    so sad you weren't able to reach your goal with pledges. keep persevering for this timely cause perhaps in other ways or funding sources. add solid PR so others will get on board through education and research. thanks anthony, todd & wendy. marilyn ambrose

    Thanks for your support! We knew we were being ambitious and we got 12% there. We'll try again - the trees will appreciate it.

    This is such valuable research. I'm sorry you are so far from your FR goal. Can it be extended? We have a 5 (or 6) trunk redwood in the backyard of our San Francisco home. It is very healthy as concurred by an arborist because supposedly we have an underground water source (creek) that runs through our neighborhood. But I'm worried that the water source, if there's one, is drying up like everything else. This probably sounds weird but we do love our redwood tree. It's magestic and the birds,squirrels and everyone enjoys it so much. I wish you the best in your FRing and research efforts. Best, Connie

    My apologies for the repeated posting, your site claimed that my original post had failed. Please wake up to the truth. Chemical weather modification/food supply control is the root of this issue. Cognitive dissonance will cause the end of our existence. We implore you to attend this event: http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org/major-northern-california-event-will-expose-global-climate-engineering/

    It never gets any less humbling looking up at them, thinking that they will stand there (hopefully) for hundreds of years to come. Thanks for your support!

    Spread the word about your study of our Redwoods. I have yet to meet a Californian that does not love this wonderful tree. Good luck with the funding!

    Thank you for the great research. I pray that we have more funding for more biology/ environment research. I will encourage my friends to donate as well. Thank you again for your research. I look forward to your analysis. PS I am not familiar with forestry but tree ring analysis seems to be quite expensive. Just curious why it is expensive, whether if there are cheaper or more efficient ways to do tree ring analysis. Thank you again.

    Hi Pureum. Thank you so much for your interest and support! Tree ring analysis is expensive because it is a very time-consuming process and takes a highly skilled dendrochronologist to complete. However, the results are tremendously valuable and there really is no other way to get long-term retroactive information on tree growth responses to changes in the environment. Thanks again!
