Trees are complex beings, which associate biological and mechanical behaviors to maintain their phytosanitary and stability. In addition, in urban conditions, its stability is also associated with the conditions of the soil, the planting site and the surroundings, since paving and the presence of urban equipment can affect the proper development and fixation of the roots. The current clim…

The maintenance of urban forests depends on a series of patterns and ecosystem processes, among which stand out the natural regeneration through propagation disseminated in the forest soil, in addition to the potential and germination of the seed bank. Urban forests do not have the same theoretical framework as native Brazilian forest systems, however, the growing demand for strategies fo…
Urban trees are fundamental to the quality of life in urban centers. However, there are often incidents caused by lack of planning, poor management or problems in the planting sites of these trees, causing poor root development. The objective of this research was to evaluate the influence of soil conditions on the distribution of the root system, considering trees of the same species plan…
There is a strong interesting of the forestry sector in anticipating the characterization of the wood quality that will be produced by their clones. The development of nondestructive technology to evaluate the wood quality is essential, not only for works based on forestry areas yield, but also as a tool to selections in genetics programs. The anticipation of the selection reduces, signi…

The PhD research project, developing in Brazil, addresses the important issue of early prediction of wood properties to be produced by the tree. This question is current and has great importance for the forestry sector, because the resources used in breeding clones or in processing timber could be directed more objectively, considering the quality of the material versus the wood applicati…
