Dr. Thomas Smiley: “Trees Make Me Happy”
BY W. JIM CORTESE, BCMA
Alex Shigo, father of modern arboriculture, burst on the arboricultural scene in the early 1980s with his theory of compartmentalization of decay in trees, CODIT. With this he changed our collective thinking about trees. He created a revolution in our field of arboriculture. That revolution is continuing today with new generations of researchers helping create new knowledge of trees and moving the bar ever forward. Dr. Thomas Smiley is one of these folks.
