Green landscape elements for good air quality (Anne Oosterbaan, Edo Gies, Arjan Griffioen)
Results (expected) • Method for translation of MKLE-data to contribution of landscape elements to a decreasing PM-concentration in a certain area (2008) + example • Ideas/methods to use these figures in decision making processes (2009)
Translation MKLE-data PM10-capture capacity green elements based upon: - size (length, width and height)/completeness • porosity • species composition Contribution to PM10-concentration
Scientific relevance SELS-question: relationship (model) for green landscape elements and their influence on air quality (fine dust PM10), in such a way that it can be used as a tool in the decisionprocess for development of that area (theme 1: inventory E&LS) /theme 4: how can E&LS values be included in stakeholder based analysis and participatory decision making processes ?
(Inter)national • EU-norm air quality (PM10) • LB-organisations • Belgium, Gr-Britain, USA (urban forestry org.)
