Modelling short‐rotation coppice and tree planting for urban carbon management – a citywide analysis
The capacity of urban areas to deliver provisioning ecosystem services is commonly overlooked and underutilized. Urban populations have globally increased fivefold since 1950, and they disproportionately consume ecosystem services and contribute to carbon emissions, highlighting the need to increase urban sustainability and reduce environmental impacts of urban dwellers. Here, we investigated t...

متن کاملSymbiont modifies host life-history traits that affect gene flow.
The evolution of herbivore-host plant specialization requires low levels of gene flow between populations on alternate plant species. Accordingly, selection for host plant specialization is most effective when genotypes have minimal exposure to, and few mating opportunities with individuals from, alternate habitats. Maternally transmitted bacterial symbionts are common in insect herbivores and ...
متن کاملSpecies for Christmas Tree Planting in Virginia*
Christmas trees can be grown through out the state, and growers are located in all regions. Se lec tion of the proper species, however, is important. Soil conditions and gen er al climate are the primary considerations influencing species selection, but other characteristics, such as con sum er pref er ence, species characteristics and require ments, condition of the planting site, and the pres...
متن کاملImplementing Municipal Tree Planting: Los Angeles Million-Tree Initiative
Urban forests are increasingly being seen as an important infrastructure that can help cities remediate their environmental impacts. This work reports on the first steps in implementing a million tree program in Los Angeles and the ways such a biogenic-living-infrastructure has been approached. Numbers of studies have been done to quantify the benefits of urban forests, but little has been writ...
