Applicability of CITYgreen Urban Ecosystem Analysis Software to a Densely Built Urban Neighborhood.
The writers evaluate the applicability of the CITYgreen program, version 4.0, a geographic information system-based tool developed to calculate the economic benefits of urban forests and other landscape features for energy use, stormwater runoff, air pollution, carbon sequestration, and wildlife hab...

United States sug: subj: Los Angeles (Calif.) United States Geography Urban ecology Geography software Urban forestry ab: The writers evaluate the applicability of the CITYgreen program, version 4.0, a geographic information system-based tool developed to calculate the economic benefits of urban forests and other landscape features for energy use, stormwater runoff, air pollution, carbon sequestration, and wildlife habitat in a densely populated neighborhood in Los Angeles, California. They indicate that CITYgreen does not calculate energy savings for buildings larger than single-family residences, reducing its usefulness in these environments. They note that the stormwater runoff reduction module works when the field data themes were clipped so that the highest canopy was recorded in in every part of the study site. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
