Abstract

The complexities of our deciduous forests, though constantly under the scrutiny of investigators from various fields of botany, present many problems which are poorly understood. Each area, regardless of size, presents new problems which may or may not be peculiar to the area in question. For this reason, it is imperative that as problems arise, they be treated in a quantitative, comparative manner. The primary object of this study is to illustrate the limits placed upon various species of tall trees by environmental factors introduced as a result of the direction and angle of the exposure, as well as the elevation, with special reference to sugar maple.
