Host Philippe Cousteau looks at ways scientists are measuring the health of our forests. In New England, Philippe visits a white pine forest that is being threatened by invasive plants. At the University of California - Santa Cruz, students use sonic-tomography to look inside trees in order to detect any signs of disease. At the Pine Barrens of New Jersey, we learn about the pitch pine tree.
