Reference excerpt

Johann Gerd Krüssmann (1910–1980) was a German dendrologist and author. Krüssmann worked as dendrologist from 1935, and from 1946 was the owner of a nursery and part-time horticulture teacher at the Horticultural Vocational School in Wesel and the county vocational school in Dinslaken. The Ellerhoop-Thiensen Arboretum was established in 1956 by Erich Frahm, its owner, in cooperation with Krüssman. The standard author abbreviation Krüssm. is used to indicate this person as the author when citing a botanical name.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Johann Gerd Krüssmann

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Johann Gerd Krüssmann claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Johann Gerd Krüssmann before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Johann Gerd Krüssmann ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Johann Gerd Krüssmann

In research: Johann Gerd Krüssmann appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Johann Gerd Krüssmann in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Johann Gerd Krüssmann is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1910 births, 1980 deaths, 20th-century German botanists, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Johann Gerd Krüssmann outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
