A study reveals that deciduous trees' roots remain active in winter

Until now, it was believed that the roots, along with the rest of the tree, stopped their activity and ‘went to sleep’ during the winter, but curious research published today in Nature Ecology and Evolution shows that roots do not rest at any time and continue to grow.
I need papers on rules how trees grow. Things like ratio from branch to subbranch in lengths and positions on the parent branch. Or that needle trees don't tend to split into even subranches. Also their angles etc.
Basically rules to use in Lindenmeyer Systems to make plausible trees.
I want to make an open source speedtree alternative.

I have been eagerly awaiting #ThickTrunkTuesday!!!
Anyone have insight on why this texture is so different than the upper trunk? #TreeQuestion #TreeScience #PNWonderland
