Vegetation canopies represent the interface between the atmosphere and the biosphere and play an important role in determining energy and mass exchange. Accurate characterisation of vegetation canopy characteristics is therefore important to under...

Radford, K. The provision of ecosystem services at the local scale along a rural-urban gradient : a case study of a typical UK metropolitan city. (Thesis). University of Salford

The process of urbanisation has resulted in the degradation of the ecosystem services provided by the natural environment within cities. Conserving and enhancing these ecosystem services improves the sustainability of cities, and the health and wel...
