The world's tallest trees are tricking gravity to survive drought by widening their internal water pipes and rewiring their water transport system
For decades, scientists believed the world's tallest trees faced a fundamental disadvantage during drought. The higher a tree grows, the harder gravity makes it for water to travel from the roots to the leaves, leading researchers to assume that towering rainforest giants would be especially vulnerable as the climate becomes hotter and drier.
