City trees provide cooling even in extreme heat
Plane trees in cities have an important cooling effect even in extreme heat, according to a new study conducted by the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research (WSL) and EPFL published in Urban Forestry & Urban Greening. The next step is to identify which tree species are particularly effective at cooling.
