Looking Beyond the Leaves: An Introduction to Tree Identification

Look beyond the leaves: an introduction to tree identification
This webinar is intended to help people look at and identify woody plants. Many of us are familiar with certain tree leaves, but leaves are helpful in identifying trees but only when they are accessible. The intent in this program is to highlight attributes that woody plants have that can be used with diagnostic keys and samples or in the field to distinguish one species from another. The webinar will cover what might be considered comparable to the first lecture a classroom full of forestry students might get in their course on dendrology (the study of trees).
