The aerodynamics of urban trees
Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 1992Abstract This paper reports the preliminary results of an investigation into the aerodynamics of urban trees. The background literature is briefly reviewed, particularly with regard to the work that has been carried out on woodland conifers. A mathematical model of the tree dynamics in winds is then set out.

Stemflow chemistry of urban street trees
Environmental Pollution, 1997pH and ion concentrations (Na(+), K(+), Mg(2+), Ca(2+), NO(-)(3)) in the stemflow of the evergreen broad-leaved tree, Ilex rotunda, planted in the median strip of a highway and nitrogen oxides concentration in the air in an urban site were compared with a suburban site in Fukuoka city, Japan.

PEGSMOR is an acronym for the life of a tree: planting, establishment, growth, structure, maturity, overmaturity, removal. Since this text addresses PEGSMO, it is appropriate to include a chapter on the “R” factor. Tree removals are an essential arboricultural responsibility.

WIND STABILITY ANALYSIS OF URBAN TREES
Acta Horticulturae, 1999We present an analysis of the stability of urban trees under the effect of wind pressure. The modeling is led using the yield design theory from a cinematic approach ('by the exterior'). The family of ruin mechanisms retained are very simple block rotation, as in-situ observations show.

The influence of trees on the perception of urban squares
Urban Forestry & Urban Greening, 2015Abstract The balanced relationship between nature and urbanity in cities concerning ecology, sustainability, climate, and well-being, is an omnipresent aspect of modern urban planning. Accordingly, the perceived value of trees in urban squares is a crucial, albeit hard to quantify, determinant of successful plaza design.

Human settlements have always implied a drawback for the natural state of the environment. But in the course of replacing forests, meadows, marshes by buildings, streets, marketplaces, men also developed a strong desire to incorporate natural elements into urban design: The early Egyptians, e.g., planted trees in regular symmetrical rows along their ...
