The Silviculture of Trees Used in British Forestry (2nd Edition)
Many books have been written about trees that grow in Britain. They range from guides for identification to books that have been lavishly illus- trated by talented photographers and artists. One of the best known of the former group is Alan Mitchell’s (1974) A Field Guide to the Trees of Britai...

| description |
Many books have been written about trees that grow in Britain. They
range from guides for identification to books that have been lavishly illus-
trated by talented photographers and artists. One of the best known of the
former group is Alan Mitchell’s (1974) A Field Guide to the Trees of Britain
and Northern Europe and its successors, and among the latter is Thomas
Pakenham’s (1996) Meetings with Remarkable Trees. Numerous publications
by the Forestry Commission also provide much basic information that can
be useful when selecting species for specific sites.
Few books, however, cater particularly well for the person who seeks
detailed information about the silvicultural characteristics and requirements
of individual species. Among the authors to do this were M.L. Anderson in
his Selection of Tree Species, which was first published in 1950, and Macdonald
et al. (1957) in their Exotic Forest Trees in Great Britain. The information they
provided about species, though still very useful, has inevitably become some-
what dated as techniques have changed and knowledge has increased.
More recently, Ray (2001) and Pyatt et al. (2001) have produced a
computer-based ecological site classification that has proved invaluable in
assisting the selection of species, as well as indicating how species might
respond to climate change. It is based upon matching a four-climatic vari-
able (accumulated temperature, moisture deficit, windiness and conti-
nentality) and two soil variables (moisture and nutrient regimes) with the
requirements of 31 possible species of tree. In addition, the shade tolerance
of each species is taken into account. Yet computer programs, however
sophisticated, can never substitute for educated and informed thinking,
knowledge and understanding. |
