Plants of the Sierra Madre Fold-Thrust Belt
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ต.ค. 2024
- in Huasteca Canyon, just outside of Monterrey, Mexico, we see some of the wild stuff growing out of the cracks and fissures in ancient seafloors that have flipped nearly vertical as a result of crustal shortening (ie compression forces from the Southwest).
to see a great example of how a decollement is formed, see : • Fold thrust belt model...

I met Joey in a local coffee shop in my town Mission, Texas this past weekend. He was such a nice guy, I was legit starstruck. He talked to me for a few minutes and I told him how much I love his work! Cheers!
That's awesome! He seems like he would be really fun to talk to. I love what he did when he lived in Oakland just started bringing in composted soil and planting native grass and shrubs and trees
The mushroom man!! Love seeing the guy in your vids. He's such a cool person
Tony takes the most relatable stance on botany...
"It looks like a disturbing hairy dahng. Or maybe a hairless dog?"
Love how this excellent botany lesson gets broken up in the back quarter by a near-death experience exemplifying the negatives of the US healthcare system
Loved the fuzzy cactus rant about interactions. Hey you've been in such dry landscapes recently, you should come check out where I live in the Valdivian temperate rainforest of Southern Chile. Tons of endemism, cool geomorphology.. would love to hear your take on it.
You got a place we could crash for a night in between filming Fitzroya?
Can someone intelligent please document the current state of angiosperms and monocots in the southern Chilean forests? Asking for a friend.
He should check out the PNW too
@@CrimePaysButBotanyDoesnt sure thing!
@@CrimePaysButBotanyDoesnt Fitzroya are so damn cool. They grow fucking slow tho, so even if I plant them in Ireland I’ll never live to see them reach their majestic potential 😩.
Bienvenido a México Joey! Eres el hombre!
As a biologist, I love these botany/geography videos. Expands my knowledge in multiple directions. Plus, look at those goddamn mountains though.
Quickly becoming my fav youtube channel. Your personality and love for the environment are infectious my man. Great to see Alan making an appearance too. Nothing but love for what you're both doing, keep 'em coming
I don't think I've ever felt this educated and entertained to this great an extent at the same time, keep it up!!
Glad to see you back in your happy place in Nuevo Leon.
I have nothing worth adding that hasn’t already been said … but will add: love the running commentary blooper reel at the end … thought provoking, prophetic, and sarcastically brilliant all at the same time !!!
I'm so glad Dat you know this stuff so well, because if it wasn't For YOU, Mr Tony, I Wouldn't Have a CLUE About Plants of any freaking Region, Now I do Thanks To YOU👊 And those Sierra Madres are freaking Beautiful
"A leaf rosette with a bunch of sharp shit" hahah fuck i love agaves awesome vid, love ya work from Australia
Just saying if you ever decide to do a little group plant adventure with some of your audience I’d come along
Omg that would be so much fun
Wow what amazing geologic formations!
Woody Inflorescence? I used to hang out with him in high school.
Those mountains are amazing
The most Fantastic Sierra Madre Oriental!! I just love mamilarias in their crazy habitats. Keep enjoying Mexico and it's plants!
Epi saved my life once too. Glad all is well. Peace and joy.
Thank you,Tony-I learned something today!
Love the Geology 💕
A splash of geology with botany is always a bonus!
Once again, thanks for taking me somewhere I'll never go myself. Enjoyed the trip as always, cheers Joey. GFY. ✌🇦🇺
"Didja ever see mountains like that?" Yes! When I was living in Colorado. Loved cool shit like that.
Thank you for this video, I spent some time in Monterrey a couple of years ago and I have been looking for a video like this!
You can tell you really love botany with how much you suffer to do these videos for everyone.
Dang it! I was up for a road trip this weekend too LOL. Love all your videos
I should be so lucky to see that type of geology up close and personal in my lifetime !
Growing up in Monterrey you've always heard of poaching. 30 years ago the old timers said all the cacti where disappearing and heading to Asia
All the way back to the 90s? Omg since ancient times!
No matter how shit my day is, seeing that you’ve uploaded a new video is an uplifting joy which never disappoints
Looking forward to your Rio Grand Valley talk tomorrow night.
Amazing topography. Would love to experience that environment.
It looks a lot like Mt Whitney in California
This is one of his best!
For thorns, if you don't mind camo and some weight, those chem/bio overalls the military has are double layer ripstop and reinforced, 25 bucks new(ish). The carbon in them gives them a limited shelf life so there are lots for cheap.
