Oxygen is released into the atmosphere during photosynthesis. At night, some is consumed again by the tree. But the tree releases more oxygen than it needs itself. Deciduous forests release 15 to./year/ha of oxygen, coniferous forests up to 30 to./year/ha into the atmosphere.🌳🌲

As watermen, we spend a lot of time around maps, old, new, digital, and especially nautical. The "Gulf of Mexico" first appeared on the map in 1550, while “Lake Ontario” comes from Indigenous Iroquoian languages, adopted on European maps by the 17th Century. #WetTribe #TidetotheOcean #MapMonday

Happy Wednesday.

In case you forgot:
We live on a planet where whales sing songs that travel for miles.
Where trees can recognize their own offspring and protect them underground.
Where dolphins give each other names and where lightning can create glass in the sand.
Where horses can read human emotions.
Where rain has a smell before it even arrives and where the ocean can glow in the dark.
And where stars we see might not even exist anymore.
