Yet, not all trees are immune to extreme weather events, such as droughts and heat waves, especially in cities. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Can urban tree re-inventories inform future species selection? : diameter at breast height as an indicator for tree performance in Malmö municipality’s tree database

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Författare :Hannah Kit Kraynick Braegelmann; [2023]
    Nyckelord :DBH; ; diameter at breast height; tree inventories; tree re-inventories; urban forestry; species selection; tree management;

    Sammanfattning : Using the inventory database of trees for Malmö municipality, Sweden, this study explored the potential of using the diameter at breast height (DBH) measurement in re-inventories, as a decision-making tool for species selection and management in urban forests. With the escalating pressures of urbanization and unpredictable climate change effects, there is an urgent need for urban forest managers to possess reliable tools that can facilitate the selection of resilient tree species capable of thriving in diverse and changing urban contexts.
