Scientists also discovered that dying trees may dump their resources into the network. And if a tree is attacked by a bug, for example, it can release chemical signals through their roots.

For the first time ever, researchers have mapped the underground network of microbes connecting forest trees around the world using an enormous data set of more than 1.1 million forest plots.

Right now, networks using high-end 10 Gigabit Ethernet switches would have fewer cables connected into them than a fat-tree network, which would require 100 separate cables for 100 low-speed links.

Therefore, they support each other. ... A tree’s childhood could last as long as 200 or 300 years. Then the tree, with this very slow youth growth, can become 1000 years old, up to 10,000 years old, ...

Old-growth trees are much more than just an imposing sight to encounter in the forest, though many of them most certainly fit ...

The network also helps nutrients flow to resource-limited trees "like family units that support one another in times of stress," Birch noted.
