Thermal Profiles of Chainsaw Hollows and Natural Hollows during Extreme Heat Events

Thermal Profiles of Chainsaw Hollows and Natural Hollows during Extreme Heat Events

Loss of hollow-bearing trees threatens many hollow-dependent wildlife. To mitigate this process, artificial chainsaw-carved hollows (CHs) are often created in dead trees, yet little is known about their thermal profiles. We measured temperatures inside 13 natural hollows (8 live and 5 dead trees) an...
