Book excerpt: Trees in cities can contribute significantly to human health and environmental quality. In 2002, there were an estimated 26.9 million trees (36.9 trees / acre) within non-forested urban areas in Wisconsin. In 2012, the non-forest urban areas were reassessed based on 185 field plots. Urban forest attributes changed between 2002 and 2012 due, in part, to the expansion of urban areas, but also tree planting and natural regeneration, tree growth and tree mortality. Based on the 2012 data, urban forest structure, functions, health, and values in non-forest urban areas in Wisconsin (i.e., hereafter referred to as urban forests) were analyzed using the i-Tree Eco model. In addition, changes in tree populations greater than 5 inches d.b.h. were assessed (2002-2012). Results reveal that urban forests in 2012 have an estimated 42.8 million trees (45.9 trees / acre). Trees are considered as any woody plant with a d.b.h. ≥ 1 inch. Most trees are found in residential areas (69.2 percent). The most common species are common lilac (Syringa vulgaris), Northern white cedar (Thuja occidentalis), and apple species (Malus spp.). Wisconsin's urban forest currently stores about 4.0 million tons of carbon valued at $507 million. In addition, these trees remove about 212 thousand tons of carbon per year ($26.8 million per year) and about 7,030 tons of air pollution per year ($47.7 million per year). Trees in non-forest urban Wisconsin are estimated to decrease annual residential energy costs by $78.9 million per year. The compensatory value is estimated at $19.3 billion. In Wisconsin, 64 percent of the trees were within maintained areas with residential land uses containing the highest proportion of maintained trees. Overall, 1.1 percent of trees were recorded as standing dead. Between 2002 and 2012, one species that had a statistically significant increase in trees greater than 5 inches was silver maple (Acer saccharinum). Species with statistically significant decreases were white ash (Fraxinus americana) and sugar maple (Acer saccharum). Strengths and weaknesses of the national urban forest inventory and analysis protocol were identified and recommendations for intensification are made. Information in this report can be used to advance the understanding and management of urban forests to improve human health and environmental quality in Wisconsin.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Every Root an Anchor, writer and arborist R. Bruce Allison celebrates Wisconsin's most significant, unusual, and historic trees. More than one hundred tales introduce us to trees across the state, some remarkable for their size or age, others for their intriguing histories. From magnificent elms to beloved pines to Frank Lloyd Wright's oaks, these trees are woven into our history, contributing to our sense of place. They are anchors for time-honored customs, manifestations of our ideals, and reminders of our lives' most significant events. For this updated edition, Allison revisits the trees' histories and tells us which of these unique landmarks are still standing. He sets forth an environmental message as well, reminding us to recognize our connectedness to trees and to manage our tree resources wisely. As early Wisconsin conservationist Increase Lapham said, "Tree histories increase our love of home and improve our hearts. They deserve to be told and remembered."

Book Synopsis Urban Forestry by : Robert W. Miller
Download or read book Urban Forestry written by Robert W. Miller and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2015-04-06 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fully updated and greatly enhanced, the Third Edition of Urban Forestry addresses current issues in planning, establishing, and managing trees, forests, and other elements of nature in urban and community ecosystems. The authors discuss why we have trees in cities and how we use them, clarify the appraisal and inventory of urban vegetation, and extensively delve into the planning and management of public as well as private vegetation. As urban forestry continues to evolve as a profession, foresters and arborists can expect many challenges as well as opportunities. The continuing development of cities has become linked to a much greater emphasis on urban vegetation, the growing demand for recreation amenities within the urban environment, and the careful and successful management of vegetation in an urban ecosystem. New ways to incorporate the highly versatile urban forest resource into the urban fabric will undoubtedly benefit the lives of its residents.

Book excerpt: The first full, annualized inventory of Wisconsin's forests was completed in 2004 after 6,478 forested plots were visited. There are more than 16.0 million acres of forest land in the Wisconsin, nearly half of the State's land area; 15.8 million acres meet the definition of timberland. The total area of both forest land and timberland continues an upward trend that began in the 1960s. Red maple, sugar maple, and quaking aspen are the most common trees with diameters at breast height greater than 5 inches; there are 298, 250, and 244 million trees of these species, respectively. Aspen is the most common forest type, followed by sugar maple/beech/yellow birch, and white oak/red oak/hickory. This report includes detailed information on forest attributes and health and on agents of change such as the introduction of nonnative plants, insects, and diseases and changing land-use patterns.
