 Tree Growth Project Data 2023-2025 Data I have collected over the past 3 years since the start of the Tree growth project working with Forest Research.Gov & Sylva Foundation as a Stewardship Scientist. This is Just one of the Research Project's  I am working on at Present with forest Research looking at the effects of Climate Change & the resilience of our Woodland to Changes in Weather.   Below are the charts results for the Sessile Oak Trees. Tree Girth Diameter measurements are in cm  (Note 2023 was a Mast Year for the Oaks with a bumper crop of Acorns)  Tree 34 seem to have steady growth over the 3 years This is also the Largest Oak within the woodland apart from the Car Park Oaks. Tree 24 had a reduction of growth in 2024 but recovered in 2025 Tree 24 is the smallest Oaks on the Research growth project a young Oak tree.  Tree 23 seem to have steady growth over the 3 years Tree 22 seem to have steady growth over the 3 years Tree 21 seem...

Tree Growth Project

Image
Tree Growth Project  The objective of this project is to collect valuable information and data about tree growth.  Tree growth is a key ecological parameter of forests strongly linked to a range of influencing factors.  By examining differences in tree growth between years, (including potential species-specific growth in response to events such as drought or frost),  these measurements can improve our understanding of the response of trees to changes to woodland management and climate change across the country.  The project is being done in partnership with  forestry commission research Dept & Sylva Foundation Lead scientist: Dr Matthew Wilkinson Forest Research Dept Stewardship Scientist John Williams Narrows Wood Owner Data collection via MyForest APP Sylva Foundation Six Oak trees have been fitted around Narrows wood with Special Girth Bands that will measure the growth of our Oak trees as Part of the wider Project By the Forestry Commission around t...

 Pied Flycatcher Project (Gwybedog brith) Pied Flycatcher Protected in the UK under the Wildlife and Countryside Act, 1981.  Priority Species under the UK Post-2010 Biodiversity Framework. link to Outside info page on the Pied Flycatcher Pied Flycatcher (Ficedula hypoleeuca)  The valleys and hillsides of Wales are a good place for breeding Pied Flycatchers in summer. The pied flycatcher is a small, black-and-white bird of mature woodland with a preference for oak trees.  They are  slightly smaller than a house sparrow. Males are mostly black above and white below, with a bold white patch on the folded wing. Females have the same basic patterning, but are browner in colour. It is a summer visitor from April and May onwards, and breeds mainly in western areas of Britain. Pied flycatchers may be seen sitting patiently on a perch, waiting for a chance to fly out and catch their insect prey in mid air.  They also search for insects on tree trunks and on the grou...
