The canopy of the tree spreads out so the maximum number of leaves are exposed to the sunlight.
Good luck with your search for information.

This is the same with the beech trees, the branches and leaves are positioned in such a way to obtain the maximum amount of light for photosynthesis, (conversion of sunlight and CO2 into food) if you stand under a beech tree and look up, there is virtually no light allowed through.

Do you mean stick out of the dirt? It can be that the soil is eroding or the branches are really big and higer above ground level than they should be. The best solution to protect them is to put sod or some type of mulch and lay it over the braches all around the tree. It makes it look nicer too. =)

Nearly every tree has branches which stick out, except for a willow

Don't the brances of all trees 'stick out' - to some lesser or even 'greater' degree?
