Treeology 101

admin — Tue, 22 Jan 2019 14:26:34 +0000

Tim wrote this book Treeology 101: How Using a Compass and The Sun Can Reveal Your Stunning Home so you will know if your home is in a Climax Forest or not, and knowing how much sun each section of your yard gets are the FUNDAMENTAL KEYS to having the yard of your dreams, done through selective culling of dangerous, duplicate, ugly or problematic trees. Then and only then can you consider what kind of replacement trees you want to plant, something YOU decide instead of the builder, the previous owner, or even bird droppings. A planned yard with proper Treescaping, that is, selecting specific trees for their beauty, hardiness, light requirements and space needs, is far superior to a yard with trees too close, trees in inappropriate spaces or downright dangerous trees due to a host of factors the homeowner may not be aware of.

admin — Tue, 08 Jan 2019 03:50:21 +0000

The basis for this book is from a 30-year oceanographer/physical scientist career, logging over 600,000 miles at sea on over 60 cruises employing the evolving technology to gather deep ocean data in physical, geophysical, and bathymetric sciences. My position as an in-house contact for many of the outside principle investigators who came in on ONR contracts kept me in touch with evolving thoughts about ocean science. 70 something of my papers were published with them. I have given talks/poster sessions worldwide to a variety of venues, all of which involved marine geomorphology. In my career I have reviewed proposals for both the NSF and the ONR. I have been told by various scientists that, along with one other physical scientist, that we knew more about the ocean floors than anyone else...
