Kvietimas į praktinį medžio skysčių (sulos) apytakos seminarą

I have the pleasure to announce that international Sap Flow Workshop "Monitoring tree reaction to environment: tools and their application in forest ecology and urban forestry" will be held in Riga in June 17-19, 2015.

This event is organized by the Society of Annas Tree School in cooperation with arboculture company Labie Koki Ltd, Latvian State Forest Research Institute "Silava" and ICT International Pty Ltd.

This event is intended to demonstrate the application of sap flow monitoring techniques in the fields of forest ecology and urban forestry. In other words, assessment and interpretation of tree water relations will be presented.

In forest ecology, this could be applied as a tool which helps to detect tree-climate interaction while in urban forestry - as efficient means to evaluate tree growing conditions in order to improve urban tree health.

In this workshop, presentations by authors of case studies and practical sessions of installation and maintenance of instruments will be given. Additionally, to observe tree reaction to mechanical stress, transplantation of a middle sized tree will be performed while monitoring sap flow and stem water potential.
