Birch trees are adapted to winter much like other trees. The damage normally caused by the harsh weather is mitigated most notably by the dropping of leaves. As well, they can enter a state much like hibernation in bears, changing at the cellular level and taking advantage of the energy released from freezing water to survive through the winter.
