<br>The Oxford dictionary says a layman is a ‘non-professional, non-expert’ with no need to live as much as standards. 1. My experience with useless standing trees began no less than 80 years in the past, climbing them as a boy. Duncan prefers to call managed lifeless standing timber snags and dislikes the term monoliths. However, [Wood Ranger Power Shears website](https://45.76.249.136/index.php?title=User:Pearl940754) Philip Wilson in ‘my bible’, The A-Z of Tree Terms, defines snags as stubs, and non-arboricultural and [Wood Ranger Power Shears website](https://chessdatabase.science/wiki/User:SabrinaWaechter) non-forestry dictionaries have included several other meanings for the word, even ‘debris snagged up in flowing water’ and ‘clothing torn or snagged up on thorns or barbed wire and so on.’ Therefore, while I agree our frequent language is stuffed with phrases that have several often completely totally different meanings, surely here is a case the place in tree phrases - and nearly confined to arboricultural use - a lifeless standing tree could be described utilizing a much better time period than snag. Philip Wilson’s A-Z defines a monolith as ‘a tree diminished to its most important stem’ and in his definition it may nonetheless be alive.<br> |

<br>English dictionaries outline a monolith as ‘a single block of stone, [Wood Ranger Power Shears website](https://bbclinic-kr.com:443/nose/nation/bbs/board.php?bo_table=E05_4&wr_id=260701) especially shaped like a pillar or [Wood Ranger Power Shears website](http://wiki.die-karte-bitte.de/index.php/Benutzer_Diskussion:KathiBigham14) monument, a large block of concrete or thing like a monolith being huge, immoveable or solid uniform.’ Mono clearly means single and lith is stone. Surely all we need to do is find a easy descriptive time period that may solely check with a managed useless standing tree? Let’s hope the concepts that follow inspire some thoughts from arbs. This sort of tree administration belongs to the arb world and the arb world ought to declare professional possession by finding the suitable time period for it. As lith means stone, why not name a dead standing tree a mono-stub or mono-stump? Mono-trunk or mono-candle (French is chandele) are additionally choices. Mike Ellison has prompt mono-ligna, mono-lignum, mono-lig or mono-stack. 2. Oak root plate with what remained of the supporting root system after the tree had been standing useless for perhaps several a long time.<br> |

<br>3. William the Conqueror’s Oak at Windsor, perhaps 1000 years previous. How on earth are you able to name this part of our nation’s history a snag? 4. Ancient dead elm monolith. My bet is the occupants of the house who decided to leave this tree standing had been very fascinating folks, contemplating the security paranoia and mindless obsession with tidiness that prevail within the 21st century. Bring on the younger generations! 5. Dead standing oaks where Roy Finch did plunge cuts in limbs and Bill Cathcart’s team at Windsor then winched the limbs off to leave monoliths with moderately natural-trying broken stub ends. My experience with useless standing timber started at the least eighty years ago after i climbed into the lifeless hollow standing oak in photo 1 and collected either a barn or a tawny owl’s egg. In those days, all small boys residing within the countryside collected birds’ eggs. The tree remains to be there in the present day, and obviously the encircling timber at the moment are of a substantial measurement and probably more and more provide it some protection.<br> |

<br>Also, oak has durable heartwood and [Wood Ranger Power Shears website](https://docs.brdocsdigitais.com/index.php/Grass_Shears_Comfort_Rotatable) subsequently it's almost definitely that any supporting useless roots will decay much slower than in other species. Whilst we're on the subject, it is attention-grabbing to notice what number of arbs by no means differentiate between bushes with heartwood and ripewood when it is kind of apparent that the distinction can be very related within the case of useless standing bushes, and [Wood Ranger Power Shears website](https://adwokat.krosno.gubin.eu/2021/01/23/justice-you-get-justice-in-the-next-world-in-this-world-you-have-the-law/) the supporting root systems of conifers cannot be forgotten: it is more than doubtless they decay slowly like oak. Many picturesque scenes of the Scottish glens have dead historical granny pines, bleached and seasoned, that usually withstand very high winds. Photo 2 exhibits an oak root plate with what remained of the supporting root system after the tree had been standing lifeless for maybe a number of many years. It begs the question had been such seasoned buttress roots utilized by early man as plough [Wood Ranger Power Shears website](https://wikirefuge.lpo.fr/index.php?title=Utilisateur:MarceloBrandenbu)? Sadly, Duncan’s pictures show trunks wherein all of the limbs have been removed by the very outdated technique of flush reducing to the principle stem (‘Towards guidance on snags’, [Wood Ranger Power Shears features](http://taxwiki.us/index.php/Paul_McCartney_Is_Dead:_Music%E2%80%99s_Most_WTF_Conspiracy_Theories_Explained) [Wood Ranger Power Shears manual](https://covid-wiki.info/index.php?title=Benutzer:FloydNapper283) [Wood Ranger Power Shears website](https://pipewiki.org/wiki/index.php/The_Pagan_Origin_Of_The_Word_Allah._Islam_Is_Paganism_In_Monotheistic_Wrapping_Paper) [Wood Ranger Power Shears manual](https://glencoenews.com/places/hollywood-heating-and-air/) for sale ARB Magazine 198). I say ‘outdated’ as a result of a different strategy was developed as way back as 1997. Bob Warnock, Manager of Ashstead Common for the Corporation of London, wanted to take care of dozens of lifeless standing historical pollard oaks (which had been tragically killed in a collection of bracken thatch fires over time) for historic, conservation and well being and safety causes.<br> |
