![Dead poplars by the Stratford-upon-Avon canal. They have been killed by thorough ring-barking, i.e., removing the bark around the tree's entire girth so that sap cannot flow to the tree's upper parts. It's possible that the trees were planted to dry out a low-lying waterlogged spot, but as they've grown they've abstracted so much water from the soil that the ground is subsiding and threatening the canal. Dead trees don't transpire so the water table will rise, reversing any subsidence. Just a guess.
