I was more concerned with the changes that trees induce in the
enviornment.  Their ability, apparently, to draw water/moisture, and
their effect on the climate could be a real asset to the El Paso County
area.  It's difficult to find any concrete studies done in this area,
probably because I'm a layman, and not familiar with the usual avenues
of approach.  I would imagine that there would be some evidence in
Isreal, as well as China.  Are you aware of anything that I would have
access to?
