Air pollution caused by particulate matter (PM) is a well-known health issue in urban
environments. Urban green infrastructure offers opportunities as a nature-based solution to …

Particulate matter (PM) pollution in urban cities is of great concern for public health due to its
global and adverse effect of human health while ecosystems function and vegetation control …

Human health risks caused by PM2. 5 raise awareness to the role of trees as bio-filters of
urban air pollution, but not all species are equally capable of filtering the air. The objectives …

Urban particulate pollution in the UK remains at levels which have the potential to cause
negative impacts on human health. There is a need, therefore, for mitigation strategies within …

Urban green spaces function as biological filters in reducing atmospheric particles. Yet there
is a profound requisite to identify the most effective plant species by their leaf traits that can …

Background Green infrastructure is a strategic network of green spaces designed to deliver
ecosystem services to human communities. Green infrastructure is a convenient concept for …

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

Urban trees and forests are widely used as biological filters to combat the airborne
particulate matter (PM). Precipitation washing PM off from plants is regarded as filter …

Biomagnetic monitoring of atmospheric pollution is a growing application in the field of
environmental magnetism. Particulate matter (PM) in atmospheric pollution contains readily …

Rainfall influences removal of airborne particulate matter (PM) from leaf surfaces through a
process called wash off resulting in throughfall that carries PM to the ground. The present …
