Tree Deaths
Tree deaths occur when a tree's vital systems fail, often due to factors like diseases, pests, drought, or physical damage. This disrupts the tree’s ability to take in water, nutrients, and sunlight, ultimately leading to its decline. Over time, the tree's structure weakens, causing branches to fall and the tree to decay. Recognizing these signs helps in managing forest health and safety, and understanding that tree death is a natural part of the life cycle, making room for new growth and biodiversity.
