Valuing Ealing's Urban Trees
Valuing Ealing’s Urban Trees EALING I-TREE ECO TECHNICAL REPORT Report Published in 2018 ©Trees for Cities 2018 Designed by Arup FOREWORD Ealing’s trees are an integral part of the borough’s character, from the 400 year old woodlands to the Cherry blossom-lined streets; even the borough’s logo sports a tree. Trees can play an important role in promoting mental and physical wellbeing, adding colour and beauty to the built urban landscape, reducing the heat island effect and they have the ability to absorb large quantities of water, to help reduce the risk of flooding. Ealing’s trees are becoming increasingly valuable as we face challenges of climate change and population growth. The Council’s vision is to increase and enhance the whole of the urban tree stock for the enjoyment of current and future generations and to ensure that trees remain a defining feature of the splendid suburban borough that is Ealing. One of the overarching themes of the new draft London Plan (December 2017) is creating a healthy city. The Plan suggests that green infrastructure, including trees, must be planned, designed, and managed in a more integrated way to ensure Londoners reap the multitude of benefits it provides, including mental and physical health and wellbeing. The Plan emphases that the urban forest is an important part of London’s green infrastructure and a major asset to the urban environment. This report helps us better understand the importance of Ealing’s trees and woodlands. The economic and social value of trees has become increasingly evident across all of London and has been highlighted in the London i-Tree Assessment and the Natural Capital Account for London’s public parks and green spaces. -

The results of arboriculture and afforestation attempts during a century in the Faroe Isles and 30 years in Greenland illucidate the phytogeographical position of these areas and suggest from which regions further species and origins should be introduced. -

A Quick Approach to Determine the Optimal Moisture Content For
AARHUS UNIVERSITET An approach to determine the optimal moisture content for controlled dormancy breakage in new tree and shrub species. Martin Jensen Department of Food Science Aarhus University [email protected] Background • physiological seed dormancy is released after a period of moist chilling • chilling at slightly reduced and controlled moisture content gives: - control of premature germination - ability to prolong the chilling duration - all seeds released from dormancy - ability to germinate at high or low temperatures and fast germination - surface dry seeds with less fungus attack - potential of retaining desiccation tolerance during entire chilling - ’advantage from more precise control’ Applied techniques change – from manual uncontrolled to mechanised controlled prototype to advanced controlled seed treatment CMC chilling Species MC %(f.w.)

Hypothesis: The optimal moisture content for controlled breakage of seed dormancy is always at or just below the critical moisture content for germination. -
Tree Planting and Management
COMMONWEALTH WAR GRAVES COMMISSION Tree Planting and Management Breadth of Opportunity The spread of the Commission's responsibilities over some 148 countries in temperate, mediterranean, tropical and desert climates provides wonderful opportunities to experiment with nature's wealth of tree species. We are particularly fortunate in being able to grow many interesting and beautiful trees and we will explain how we manage them and what splendid specimens they can make. Why Plant Trees? Trees are planted for a variety of reasons: their amenity value, leaf shape and size, flowers, fruit, habit, form, bark, landscape value, shelter or screening, backcloth planting, shade, noise and pollution reduction, soil stabilisation and to encourage wild life. Often we plant trees solely for their amenity value. That is, the beauty of the tree itself. This can be from the leaves such as those in Robinia pseudoacacia 'Frisia', the flowers in the tropical tree Tabebuia or Albizia, the crimson stems of the sealing wax palm (Cyrtostachys renda), or the fruit as in Magnolia grandiflora. above: Sealing wax palms at Taiping War Cemetery, Malaysia with insert of the fruit of Magnolia grandiflora Selection Generally speaking the form of the left: The tropical tree Tabebuia tree is very often a major contributing factor and this, together with a sound knowledge of below: Flowers of the tropical the situation in which the tree is to tree Albizia julibrissin be grown, guides the decision to the best choice of species. Exposure is a major limitation to the free choice of species in northern Europe especially and trees such as Sorbus, Betula, Tilia, Fraxinus, Crataegus and fastigiate yews play an important role in any landscape design where the elements are seriously against a wider selection. -

The main purpose of this study is to obtain specimens, seeds and living collections with passport data for the potential use. This exploration was the third of our whole research regarding the investigation of the flora of eastern Asia. The expedition was carried out by a team of scientists from T. B. Lee Herbarium, Seoul National University (SNUA), and the Institute of Botany in Beijing (PE). This cooperation insured involvement by both Chinese and Korean experts in all targeted taxonomic groups, and was essential to successful execution of field studies in China. Field survey was carried out two times in July and September, 2004. From our expedition to western Sichuan, we could visited evergreen broad-leaved and deciduous forests mix (1,800 to 2,500 m), subalpine and alpine conifers [2,500 to 3,200 m; its mountain valleys abundant in spruces, firs and pines, form the (somewhat overlogged) major wood resource for Sichuan], alpine shrublands and meadows (3,200 to 4,500 m) and alpine rock vegetation (above 4,500 m). -
