Insect collecting from the canopy raft in French Guiana. In addition to collecting during the day, Phil spent two nights in the canopy on the raft and endured a pouring rain one of the nights. The spectacular sun rises from the top of the trees made it all worth it; especially seeing the hot air blimp carrying the research sled beneath it and skimming the treetops!

When the wind would kick up a few hours later (with the heat of the sun), the blimp would return and be put away to avoid being blown around on the launch pad.

51. Birding From Peru's Canopy Walkway Birding ecotour to Peru s Amazon region, based around a canopy walkway. Photographs, species list, and maps. http://www.earthfoot.org/places/pe001.htm

In Amazonian Peru: Birding from a Canopy Walkway Host: Lucio Pando When: Year round Length of stay: As long as you wish Fee charged: It's a detailed story, so here goes: The Explorama company which employs Luico also owns exclusive touristic rights to the Canopy Walkway, part of which is shown at the right. Therefore, users of the remotely located Canopy Walkway are obliged to stay in one of the on-site Explorama lodges or camps, and to sign up for a kind of "package." Moreover, especially because of insurance matters, visitors cannot simply climb onto the Canopy Walkway and spend the day with their own binoculars and bird-fieldguides identifying birds on their own, without being accompanied by one of the Explorama guides, of which Lucio is one. EarthFoot generally does not promote such packages, but in this case the experience offered is so exceptional, the organization has such a fine record of environmental and social responsibility, and Lucio is such a fine host, that we are making an exception. Explorama offers a variety of packages involving different mixes of lodges and camps (from very fancy to elemental), and different lengths of visit. If the package quoted here does not feel comfortable to you, you can ask about other options when you e-mail Lucio through his Host Helper Peter Jenson.

A trolley usually consists of a metal frame with one or more shivs ( wheels ) that the trolley runs on. The load or user is connected to the trolley via a carabiner or another form of engineered link and a harness . Occasionally trolleys have a handhold or handlebar although this system does not provide any fall protection and should only be used on zip lines that are low to the ground and over water.

57. The Canopy 1a Introduction to the rainforest canopy, including plants and animals, with photographs. http://www.rainforesteducation.com/life/canopy1.htm

Rainforest Trees and The Canopy: an introduction. Canopy Page 2 The trees are the first thing one notices upon entering the rainforest. They are huge - up to 150 feet tall! Trees in the rainforest must grow rapidly to reach the sun at the canopy. To be competitive, they grow tall without growing as wide as trees in moderate climates. They have developed several methods of supporting great height without requiring great width. Having "prop roots" is one method of doing this. The other method of supporting a tall tree is with "buttress roots". Because these trees are narrow and may not have any branches for the first 50 feet or so, they appear even taller than they are. This gives you some idea of how big these roots were. We thought this was a big tree until a few days later..... ...until a few days later when we found a really big tree! If you ever get a chance to visit the Tikal Biosphere Preserve in Guatemala, don't pass it up! Contrary to popular belief, tropical rainforest trees are not taller than all trees in temperate climates. This is an old-growth cedar in the Broken Islands, off the west coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. It was as awesome as any tropical forest tree I have ever seen!

59. Spherical Dome Helps Kentucky Researchers Study Forest Canopy Artificial forest canopy is expected to make light measurements more accurate. http://www.ca.uky.edu/agc/news/2000/Jul/canopy.htm

Spherical Dome Helps Kentucky Researchers Study Forest Canopy Lihua Wang makes final adjustments to the fisheye camera that will record sunlight penetrating the dome. "Eventually we will be able to use the newly-gained knowledge to learn how to manage forests." Calvin Liu, forestry researcher, UK College of Agriculture By Haven Miller LEXINGTON (July 21, 2000) - Measuring the amount of light that penetrates through the leafy canopy of a dense forest is tricky business. That's because outdoor conditions such as wind and clouds can't be controlled. But scientists at the University of Kentucky College of Agriculture believe they have discovered a way to make forest light measurements more accurate. The scientists have constructed an artificial forest canopy. To picture it in your mind, imagine a large, black paper umbrella with hundreds of holes punched in it. Because the size and number of holes is predetermined, the light that passes through them can be precisely measured. "In the forest we have less control of the environment and therefore subsequently the measurement," said Calvin Liu, researcher in UK's department of forestry. "That is the reason we wanted to build a model to do the research – it gives us more control."
