Description:
This book is designed to be used as a textbook for Urban/Community Forestry courses and a handbook for Shade Tree Commissions, tree wardens, State and National Forestry Services, and professional societies. The chapters have been written by experts in each subfield who are active practitioners. John Kuser has taught Urban Forestry, Dendrology, Forest Ecology and Silvics, Forest Genetics, and Introduction to the Forestry Profession at Cook College, Rutgers University, for 30 years. He has advised approximately 10 undergraduates per year, and 2-3 M.S. and Ph.D. candidates per year. His fields of interest include regional genetics of Atlantic White-cedar, Eastern White Pine, Coast Redwood and Dawn Redwood, on all of which he has published several papers each. Designed urban environments and community forests are the only structures that appreciate in size and value, whereas all other built structures depreciate. The quality of life and sense of community that comes from our urban and community forests is enhanced when we can derive benefits from the living landscape.
