		The oak is also impressive in stature, with species ranging in mature height from 35 to more than 100 feet and the world champion red oak living up to the Quercus' popular title as King of Trees by reaching 134 feet.
		Oak species are sometimes divided into one of two major groups, the red oaks (Erythrobalanus) and white oaks (Leucobalanus).
		And in the East, the Stone Mountain oak grows only on the rock surface of Stone Mountain, near Atlanta, Georgia, and in a few similar areas, while a species like the Oglethorpe oak is rare enough to be found only in isolated areas of South Carolina and Georgia.

	Emory oak - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Emory oak (Quercus emoryi) is a species of oak common in Arizona, New Mexico and western Texas (Big Bend National Park), USA, and northern Mexico south to Durango and San Luis Potosí.
		It is a live oak in the white oak group, retaining its leaves through the winter until the new leaves are produced in spring, and is a large shrub or small tree from 5-17 m tall.
		The tree is named after the United States army surveyor, Lieutenant William Hemsley Emory, who surveyed the area of west Texas where it was discovered in 1846.

	Live oak (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-12)
		Live oak is a common name for a number of unrelated oaks in several different sections of the genus Quercus that happen to share the character of evergreen foliage.
		The name live oak comes from the fact that evergreen oaks are still green and "live" in winter, when other oaks are dormant, leafless and "dead"-looking.
		The name is used mainly in North America, where evergreen oaks are widespread in warmer areas, along the Atlantic coast from Virginia to Florida, west along the Gulf Coast to Texas and across the southwest to California and southwest Oregon.

		We are investigating the potential importance of 4 precipitation redistribution scenarios on woody plant/grass interactions at an oak woodland/semi-desert grassland ecotone in southeastern Arizona.
		Oak seedling emergence was complete by 30 September (end-of-summer), with means of 51, 20, and 61% in C, S{sub dry}, and S{sub wet} plots, respectively; corresponding survival of emerged seedlings was 91, 95, and 94%.
		Results to date suggest that Emory oak recruitment is directly linked to the quantity of monsoonal precipitation, and that climate change-induced shifts in seasonal soil moisture may affect tree-grass ratios.

		They range from the Emory oak of the southwestern United States and northern Mexico, which is so mild it can be used without processing, to some fl oaks with very bitter acorns, requiring lengthy processing to render edible.
		Generally, the best acorns to harvest are those of the white oaks, such as the swamp oak, Oregon white oak, and burr oak, as they contain less bitter tannin.

	Changes in Transpiration by Emory Oak Following Tree Harvesting (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-12)
		Transpiration by mature- and sprout-forms of Emory oak (Quercus emovyi) was estimated by the sapflow velocity method on two adjacent sites, one unharvested and the other harvested for filelwood, in the oak woodlands of southeastern Arizona.
		On a per-hectare basis, about 1,900 liters of water were transpired by mature Emory oak on the unharvested site, while 3,150 liters of water were transpired annually by the mature trees and post-harvesting stump sprouts.
		One factor contributing to the greater transpiration of Emory oak in the harvested stand is likely the occurrence of a large number of vigorous post-harvesting sprouts.
