Wood "dies" when the living cells within the tree are no longer active, typically due to factors such as disease, injury, drought, or environmental stress. Once these cells die, the tree stops growing and the wood becomes more susceptible to decay from fungi, insects, and other decomposers. This process can lead to the eventual degradation of the wood structure over time. Ultimately, dead wood can provide habitat for wildlife and play a role in nutrient cycling within ecosystems.
