Particulate matter (PM) pollution is an urgent urban environmental problem. However, plants
can mitigate this pollution by filtering the air. Combining the PM capture capacity with the air …

The potential of urban greening plants to capture particulate matter (PM) from the ambient
atmosphere is contingent on interactions between the level of pollution and leaf surfaces …

Urban landscape plants are an important component of the urban ecosystem, playing a
significant role in the adsorption of airborne particulates and air purification. In this study, six …

Urban trees have the potential to reduce air pollution, but the retention capacity and
efficiency of different tree species for atmospheric particulate matter (PM) accumulation and …

Atmospheric particulate matter (PM) is one of the main environmental air pollutants, but it
can be retained and adsorbed by plants. To systematically and comprehensively conduct …

Vegetation may be used as a biological filter, with its foliage accumulating particulate matter
(PM). The abilities of leaves as PM receptors depend on a number of factors, such as …

The retention capacities and photosynthetic response to different-sized particulate matter in
plants are very important indicators for urban green plant species selection. A large number …

Particulate matter in European cities, especially in urban areas, is mainly from urban road
traffic and constitutes a great threat to the health of inhabitants. Therefore, understanding of …

Particulate matter (PM) removal is a major component of ecosystem services provided by
urban green infrastructure. The annual PM removal service of plant species has generally …

Air pollution causes serious problems in spring in northern China; therefore, studying the
ability of different plants to accumulate particulate matter (PM) at the beginning of the …
