Abstract Trees are an integral part of the urban green structure, providing a number of beneficial effects exceeding purely architectural and aesthetic functions. However, as growth conditions in cities differ considerably from growth conditions at natural sites, urban tree establishment has always demanded special knowledge and procedures ...

Bioaccumulation of heavy metals air pollutants by urban trees
International journal of phytoremediation, 2020Leaf and bark of trees are tools for assessing the effects of the heavy metals pollution and monitoring the environmental air quality. In this study, the possibility of using leaves and bark of two urban trees, namely, Ficus nitida and Eucalyptus ...

The role of air pollution and climate on the growth of urban trees.
Science of the Total Environment, 2019The urban environment features poor air quality and harsher climate conditions that affect the life in the cities. Citizens are especially vulnerable to climate change, because heat island and impervious exacerbates extreme climate events.

Summary A survey of published reports on urban park tree inventories in the United States and the United Kingdom reveal two types of inventories: (1) Tree Location Inventories and (2) Generalised Information Inventories. Tree location inventories permit managers to relocate specific park trees, along with providing individual tree characteristics and ...

The purpose of this chapter is to provide information and guidance for utilizing street tree removals; a “recycling” strategy that can potentially turn a cost-burden scenario into an income-generating opportunity. The strategy involves merchandising sawmill-size logs from street tree removals to sawmills or other companies that have unique uses for ...

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.

There is a growing evidence base that documents the social, environmental and economic benefits that urban trees can deliver. Trees are, however, under threat today as never before due to competition for space imposed by development, other hard infrastructures, increased pressure on the availability of financial provision from local authorities and a ...
