UUL GOTHENBURG is committed to approaching a more holistic method for urban greenery planning and maintenance supported by digital tools and platforms. As wind is a major threat to urban trees in ULL Gothenburg focus is put on appropriate tree species selection and wind risk evaluation including the analysis of tree health and biochemistry. The core activities of ULL Gothenburg are to tackle the lack of detailed investigation of the effect wind has on trees and vice versa. It will build on the previous works to simulate environmental processes and flows in the urban built environment, providing assistance to decision-making, and will go deeper into the individual tree-environment interaction through high-fidelity simulations. ULL Gothenburg will support pollution monitoring campaigns with site simulations and experience from previous site studies.
