WIND STABILITY ANALYSIS OF URBAN TREES

Acta Horticulturae, 1999
We 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.

Stemflow chemistry of urban street trees

Environmental Pollution, 1997
pH 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.

Urban trees are sinks for soot: elemental carbon accumulation by two widespread oak species.

Environmental Science and Technology, 2019
Urban trees could represent important short- and long-term landscape sinks for elemental carbon (EC). Therefore, we quantified foliar EC accumulation by two widespread oak tree species--Quercus stellata (post oak) and Quercus virginiana (live oak)--as ...

Carbon storage estimation of tropical urban trees by an improved allometric model for aboveground biomass based on terrestrial laser scanning

Urban Forestry & Urban Greening, 2019
Current estimations of the carbon stored by urban trees are usually based on allometric models developed for natural forests. However, urban trees grow in different conditions, and their architecture might differ, thus models developed specially for ...

Urban Trees: Which Future?

2015
Urban trees inevitably grow under conditions different from the conditions of the natural habitat. Compressed soil, bad water regime of soils, human activity, emissions and traffic reduce the life span of trees forcing researchers to select new species or cultivars for urban conditions. But, is this the right way?

Trees in urban landscapes

2008
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 ...
