ghostsofevolution | CTL 9E - California Sequoias to Inland Pacific NW: Is it too dry? @ghostsofevolution | Uploaded September 2017 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
This is the fifth segment of the video series documenting that California's Sequoia and Redwood trees thrive in Pacific NW — an example of "assisted migration" poleward well underway. Filmed in 2016 and 2017, assembled August 2017. Host: Connie Barlow. Click on timecoded topics:
