Publisher's Synopsis
Growth In Trees is a book written by Daniel T. MacDougal in 1921 that explores the growth patterns and processes of trees. The book is divided into three parts: the first part discusses the anatomy and physiology of trees, the second part examines the environmental factors that influence tree growth, and the third part looks at the practical applications of tree growth research. In the first part of the book, MacDougal delves into the structure of trees, including their roots, stems, and leaves. He also explores the physiological processes that allow trees to grow and reproduce. The second part of the book focuses on the environmental factors that affect tree growth, such as temperature, light, and water availability. MacDougal discusses how these factors can impact the growth and development of trees, and how trees have adapted to different environments. In the third part of the book, MacDougal examines the practical applications of tree growth research, including the use of trees for timber production, landscaping, and conservation efforts. He also discusses the importance of understanding tree growth patterns in order to better manage forests and protect them from disease and other threats. Overall, Growth In Trees offers a comprehensive look at the growth patterns and processes of trees, and provides valuable insights for anyone interested in forestry, botany, or environmental science.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
