AIM
The aim of this project is study the various canopy architectures
exhibited by trees in different regions.
Architecture literally means art of building. In the context of
canopy, architecture means the overall profile of the leaf cover
over the steam- its shape, appearance and its formation.
The canopy architecture depends upon a number of factors such
as climate, topography, soil and living beings. In all the basic
communities there is a vertical layering or stratification of
plants. In thick forests such as tropical rain forests trees from
three or four storeys or layers of their canopy. It avoids
competition for light and space.
The study of canopy architecture is an important subject; hence
the same has been selected for the present project.