See any wild Mexican pinguiculas? That would be very cool indeed! Nice botanizing.
Too dry here, but I've seen them in Oaxaca before
Yeah, I see that in Montana too... come up here man... it's total geologic fun! Plus, pathological plant fun too!
Fuckin love my mamillaria plumosa its really happy under my sunblasters making lots of little pups. It will never be SO FUZZY and gorgeous as those tho.
Always a pleasure to see Alan in your videos. Good stuff as always
nice job no legs were broken by Vinny, no one was whacked got smart on plants and shit. thank you, ALL stay safe
I love Mexico ssoooo much. ❤❤❤
🤣 😂 😅 Alan is busy looking for those "Elusive" 🍄 😎 👍🏼
What a beautiful ocean
8:48 it looks like feathers! That’s amazing!!
Awesome thanks Tony
I'm from that area and I can confirm that those stabbing lechuguillas are no fun. Trail walking / hiking there is pretty cool tho
I wanted to ask have you heard about the Western Ghats mountain range in Southwest India, has a high level of flowering plant richness with about 5800 species being found there and along with that a high level of endemism with about 38% of the flowering plants being endemic to the area, It's vegetation mainly is composed of montane and sometimes lowland rainforests, cloud forests, moist and dry deciduous along with scrub forests though the last two are only found in the eastern leeward - rain shadow side of the mountain. I know you're interested in the geology of the habitats which you document but I'm not so knowledgeable on that, from what I do know more of the geological places of interest are more towards the north while the south has more biological richness. Even though it's on the other side of the world would love to hear your thoughts on the place.
The geology lessons are great...and quite seldom included in botany discussions in this way.
Love the show! That terrane is structurally similar to the Ugab Zone in Namibia.
Joey the xoloitzcuintli is the Mexican hairless dog, but they have almost no hair at all. The ones that you showed were probably mixed with some local fluffballs.
"we're havin Big Fun" : ) great tune Tony, nice to see the dawgs out too.
I have awesome memories from that place. It was our first field trip of our Geology class at Civil Engineering School 26 years ago. I always enjoy when you show Northern Mexico-South Texas botany as I grew up there. I'd invited you for a carne asada and cold beers if I was still living in Monterrey. Keep up the good videos!!
Is that Alan Rockefeller I heard in the background 16:55? Yep!
Nice to see him again :-)
Happy 🌻❤ almost earth day Tony!!
This was great well done. My jaw literally stopped when you explained the strange mountain range and how it was on its side
Check out the Principles of Stratigraphy and Principles of Geology videos in this playlist, Christopher Whites videos are pretty good also
th-cam.com/play/PLgRoK-eyLjomaNEGNHjb1r8YWbUzVIskd.html
The 5 main geologic principles are:
Principle of Superposition
Principle of Lateral Continuity
Principle of Original Horizontality
Principle of Crosscutting Relationships
Principle of Floral and Faunal Succession (aka Principle of Fossil Succession')
Shit...beautiful area! You climbing around like a God damn monkey! Thanks for taking us along for the fucking ride! YOU ROCK!!!!
My Dad, an elderly biologist, but more of a chemist, would like to meet you. He’s still working his own business making handmade pastels into his 80’s in Cincinnati. Any chance you’d give an old man a treat and meet him? He’ll buy ya dinner or lunch and knows the best eateries.
If teachers in school taught like you, a lot more people would pay attention
Great job with the final words of the video!
Quelling my homicidal thoughts. THANKS TONY.
🔥 botanist on the planet 🌱
Last time I went to the Sierra Madre I got an explosive collar locked on me and had to leave a bunch of gold in a casino. Glad your experience was better
😯 What? When was that? I’m from Monterrey and around 2009-2012 it got quite dangerous (btw, some US officials found it useful to bring weapons to see what would happen and “locate” criminal activity... bunch of morons). But this is the first time I’ve read about explosive collars other than in movies.

I’m glad Alan asked about the cactus at 17:01 cause I was just wondering that at the same time
love them dogs..
Beautiful mountains and yellow tree combination, would love to paint it.
"Quell those homicidal thoughts"-- never had a more relatable youtuber bless
Scenery like that makes me feel like I'm wasting paint to attempt it 💚
Right as I'm thinking oh more of the butthole rock, Tony slides in saying yeah more of the butthole rock
I thought that was Mt Whitney, yes I've seen it before. Climbed to the summit some time ago. There was no life up there at the top. Cold and windy, even the birds had straggly wings.
