Summary
| Description |
English: This picture represents possible evidence of one of the emergent theories surrounding the phenomena of crown shyness. Crown shyness is a feature observed in some tree species, in which the crowns of fully stocked trees do not touch each other, instead forming a canopy with channel-like gaps. Interestingly, this phenomenon is captured in my hometown, a small town in Japan. However, crown shyness is largely observed in tropical climates, such as in forests of D. aromatica in Malaysia. This picture could be possible evidence that the phenomenon is not species-dependent, but rather produced due to abrasive contact between trees subjected to high-speed winds. I felt such speculation in this photo. It would interesting to promote this further in the field of scientists who study such. It was an honor to observe this while merely strolling with my sister in the park. |
