Tree Biomechanics for Practical Arboriculture Auckland Workshop

Have you ever wondered why trees fail?

Or given any thought to the effect your latest pruning operation will have on tree structural integrity?

Trees are self-optimising structures, and human interventions such as construction damage to root systems, or poor crown pruning, can disrupt the balance in a tree’s biomechanical characteristics and ultimately have dire consequences, such as complete tree failure. 

NZ Arb are proud to announce that we are running two biomechanics workshops in February hosted by world-leading experts in the field. Dr Andrew Koeser (University of Florida) and Dr Jason “Jake” Miesbauer (Morton Arboretum)  

Koeser and Meisbauer will deliver two one-day workshops in New Zealand in February. A must-attend workshop for anyone involved in tree management decisions. Groundies, climbers, consultants and tree managers are encouraged to attend. This opportunity won’t come around again. Tea, coffee and snacks will be provided but you will need to bring or buy your…
