Assessing the applicability of formulas to detect hazard trees: Callus wood improvement in red maple (Acer rubrum)
Arborists use formulas to estimate the risk of failure in trees with decay. The study investigates the appropriateness of using formulas to determine the risk of tree failure. Two variables were examined, whether trees improve wood toughness in the vicinity of mechanical stress concentrations, and h...
