The emergent layer is called "emergent" because it consists of a few towering trees that rise above the main canopy of a forest, emerging into the open air. These trees, often significantly taller than their surrounding counterparts, are exposed to full sunlight and strong winds, making them distinct from the layers below. This unique position allows them to access more light for photosynthesis and supports diverse bird and insect populations that thrive at this height.
