TPO 23
Both the author and the lecturer discuss the reasons why the population of yellow cedar trees has declined for more than a century. While the author states three possible hypotheses for this decline, the lecturer disagrees with these hypotheses, casting doubt on every single point he made.
First, the author states that insects called beetle are responsible for cedar bark trees' decline since they attack them, eating the wood. In opposition to this, the lecturer brings up the idea that healthy cedar bark trees are resistant to insects more than any other trees. Furthermore, they produce a powerful chemical poisonous to insects. Thus, it is highly unlikely that these insects damage such tress.
Second, the author believes that brown bears used trees aggressively, eating the sugar of the tree bark. However, the lecturer disagrees with his claim, stating that the cedar bark trees of mainland and island where there are no brown bears have declined as well. Therefore, such trees have declined with or without the existence of brown bears.
Finally, the author argues that climate affects the root system of these trees, being the reason of tress' decline as growing roots are sensitive to cold weather. On the contrary, the author possesses the view that the trees in low elevations where the weather is warm have declined more than trees in high elevations where the weather is cold. Hence, this can easily be inferred that climate change cannot be the cause of such trees' decline.
