Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book reports on the largest-ever study conducted on the effects of lightning strikes on trees and soil. The author, an expert in forestry, gathered data over a five-year period from across the United States, looking at both the National Forests and the country as a whole. They ha…ve identified over 80 species of trees in the US that are susceptible to lightning strikes. The bulk of the information was collected from strikes on National Forests, where lightning is the second leading cause of wildfires, after human activity. The book compiles data from these incidents, cataloging the different types of trees impacted, including how often they are struck, how often they ignite, and how severely they are damaged. There is also analysis of the conditions that make a tree more likely to be struck, including its height, proximity to other trees, and moisture content. This information is presented alongside a discussion of the phenomenon of lightning, including different strike patterns, and theories about what makes some trees more susceptible than others. The author concludes that while any tree can be struck by lightning, there are certain species that are more vulnerable due to specific characteristics like height, isolation, and moisture content.
