Diffuse Component of the Solar Ultraviolet Radiation in Tree Shade

This paper has provided the first set of quantitative data of diffuse erythemal UV and UVA in tree shade at a sub-tropical Southern Hemisphere latitude. Over the summer, approximately 60% of the erythemal UV radiation in the tree shade is due to the diffuse component. Similarly, approximately 56% of the UVA radiation in the tree shade is due to the diffuse component. In the tree shade these dif...

NURSERY PRODUCTION OF TREES IN CONTAINERS1 by William Flemer III Princeton Nurseries

--The possibility of growing sizeable shade trees (1%" and over in caliper) in containers is exciting to both arborists and nurserymen. Advantages include reduction in transplant shock, ease of retail storage, extension of the planting and shipping seasons, and less need for nursery space. However, problems include difficulty in overwintering in northern climates, root girdling, potbound trees,...

Nitrogen and Substrate Assessment For Pot-in-Pot Production in the Intermountain West1

We investigated optimum nitrogen rates and different growth substrates for short-term fi nish production of container and bare root shade tree liners in a pot-in-pot production system in the Intermountain West. In one study, nitrogen ranging from 0–27 g N·tree–1 (0–36 lbs N·1000 ft–2) as urea was applied to quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides), ‘Autumn Blaze’ maple (Acer × freemannii ‘Autumn Bla...
