HOW WARM WEATHER AFFECTS SAP COLLECTION IN MAPLE TREES The ideal weather conditions for sap collection are daytime temperatures around 40 degrees Fahrenheit and nighttime temps below freezing. Sustained warm temperatures provide an environment for a rapid, massive release of sap by trees over a very short period oftime.
The formation of maple sap is determined by tree physiology.

LAKE TROUT COULD EAT THEIR WAY BACK TO PROMINENCE IN GREAT Lake trout reproduction in the Great Lakes has been handcuffed for years due to chronically low levels of thiamine, a fat-binding agent key to a healthy egg membrane, according to the study. Fish have to consume a healthy ratio of fat and thiamine to lay viable eggs – alewife are fatty and often low in thiamine, Happel said.
