For decades ecologists, physiologists, tropical biologists have been interested in the structure, function and inhabitants of the forest canopy. Unfortunately, for nearly as long, this ecosystem seemed inacessible. Using balloons, ropes, towers and cranes scientists have begun to penetrate this dense foliage, allowing for a detailed account of life in ths world.
