Ash dieback is the most destructive tree disease to ever reach the shores of the UK. It continues to have profound impacts on the ecology of the UK landscape. Additionally, it has an economic impact caused by the death of millions of trees.
This group of videos gives a systematic overview of ash dieback. First, we explore common ash, the tree that has been affected by the disease. This includes its identification, ecology, traditional management, and its distribution.
We continue by exploring the disease that has caused so many issues. We look at the lifecycle, symptoms, and government responses to the disease. Finally, we look at management techniques, the future situation, as well as sources of guidance and advice.
