In this episode, we explore the critical field of tree risk assessment, discussing various methods used to evaluate the potential risks associated with trees. The articles we cover focus on several assessment techniques, including Visual Tree Assessment (VTA), Quantified Tree Risk Assessment (QTRA), Static Integrated Analysis (SIA), and sonic tomography. These methods help arborists and forestry professionals assess tree stability, wind resistance, and identify potential defects that could lead to tree failure. While trees are living structures and the risks associated with them can never be fully eliminated, responsible assessment and proactive management can significantly reduce these risks.Background info: Cox. 2019.
