Canopy research

Canopy research is the field of scientific research based upon data collected in the canopy of trees.

Objects

Chief discoveries

Canopy research is a relatively new scientific field which was hampered for a long time by lack of means of access to the tree canopies and lack of appropriate means of housing researchers.

Climbing gear, tree houses, canopy walkways, cranes, airships and inflatable platforms resting on the treetops have lately overcome these barriers.
