What We Are Reading Today: The World Atlas of Trees and Forests

Authors: Herman Shugart, Peter White, Sassan Saatchi, and Jerome Chave 

The earth’s forests are havens of nature supporting a diversity of life.

Shaped by climate and geography, these vast and dynamic wooded spaces offer unique ecosystems that shelter complex and interdependent webs of flora, fungi, and animals.

The World Atlas of Trees and Forests offers a beautiful introduction to what forests are, how they work, how they grow, and how we map, assess, and conserve them.
