What is Applied Tree Biology about?
<p>Many arborists learn tree work practices without fully understanding the biological and physiological principles behind them. However, outcomes for the health and longevity of trees are greatly improved when an arborist understands the science behind the care of tree root systems and crowns. In <i>Applied Tree Biology</i>, Drs. Hirons and Thomas draw upon their decades of experience in the laboratory, classroom, and the field - as well as the expertise of distinguished contributors to this volume - to provide those responsible for tree care with the scientific information that informs best practices for planting, pruning, soil decompaction, irrigation, and much more.</p> <ul> <li>Takes a multidisciplinary approach, integrating knowledge from plant biology, physiology, arboriculture, ecology, and more</li> <li>Provides a systematic presentation of fundamental tree biology and the scientific principles informing high quality tree care</li> <li>Presents accessible scientific information and best practices that help promote the health and longevity of trees</li> <li>Reflects the authors’ decades of experience as tree biology researchers and educators, as well as their yea
