Dead wood, often referred to as heartwood, provides structural support and stability to a tree. As trees age, the inner layers of wood become non-living and dense, contributing to the overall strength and durability of the trunk. This heartwood helps resist decay and pests, allowing the tree to maintain its upright posture and withstand environmental stresses. Additionally, the presence of dead wood can also play a role in nutrient cycling within the ecosystem.
