Northern Tree Habitats - Geophysical Institute
However, after seven growing seasons in Fairbanks, trees from the most northern homelands of the Dezadeash, Carmacks and Mayo areas of the Yukon are among the tallest, and the early starters from the south are now ranked at the bottom; although some of the trees from the Ft. Nelson area of British Columbia have maintained their relatively fast ...

Cottonwood and Balsam Poplar | Geophysical Institute
The Klukwan giant holds the national record for black cottonwood diameter. Its nearest rival, a tree near Salem, Oregon, does hold the national height record. The Klukwan giant belies the belief that trees tend to get smaller the farther north one goes. Both balsam poplar and cottonwood have value for fuel wood, pulp and lumber.

Feltleaf willows: Alaska’s most abundant tree
The range of the feltleaf willow, probably the most numerous tree in Alaska. From Alaska Trees and Shrubs by Les Viereck and Elbert L. Little, Jr.

More on Why Tree Trunks Spiral - Geophysical Institute
Granted, not all trees exhibit the same twist, but the majority of them do. The phenomenon can be likened to the claim that water will always spiral out of a drain in a counter-clockwise direction in the northern hemisphere. It is well known that you can make it spiral out in either direction, if you give it a little shove first.

Witches' Broom - Geophysical Institute
Witches' broom on spruce trees is caused by a rust disease (a kind of fungus disease). The rust lives on the spruce tree throughout the year. Each spring, small yellow pustules appear on the new needles of the broom. A strong sweet odor, which is easily recognizable, usually accompanies the maturation of these pustules.

The Kodiak Treeline - Geophysical Institute
Spruce trees planted on the islands by the Russians in 1805 are doing just fine and reseeding themselves naturally, although the total tree population hardly amounts to a forest. In recent years, trees have been planted at military bases along the chain, and the State is now shipping out seedlings for reforestation projects all over Alaska.

Black Spruce - Geophysical Institute
Black spruce are the climax trees on cold, poorly drained soils in Alaska and Yukon. They rarely exceed 45 feet (15 meters) in height or 9 inches (23 centimeters) in diameter. In a typical stand, the diameter of most trees is less than 5 inches, and growth is very slow. Half the trees in a 30-year-old stand may be less that 2 inches in diameter.

The majesty and mystery of Alaska yellow cedar
These trees, which can live longer than 1,000 years, grow on the rainy coast from the Oregon/California border through British Columbia and as far north as Prince William Sound. The giants have in many areas died in large numbers, puzzling scientists who later came up with a non-intuitive theory of what killed them.

Diamond Willow - Geophysical Institute
One wishing to learn more about willows can obtain Alaska Trees and Shrubs, authored by Leslie A. Viereck and Elbert L. Little, Jr., and published as Agriculture Handbook No. 410 by the Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture.

Tamarack -- Not A Dead Spruce - Geophysical Institute
Tamarack commonly grows on cold, wet sites and its growth rate and appearance do little to stimulate interest. When one of these trees finds itself on a better site, however, it shows a remarkable change of pace. Individual tamarack growing in white spruce stands may achieve a size comparable to white spruce 100 to 150 years old.
