	Conifer cones - Wikipedia
		The female cone structure varies more markedly between the different conifer families, and is often crucial for the identification of many species of conifers, in as much as seeing the foliage alone may be insufficient to differentiate between closely related species.
		This distribution is thought to improve chances of cross-fertilization, as pollen is unlikely to be blown vertically upward within the crown of one plant, but can drift slowly upward in the wind, blowing from low on one plant to higher on another plant.
		In some conifers, male cones additionally often grow clustered in large numbers together, while female cones are more often produced singly or in only small clusters.

	Conifer
		CONIFER and her sister ships, commonly referred to as "one-eighties", served as the backbone of the Coast Guard fleet for over fifty years before their replacement.
		Conifer's heritage can be traced back to the late 1930's, when the U.S. Lighthouse Service initiated a series of preliminary designs for a ship to replace their aging fleet of lighthouse tenders.
		Conifer's area of operation was modified to include the entire coast of North Carolina, and the re-supply of the Diamond Shoals and Frying Pan Shoals lightships.

	IUCN
		Conifers are one of the world's most important resources of timber.
		Conifers occur on all continents except Antarctica, but their abundance is unevenly distributed both in terms of individuals and taxa.
		In Chapter 2 we return to this theme and analyse the data to indicate 'conifer hot spots' or areas where there is a combination of high conifer diversity and threats.

	Modifying Conifer Antennas for Wireless Networking
		The antennas we're using are made by Conifer (now known by the name of their parent company, Andrew Corporation), and were used in Australia by a pay-tv company called Galaxy.
		The most common Conifer antenna used by Galaxy is the 18dBi grid, while the 24dBi grid is a little less common.
		However, the Conifer antennas used by Galaxy were designed to operate at a different frequency than wireless networking, and have a down-convertor integrated in the feedhorn.

	Conifer Bark Beetle - Landscape Nursery and Urban Forestry - UMass Extension
		In the Northeast, the primary concern with conifer bark beetles is associated mostly with weakened pines in the forest and landscape.
		Most conifer bark beetle species are very small (often 1-3 mm) with one of the largest being the fl turpentine beetle (Dendroctonus terebrans (Olivier) at about 5/8" (8-10 mm) in length.
		Many conifer bark beetle species overcome what is left of a tree’s natural defenses by utilizing a strategy known as mass attack.

	The Ecological Role of Fire in Sierran Conifer Forests (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		Before a discussion of the various functions of fire, it is important to consider the relationship between fire intensity (the rate of energy release) and the impact of fire.
		The influence of fire on wildlife in various Sierran conifer forests is largely related to fire's role in (1) stimulating germination or sprouting of species of shrubs, herbaceous plants, or trees that are useful to mammals or birds for food or cover; or (2) making openings in the forest understory or canopy that favor wildlife.
		Fire was a key environmental factor that initiated new successions, controlled species composition and age structure of the forest, and produced (in concert with other natural agents) the mosaic of vegetation that supported the animal components of these communities.

	Western Conifer Seed Bug - Penn State Entomology Department Fact Sheet
		The western conifer seed bug’s consumption of Douglas fir seeds and seeds of various other species of pine results in a substantial loss of seed crop.
		The western conifer seed bug frequently congregates on the outside of buildings in late summer and early fall in the northeastern United States (particularly in New York and Pennsylvania).
		Where the western conifer seed bug is a persistent nuisance in homes, the best method of control seems to be mechanical exclusion.

	Subalpine Conifer Forest of the Colorado Plateau
		In contrast to mixed-conifer and ponderosa pine forests found at lower elevations, natural fire is relatively uncommon in subalpine conifer forests.
		Subalpine conifers are adapted to the strong winds and frigid temperatures atop the high peaks and tablelands of the region.
		The high probability of intense fires in southwestern conifer forests in the coming decades suggests that new aspen stands will develop again soon, changing their status from declining to increasing.

		In fact, this dwarf conifer is commonly found in most garden centers and nurseries throughout much of the United States, Canada, Europe and elsewhere, as compared to many of the other types of dwarf conifers.
		The ultimate height is 6' or better with a 6'-7' spread and an annual growth rate of only 2"-3" per year, which makes it an ideal plant for almost any landscape for foundation use or as accents and specimens in beds or borders.
		Similar in growth habit and size to the weeping Norway spruce it also is one of those dwarf conifers that you either like or dislike and it is hard to work into an average landscape setting without stealing the show, due to its striking unusual form.
