Mother Trees Are Intelligent: They Learn and Remember

Scientific American And ecologist Suzanne Simard says they need our help to survive Advertisement Few researchers have had the pop culture impact of Suzanne Simard. The University of British Columbia ecologist was the model for Patricia Westerford, a controversial tree scientist in Richard Powers’s 2019 Pulitzer Prize–winning novel The Overstor y. Simard’s work also inspired James Cameron s vision of the godlike “Tree of Souls” in his 2009 box office hit Avatar. And her research was prominently featured in German forester Peter Wohlleben’s 2016 nonfiction bestseller The Hidden Life of Trees. What captured the public’s imagination was Simard’s findings that trees are social beings that exchange nutrients, help one another and communicate about insect pests and other environmental threats.

(Photo : Mali Maeder) The Remarkable Discovery When Suzanne Simard made her remarkable findings - that trees had the ability to communicate and cooperate via subterranean networks of fungi - the scientific initiation underreacted. Though her doctoral study was released in the Nature journal in 1997 - a coup for any researcher - the discovery that trees are more beneficent than competitive was discharged by many as if it were the misunderstanding of an anthropomorphizing hippy. Presently, at 60-year-old, she is a professor of forest ecology at the University of British Columbia and her research of over three decades as a forest detective is well-known worldwide. In her recent book titled Finding the Mother Tree, which is a scientific memoir as engrossing as any HBO drama series - she wants it known that her work has not a been brief experience: I want people to be aware that what I ve found has been about my entire life.
