Annual rings

Subtropical rainforest

After falling from the leeward side, the forest will eventually become a sand dune.
On the east coast, you can see sand falls flowing down everywhere.
It seems that the speed is not as fast as before, but I take a breather in the wonder of nature.
The Island is a sand Island that I witnessed alive.

A powerful ally who knows everything about Pile bury.
Only three people occupy an empty forest.
The forest where the light shines is also deep enough that the light can no longer reach at 4 pm.
The third visit in the morning of the next day.
I am overwhelmed by the big tree looking up.
A tiny human like an ant in nature.

Take a quick walk around the forest trails you visited on your bus tour.
Be admired by the shining rainforest and immediately lag behind the tour.
Somehow unsatisfactory.
The next day, we will go backwards from the exit under the guidance of Hiroko Kobayashi, who rushed from Brisbane.

Stroll through the forests of the sand island.
A timber collection site where forestry was once thriving.
Forestry is closed to preserve nature as a World Heritage Site.
The Satin trees used for the renovation of the Suez Canal are overgrown.
A large tree grows in the forest where the light shines.

The Island has more than 40 perch drakes in the groundwater lake.
The huge desert swallow’s plants and shrubs stand in the dunes.
Even if I pull it to see if it is dead, it doesn't hurt.
Sand carried by strong winds piles up to the top.

Signpost in the forest

This forest is a heritage that will be passed down to the next generation 

After logging the forest, it becomes a bald mountain

There are many countries that have awakened to planting trees in a hurry.

Why do forests grow in the dunes?

A large amount of sand becomes a groundwater layer

Becomes a huge sponge water storage tank
