Canopy cover and land-use change in Torbay from 2010 to 2018

Editorial: urban forest cover, micro-climate and impacts of urban nitrogen

“…Firstly there is a paper addressing urban forest canopy cover which is an important issue in present-day arboriculture.

The study showed how built land-uses showed static or declining canopy cover over the period but woodland and agricultural lands had slightly increased canopy cover.…”