Mexico suits u Joey. U seem happier in these past 3 episodes
Finding cool plants isn’t the hard part, it’s letting go
I absolutely love your videos Mr. Santore, you inspire me everyday to go out and learn what organisms are around me, that are normally passed over. My question is how do you accurately determine the species. Often I am easily able to determine the genus, but fail to distinguish between similar species. I rarely find online sources that help in species differentiation. How do I find this, do you have any reccomendations.
the way you said "Crevice" had me questioning my life on saying it wrong all these years lol naw probably just his accent haha
And I thought he was saying crevasse. 😂Dude, I don’t know geology. THE BIG CRACK IN THE MOUNTAIN.
Man i god damn appreciate you so much
Thanks for coming to arkansas and doing the colossus episode
wym, there's no arkansas video?
Go to Cuatro Cienegas, Coahuila, it's a great place to explore...
Treasure of the Sierra Madre by B Traven good book movie with Humphry Bogart was allright too
" I don't have to show you no stinkin' badges!!!"
good video! but i think you might need a lil wind shield thing for your mic
Awesome beauty 👍
Not only is this very educational, it’s funny as f*#k!
Could you find some species of pereskia and pereskiopsis? It would be really cool to see them in habitat and there's very little info about them on the internet
How much does each bromeliad contribute to the physical and chemical weathering of the rock it’s clinging on?
Cool mountains
I bet the bats that come pouring out of those caves is sight to see.
I wonder if it makes any difference for cacti to grow on limestone form different geological eras/periods? Would they accept any limestone regardless of the age or there are some limitations?
6:55 - with a little crack, anything can survive... 😂😂
I love this channel. I know Jack shit about botany and never really had an interest in it but still quite entertaining. Alright, GFY
I dunno, last time I went after the treasures of the Sierra Madre Father Elijah stole all my gear and tried to lock me in a vault.
Since you’re in Mexico, are you gonna look for a bunch of those butterworts?
Mexico is the real Oakland, they have more oak species than anywhere else and even 94 endemic (only grows there) species. The oaks migrated from Canada and diverged going east and west around the US/Canada border, and than sort of remerged towards the US/Mexico border creating alot of new hybrids. Section Quercus (white oaks) can breed within its own section and Section Lobatae (Red Oaks) can breed within its own section. There are 5 sections in the western hemisphere, Quercus and Lobatae being the largest. There is only one species in South America because they are migrating south, essentially migration by pollination.
It's really quite fascinating

Joey, man, those rectum jokes at the end there... Are you familiar with The Goatse Guy, or the "ass to ass" scene in Requiem For a Dream? Two absolute classics.
I don't really like pods but am listening to dosed
I wonder how many people will actually get that reference to the film 🤔
Cool stuff
The best Easter Egg!! TnM
I have a bunch of ephorbia antisyphilitica at home, it's flowering and smells like soap for laundry.
You show those mountains, with the striations after millions of years that are up there used to be horizontal. When we build our human things currently, as anyone keeping in mind the eventual changes that are going to happen to the earth, and if so, what are they doing to make these structures get along with the earth in the future? I know you’re talking about millions of years, but… I’m curious.
Modern humans didn’t even exist 500,000 years ago. All odds are we’re going to get extinct and replaced by other creatures well before ONE million years has gone by, let alone millionS.
You can watch plates moving in real time ...the Pacific plate is pretty busy shoving California up the coast and making the Sierras taller and taller. This is one of the reasons for the mudslides and landslides in the Sierras. Any plants or buildings on the hillside slide down into the valley as the rocks are pushed up. Same as happened in the Sierra Madres.
@@k33k32 I was aware of the fact that bridges and tall buildings are built with wind in mind, but never realized the earth had seeable movement. I think I’ll see if there is a video of the plates. I’m sure someone has filmed it. Why wouldn’t you?? Wonderful stuff here
@@kelliesaunders4905 There are lots of simulations of plate movement, but I'm not sure it moves at a rate that is detectable by use with our time frame. Maybe there is time lapse of the San Andreas fault?
@@k33k32 right on. If they haven’t done time lapse, now I want to know about the challenges preventing it.

The Vauquelinia looks like Toyon, but not in the same genus, apparently.
Yes same family.
Wish to see a unique badass looking aloes on future episode.
