Most bottom-dwelling marine invertebrate animals, such as sponges, corals, worms and oysters, produce tiny larvae that swim in the ocean prior to attaching to the seafloor and transforming into juveniles. What a tree needs to grow and how it affects its surroundings varies from species to species. This makes it increasingly important for cities to adapt the urban tree cover to local conditions. A team at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has developed the online tool CityTree. For the first time, NASA data about nitrogen dioxide (NO2), a harmful air pollutant, is available in the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) widely used Environmental Justice Screening and Mapping Tool (EJScreen). This update marks a crucial step in addressing air quality disparities in overburdened communities across the United States. |
