Warsaw: Scientists have recently discovered a completely new type of wood.

According to media reports, scientists have discovered a type of wood that can turbocharge the ability to store carbon in trees.

This wood is found in tulip trees, which is a nanoscale wood structure between hardwood and soft wood called "midwood".

According to scientists, the structure of this wood explains why it is so effective in storing carbon.

Scientist John Lakzakowski and his colleagues at the Jagelonen University in Poland investigated the nanoscale structure of 33 types of living wood samples of trees in the Botanic Garden at the University of Cambridge in the UK.

They froze each sample in a slash nitrogen in which the samples were kept at a temperature of minus 210.

They found that hardwood trees, such as oak or birch, have macrofibrils about 15 nanometers in diameter, while softwood trees have large macrofibrils of 25 nanometers or more diameter.
