The Canopy Cover of England's Towns and Cities
The Canopy Cover of England’s Towns and Cities: baselining and setting targets to improve human health and well-being Kieron J. Doick1, Helen J. Davies2, Joe Moss1, Rob Coventry1, Phil Handley1, Madalena VazMonteiro1, Kenton Rogers3 and Philip Simpkin4 1 Forest Research (Urban Forest Research Group) Centre for Sustainable Forestry and Climate Change Farnham, Surrey, GU10 4LH, UK Tel: +44(0)300 067 5601 2 Centre for Environmental Sciences Faculty of Engineering and the Environment University of Southampton, Southampton, SO17 1BJ, UK 3 Treeconomics The Innovation Centre University of Exeter Exeter, EX4 4RN, UK 4 Planning and Sustainability, Wycombe District Council, High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, HP11 1BB, UK *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Evidence shows that the negative impacts upon human health of urbanisation, such as increased exposure to heat stress and elevated levels of air pollution, are in part caused by the removal of vegetation relative to rural environments. Consequently, trees and the wider green infrastructure of a city are advocated as a cost-effective sustainable remedy. Trees also contribute to human well-being by softening the urban aesthetic and offering a focal point for human social interaction. Within the UK, there is a knowledge gap with respect to the numbers of trees in towns and cities. Anecdotal evidence for England and research from Wales suggests that tree numbers and therefore canopy cover is falling. City-wide tree canopy cover is a useful indicator of the extent of tree presence across a city. Its assessment can be simple, fast and highly reproducibly. Repeat observation could be a cost-effective means of monitoring tree populations, setting targets and tracking effectiveness of planting programmes.
