Water drawn up by redgums

[edit]

Hi there. Nice page on the Redgum. I recently visited the Desert Park at Alice Springs and one of the guides there gave us a talk on Redgums.

I can't recall now, but I think he said they suck up around a thousand litres of water a day. Sounds huge, and I may have got the figure wrong. But the statistic, whichever it is, was quite large, and would be a great fact to have on this page?

I'll try and keep searching for the figure. I spose I could phone the Desert Park? But if anyone had the figure, why not put it up?

that figure sounds about right , they tap into the water table, thats how they survive droughts.--Hypo Mix 12:00, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Red Gum Resin

[edit]

There is a resin produced by the red gum tree called red gum. It is used as a fuel and binder in many pyrotechnic formulas. Perhaps the page red gum should be a disambiguation page rather than a redirect to this page. --71.227.190.111 05:17, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]


According to my information the "gum" you refer to is called kino. Most eucalypts produce it, but is found in large pockets in red gum wood. Has apparently been used in pharmaceuticals for styptics and astringant gargles....MarkAnthonyBoyle 10:04, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Moved this from deforestation page as it wasn't deforestation by definition. Does it belong in Red Gum?

[edit]

Victoria and New South Wales's remnant red gum forests including the Murray River's Barmah-Millewa, are increasingly being clear-felled using mechanical harvesters, destroying already rare habitat. Macnally estimates that approximately 82% of fallen timber has been removed from the southern Murray Darling basin,[1] and the Mid-Murray Forest Management Area (including the Barmah and Gunbower forests) provides about 90% of Victoria's red gum timber.[2] —Preceding unsigned comment added by Clovis Sangrail (talkcontribs) 04:55, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This section contains a fascinating story but needs citations. It would also profit from a map or cartoon illustrating the sequence of events, it is hard to understand in its present form. Wouldn't it be best to remove this section and create a separate article from it? Lumasella (talk) 10:11, 15 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Snags in the Murray-Darling

[edit]

The paragraph under Ecology relating to snags uses outdated information. The reference for the sentence "However, the Murray–Darling Basin Commission has recognised the importance of snags as aquatic habitat, and a moratorium on their removal from the Murray River has been recommended.[12]" is from 1991. Resnagging of the Murray river has already been under way for a number of years.

Add to bushfood and/or bush tucker?

[edit]

I note that the seeds of this tree are eaten, and even though the seeds are very tiny, if it's used as a source of food, should this be added to the Bushfood page with a link from this page at the bottom, and this tree's name added to the list of bushfoods?

I was unable to determine if the indigenous Australians add the seeds, but if they did, then I'd suggest adding a note on this page under "See also" to view the "Bush Tucker" page with a link, plus add this tree to the "Bush Tucker" page as well.
