Worldwide, communities are facing increasing flood risk, due to more frequent and intense
hazards and rising exposure through more people living along coastlines and in flood …

Recently, biomagnetic monitoring of tree leaves has proven to be a good estimator for
ambient particulate concentration. This paper investigates the usefulness of biomagnetic …

Particulate matter (PM) deposited on Platanus acerifolia tree leaves has been sampled in
the urban areas of 28 European cities, over 20 countries, with the aim of testing leaf …

Particulate matter (PM) is the most dangerous form of air pollution and is known to cause
severe health problems to humans. Plants as biological filters can reduce PM in urban areas …

Pollution adversely affects vegetation; however, its impact on phenology and leaf
morphology is not satisfactorily understood yet. We analyzed associations between …

We aimed at evaluating the effect of low-level air pollution on leaf area fluctuating
asymmetry (FAA) and specific leaf area (SLA) of Salix alba L., taking into account other …

Ornamental plant trees possess multiple ecosystem roles, retain ambient quality and have
pleasant landscape effects, whereas urbanization also induce many environmental changes …

This study evaluated the effect of urban habitat quality on the wettability of tree leaves. We
measured leaf wettability of five common tree species, ie, Alnus glutinosa, Acer …

This open-field small-plot long-term experiment was set up between 2011 and 2021 with
willow (Salix triandra× S. viminalis 'Inger'), grown as a short rotation coppice energy crop in …

This study assessed the variation of leaf anatomy, chlorophyll content index (CCI), maximal
stomatal conductance (gs max) and leaf wettability within the canopy of an adult European …
