Arboriculture & Urban Forestry 44(5): September 2018 229 The Landscape Below Ground IV: International Conference on Tree Root Development in Urban Soils Where: When: What: Register: The Morton Arboretum (Lisle, Illinois, U.S.) 15–17 October 2018 Pre-conference workshops (15th) Conference program (16th–17th) https://thelandscapebelowground.com Since 1993, the Landscape Below Ground conferences have provided a forum for presentation of the latest research and management practices in all aspects of tree root development in urban soils. The impact on arboricultural practices has been significant. Many practices that are now commonplace, such as the placing of load-bearing soils that provide space for root growth beneath pavement, were introduced to international audiences at these conferences and through conference proceedings. Carrying on this tradition, the 4th Landscape Below Ground Conference, presented by The Morton Arbore- tum (www.mortonarb.org) and International Society of Arboriculture (www.isa-arbor.com), will be held 15–17 October 2018, in Lisle, Illinois, U.S. Like the three preceding conferences, this event will foster closer cooperation between disciplines and geographic areas, inform managers and policymakers about current research efforts, and have a significant impact on arboricultural practices. The program will include the latest research on: • • managing urban soil environments • • • • • root structure and stability tree production, planting and establishment infrastructure conflicts and solutions construction damage and preservation • planting site design Featured speakers include: • Michael Arnold, Texas A&M University • Nina Bassuk, Cornell University • Jason Grabosky, Rutgers University tree root development and management tree root system biomechanics L.R.
