From the Back Cover
Wind has profound effects on the growth and form of trees and causes extensive losses in forests in many parts of the world. This book is the first to bring together the meteorology, mechanics and physiology of why and how trees are damaged by wind. This important subject has advanced considerably in the last twenty years as a result of the application of physical principles to an age-old problem, and as a result of some ingenious measurements of the reactions of trees to mechanical forces. This is essential reading for practising foresters and arboriculturists, as well as for researchers and advanced students of these subjects.

Hardback. Condition: New. Winds over topography and inside forests produce mechanical reactions in trees, and eventually failure in stems and roots when stressed by storms. The mechanics of these reactions and the physiological responses to wind in leaves, stems and root systems, and the important ecological consequences of wind-throw are described in this book. Management techniques of forests in windy climates are detailed, including the use of models predicting risk of wind damage. It is clear that the whole field of wind effects on trees has benefited from recent multi-disciplinary research, and significant advances in knowledge of most parts of the subject have been made in the last decade. This book brings the up-to-date theories, methodologies and results together, and gives the reader a sense of coherence in this complex but fascinating field. Seller Inventory # LU-9780521460378
