TREE DECAY AN EXPANDED CONCEPT
TREE DECAY AN EXPANDED CONCEPT
Also, An Understanding of Gradations is Necessary
此外，須要了解這是漸漸變化的過程
Microscopic, wood-inhabiting
organisms and the long-lived, gigantic trees interact intimately in a long and
intense struggle for survival. This struggle starts with a wound and can
end with total decomposition of the wood. Many biotic and abiotic factors
are involved in the decay processes. It is difficult to determine where
one event or process starts and another ends.
微觀下，棲息在樹木中的微生物和巨大長壽的樹木為生存，長期激烈的密切互動。這個過程從樹木的傷口開始，在木材全分解結束。許多生物和非生物的因素參與樹木腐朽的過程。很難確定那個事件或過程是開始和結束。
The events and processes
overlap and mingle like the colors in a large spectrum or rainbow. Where
does one color stop and another start? The natural process of decay is
even more I complicated and it might be more accurately likened to a multidimensional
spectrum that is constantly changing over time. When we get too close to
some processes, they are changed because of our methods of study and
measurements.
這過程互相重疊，混成一片就像一個光譜或是彩虹顏色，那個顏色是停止和另一個開始?? 樹木腐巧的自然過程非常複雜，可能可以用精確的多維光譜表示是隨時間不斷變化。
我們改變研究方法和測量方式，更可以了解樹木腐朽的過程。
圖10. 我們必需要考慮樹木腐朽的模式是個整事件，而不是特定的事件
