow at rates close to their native California range and capture large amounts of carbon during their long lives. 据估计,英国有五十万棵红杉树,并且还在种植更多。 An estimated half a million redwood trees are in the UK, with more being planted. 研究发现,这些树木在英国的生长速度与其在其原生栖息地的生长速度相似,并且在英国生长时可以捕获大量的碳。 The trees have been found to grow at similar rates in the UK as in their native habitat and can capture significant amounts of carbon when grown in Britain.
