Root system decay reduces tree anchoring, enabling complete specimens to collapse suddenly. Symptoms of tree mortality feature absence of foliage during growing seasons, loose bark separating from trees, while decay organisms throughout root zone. Insect activity in dead wood, woodpecker holes, echoing tree sections when tapped indicate advanced decay.
