Urban Trees and Their Relation to Air Pollution

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

One of the most studied services of urban forests and trees is their positive effect on air quality, which is expected to improve human health by removing gaseous air pollutants and particulate matter (PM) (Weber 2013). A prominent measure in urban development plans that is meant to achieve this goal is to increase the number of trees. But trees can be found in various forms and shapes, both at canopy and leaf level. Moreover, their uptake activity differs widely and depends on species-specific characteristics as well as their susceptibility to environmental stresses. How does the overall impact of trees on local air quality depend on species’ specific traits, and what potential tradeoffs connected to these traits might decrease other environmental services, like carbon uptake?
