Kauri Tree
The kauri tree (Agathis Australis) is a large, slow-growing tree. The tree is found in the North Island of New Zealand and parts of Australia.
Kauri trees are among the world’s mightiest trees and they can live for over 2,000 years. They grow to a height of 50 m tall with trunks that can measure up to 16 m in diameter.
For centuries, some of the largest and oldest kauri trees in rural Northland have been buried under a thick layer of mud that has helped to preserve their trunks and branches. Now, these ancient giants are helping to provide scientists with unique insights into how our climate has changed over time.
