A-Z of tree terms

[philipwilson]

You may like to know about Tree Terms - arboricultural definitions, which gives the definitions of about 3,000 terms used in British arboriculture. Having developed it recently I would welcome feedback, especially suggestions to make it better. If you look up a term and it isn't there - please let me know!

Hello Phillip, welcome to the site.

 

I think this is a fantastic resource and must have been a huge piece of work to put together. Well done

 

Picked up on it a couple of months ago. Wish I had had access to it whilst doing study a couple of years ago.

 

I haven't got the book yet, but will certainly look in to it.

If I see anything that I think would be of benefit on the index I'll let you know.

Very impressive Phillip.

 

You missed out 'butchering', but only about half of us on here need that word....

Thanks for the welcome, David. I'm flattered to be a junior member - most people think I'm getting on a bit. If you do buy the book I suggest you get it direct from the treeterms website - no booksellers commission there.

Good, David, I'll add 'pseudosclerotic layer', possibly within the entry 'demarcation zone' or possibly on its own depending on how the rewriting turns out.

 

You've earnt yourself a mention in the acknowledgments of the second edition (if there is one), so please let me have your attribution: DH of the City of London ... ??

 

Thanks again,

Philip
