8. Identification of response patterns in the impulse tomography in tipuana (Tipuana tipu (Benth.) O. Kuntze / Identificação de padrões de resposta à tomografia de impulso em tipuanas (Tipuana tipu (Benth.) O. Kuntze
As árvores desempenham papel fundamental na qualidade ambiental das áreas urbanas. Como a floresta urbana é alvo constante de ações inadequadas de manejo, tais como podas inapropriadas, técnicas que visam avaliar a qualidade dos indivíduos e o risco de queda de árvores são fundamentais para a diminuição de possíveis danos causados aos equipamento
