#EnfieldOakLatest Following the casual felling by contractors for #MitchellsandButlers owned Toby Carvery following false claims the tree was dead, the tortured stump is resprouting. Toby Carvery is under pressure to install a £10k sprinkler system to keep the shoots alive. M&B decline to comment!

A 500 year old oak tree, on the ancient tree inventory, has been felled for "health & safety" reasons by a Toby Carvery in an Enfield park. Pub chain owners Mitchells & Butler say they "did the decent thing". Enfield Council describe the felling as criminal damage. "The tree belonged to Enfield".

After some days visiting a few burnt areas in northern Argentinian Patagonia, here are some species that resprout from the base after a wildfire: Lomatia hirsuta (Proteaceae), Aristotelia chilensis (Elaeocarpaceae), Schinus patagonica (Anacardiaceae), Nothofagus antarctica (Nothofagaceae)

#Sequoia and Sequoiadendron: Two paleoendemic megatrees with markedly different adaptive responses to recent high-severity fires

Although most trees in western USA conifer forests are killed by high intensity crown fires, most California coast redwoods survive by resprouting (photo by Jon Keeley, 2 years after the CZU Fire in Big Basin State Park).

Sequoia sempervirens (redwood; world's tallest tree) is well adapted to high-intensity crown fires (eg 2020), but Sequoiadendron giganteum (giant sequoia; world's most massive tree) is adapted to surface fires only!

So I'm switching up streams and introducing a chatting/podcast element into FFXIV because it stops me from burning through the game.

I'll also be doing a ReSprouting session where I'm gonna start again on Gilgamesh with an Alt - Talandar.

And hopefully I can go back to playing some StarCraft

All along the seafront near Dunboy, Beara: an example of the insane waste of time and energy in cutting invasive rhododendron without immediately treating the freshly stumps with herbicide.

It's all rapidly resprouting, and very soon the situation will be back to square one: an utter disaster.

a couple of these i hope i can do that. some of these are so damn big. i cut them all down to the stump last fall and they are resprouting

We examine plant traits through the lens of fire science.

Traits such as resprouting and serotiny help plants thrive in fire-prone areas.

🧪 Happy to share a link to our Tansley Review on wood nutrients: underexplored functional traits. nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.... We highlight the enormous variation in wood nutrient concentrations among species, links to masting, resprouting and ecosystem carbon via decomposition.

2) Wesley Cruz then presented the research he has led within the CERFogo Team, looking at ecological strategies of trees in response to experimental burning (focusing on resprouting dynamics across regimes and traits influence on tree fire tolerance, recently published at doi.org/10.1002/ajb2...)

so far i'm having a hard time explaining to the zumpkins that i do not in fact want them to keep resprouting in the compost bin.

Interesting paper! Fire-induced resprouting increases within-individual phenotypic and epigenetic variability, with fitness implications

The guy who did the original planting did, and I’ve got a lot of stuff resprouting from that. I also sowed a mix in between some perennials, but I’m thinking of pulling some of it because the weeds are growing into the annuals I sowed.

There are herbicides you apply to the cut stump to prevent resprouting. They're sold as "stump and vine" killers and often include a sort of swab to apply the liquid to the cut surface.

Once of the few nice things about the fire that went through Big Basin Redwoods is that it really cleared the views of these magnificent trees.
A grove of resprouting trees towers into the sky, while charred logs and fresh growth emerges from the forest floor. Some fingers in the foreground are "pinching" Colton, who is in the distance inside the hollow, burned trunk of a standing redwood tree.

The postfire recruitment of Carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua) I saw 1 month postfire (left) it is now growing well & healthy 2.5 years later (right)

While postfire resprouting is common in this species, postfire recruitment is not that common

American Chestnut in Cherry Springs State Park in PA. This is the biggest one I have seen. There are plenty repeatedly resprouting from the base in the woods near me (MA) but they never seem to get much thicker than my wrist before the blight gets them.

Visit Dr. Adriana Hernandez and @fukamit.bsky.social poster (P105) on Monday! They are investigating the post-burning effects of #chaparral ecosystems, and after year one, they were surprised to find an exciting #fire follower, invasives, and many taxa resprouting! #Botany2025

After a wildfire, plants have three main ways to bounce back:
🌱 Resprouting from surviving tissues
🌾 Regrowing from seeds stored in the soil
🍃 Recolonizing via seed dispersal
But how do these strategies interact? And can they complement each other? (2/7)
