Positive relationships among aboveground biomass, tree species diversity, and urban greening management in tropical coastal city of Haikou. [PDF]
We investigated the relationship between tree species diversity and aboveground biomass using multiple regression, which revealed significant relationships across all five types of land uses. Aboveground biomass in green spaces was also correlated with anthropogenic factors, especially time since urban development, or site age, annual maintenance ...
