Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

The fungi find their home in and around the roots of trees, and form filaments in the earth. Like the silk threads of a spider's web, they connect and intertwine in the soil, providing each tree with a connection to its neighbours.
Through these networks, trees are able to share nutrients, steal nutrients and communicate with one other. This mesh of fungi is also know as the Wood Wide Web.
