Robinson, Associate Professor of Meteorology at the <br />University of Illinois, for providing us with the cover's photographs. We also wish to thank the National <br />Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the National Weather Service for the many photographs <br />used throughout the document. <br /> <br />The following authors and organizations graciously permitted us to include their papers and publications <br />as appendix material: The National Arbor Day Foundation; American Forests; the National Arborist <br />Association; the International Society of Arboriculture; the Minnesota Shade Tree Advisory Committee, <br />Community Outreach Task Force; and the USDA Forest Service; Northeastern Area. <br /> <br />Without the word processing skills of Mrs. Lorene Bier, hundreds of pages of hand-scribbled notes would <br />still be in rough form. Funding for the field studies and publication of this mitigation manual were <br />provided by the USDA Forest Service, Northeastern Area, State and Private Forestry; the Illinois <br />Department of Conservation, Division of Forest Resources; the Illinois Agricultural Experiment Station's <br />project 10-664; and the University of Illinois, Department of Forestry. <br /> <br />A very special thank you to the efforts of Kathy Anderson, Program Assistant with the USDA Forest <br />Service's Northeastern Area St. Paul Field Office. Kathy's tremendous support, innovative ideas, and <br />constant enthusiasm allowed us to reach the light at the end of the tunnel in producing our Second <br />Edition. <br /> <br />113 <br />
