Trees will generally fall, or at least have broken branches, when hit by a storm. But that does not mean for coconut trees. Trees identical to the torpic climate have exceptional durability during bad weather. But how can that right happen?

A geochemist gives an explanation. It is said that the coconut tree is different from other large woody tree species. This makes the coconut tree can withstand the storm.

"Instead, you will find a spate of spongy tissue scattered, not regulated," Hope Jahren said in his autobiography entitled "Lab Gril", quoted by Live Science on Monday (18/09/2017).

Most woody trees have circular patterns when they are big bodies each year. But coconut trees are different, some of them are easily formed and others can easily be folded and returned to their original position.

"The lack of conventional structures is what gives coconut the flexibility and makes it able to adjust ... with a slow wind to blend into a terrible storm," Jahren wrote.

The structure makes coconut trees thrive in warm, windy tropics. The genus of coconut trees is known to exist as many as 188 species consisting of 2585 species.

However, not all coconut trees have the same strength in every region. Coconut trees that are moved to a new place may lose its power.
In addition, the wet soil surface also contributes to weakening the grip of the root of the coconut tree so that it can be allowed to be uprooted by the wind sweep.

Pohon pada umumnya akan jatuh, atau setidaknya memiliki cabang yang patah, saat dilanda badai. Tapi itu tidak berarti untuk pohon kelapa. Pohon yang identik dengan iklim kalimantan memiliki daya tahan yang luar biasa selama cuaca buruk. Tapi bagaimana bisa begitu benar terjadi?

Ahli geokimia memberikan penjelasan. Dikatakan bahwa pohon kelapa berbeda dengan jenis pohon kayu besar lainnya. Hal ini membuat pohon kelapa bisa menahan badai.

"Sebaliknya, Anda akan menemukan serentetan jaringan spons yang tersebar, tidak diatur," Hope Jahren mengatakan dalam otobiografinya yang berjudul "Lab Gril", dikutip oleh Live Science, Senin (18/09/2017).

Sebagian besar pohon kayu memiliki pola melingkar saat mereka berukuran besar setiap tahun. Tapi pohon kelapa berbeda, beberapa di antaranya mudah terbentuk dan yang lainnya mudah dilipat dan kembali ke posisi semula.

"Kurangnya struktur konvensional adalah apa yang memberi kelapa fleksibilitas dan membuatnya bisa menyesuaikan diri ... dengan angin yang lambat untuk berbaur dengan badai yang mengerikan," tulis Jahren.
Strukturnya membuat pohon kelapa tumbuh subur di daerah tropis yang hangat dan berangin. Genus pohon kelapa diketahui ada sebanyak 188 spesies yang terdiri dari 2.585 spesies.

Namun, tidak semua pohon kelapa memiliki kekuatan yang sama di setiap daerah. Pohon kelapa yang dipindahkan ke tempat baru mungkin kehilangan kekuatannya.

Selain itu, permukaan tanah yang basah juga berkontribusi melemahkan cengkeraman akar pohon kelapa sehingga bisa dibiarkan tercerabut oleh angin menyapu.

Wah santai dibawah pohon kelapa jos tu..

Udah di vote ya tolong di follback dan vote @ronaldsteem89 terimakasih salam stemian dari lampung 😁 . .

Wow! What a great deal to know the extent to which coconut trees can resist storm. Good work
