Urban Trees and Ecosystem Services
Urban Trees and Ecosystem Services: a field techniques workshop
Thursday 9 June 2011 at the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG), London.
The environmental value of trees within the urban landscape can be difficult to quantify. This field techniques workshop seeks to address the problem with the use of innovative software i-Tree Eco.
i-Tree Eco is a detailed environmental services benefits model. It is designed to quantify the structure, environmental effects and value of trees in urban and wildland-urban ecosystems. The results from an i-Tree Eco project can be used by natural resource managers, municipal planners and community groups to make effective resource management decisions; to develop policies and set priorities.
This one day field studies workshop will demonstrate how to carry out an i-Tree Eco project, from data collection through to final report use.
Costs: Standard £180/Student £125. Prices are all inclusive of VAT
Fees include lunch and refreshments.
