Emergents is a term given to specific trees that are grown in the 5th layer,the emergent layer, mostly in tropical rainforests. There is a total of 5 layers:
The Undergrowth layer: made up of grasses, ferns, mosses and fungi. 0m -4m
The Shrub layer: made up of tree saplings and moddy plants 5m
The Understorey layer: Trees have narrow oval-shaped crowns, also made up of young trees of the emergents and canopy layer 7m- 14m
The Canopy Layer: wide, shallow and umbrealla shaped crowns form a continuous leaf cover called a canopy.15m-29m
The Emergent layer: Their crowns appear above the canopy layer. 30m-50m
Trees in the Emergent layer, grow taller to reach from sunlight as very little of sunlight hits the bottom layers of the rainforests because it is very dense. Hence the taller they grow, the more sunlight hit the tree
