Professional arboricultural expertise for scientific research and canopy exploration.
The forest canopy remains one of the least explored frontiers in terrestrial ecology. Our team provides specialized access and support services for researchers, scientists, and educators studying canopy ecosystems. With our expertise in safe tree climbing techniques and canopy access, we help bridge the gap between scientific inquiry and the challenging environments of the forest canopy.
Whether you're conducting biodiversity surveys, installing monitoring equipment, or collecting samples for analysis, our certified arborists can help you access the canopy safely and efficiently while minimizing impact on the trees and their ecosystems.
Forest canopies host up to 50% of terrestrial biodiversity, yet remain understudied due to access challenges. The canopy environment contains unique microclimates, specialized organisms, and ecological interactions that are critical to understanding forest ecosystems as a whole. Our services help researchers overcome the logistical barriers to studying these important environments.
We specialize in the careful installation of scientific equipment in tree canopies, including:
Our team can assist with collecting various samples from specific canopy locations:
We can help establish longer-term research infrastructure in forest canopies:
We work closely with researchers to understand their specific needs and develop customized solutions that balance scientific objectives with tree health and safety considerations. Our team has supported research projects ranging from climate change monitoring to wildlife habitat studies and canopy biodiversity assessments.
Beyond research support, we also offer educational canopy access programs for schools, universities, and environmental education organizations. These programs can include:
These educational experiences provide unique opportunities for hands-on learning about forest ecosystems and can be tailored to different age groups and educational objectives.
