Studies conducted in recent years have demonstrated high application potential of thermal remote sensing data environmental analyses. The main goal our studies was to determine the variability tree canopy temperatures using a new sensor which acquires still rarely used spectral range (3.6–4.9 μm). This study on five selected species growing forest and outside forest: Alnus glutinosa, Pinus sylv...

Afforestation of contaminated areas is considered as a possible strategy for reduction of contaminations. In the present study, the effects of lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) were investigated on chlorophyll fluorescence parameters (Fv/Fm, Fo, and Fm), photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll a, b, and total chlorophyll), and proline in one-year-old seedlings of Celtis caucasica and Robinia pseudoacacia...

Az akác hazánk legelterjedtebb keménylombos fafaja. Ez a Magyarországon több mint 300 éve tenyésző fafaj népszerűségét gyors növekedésének, kemény, tartós fájának, jó nektártermelésének, valamint nagyfokú termőhelyi plaszticításának köszönheti. Ugyanakkor közismert tény, hogy az akácnál igen gyakori kedvezőtlen törzsalak előfordulása, mely faanyag megmunkálhatóságát, értékét jelentősen befolyás...

Despite the importance of landscape design and water-resources management for urban planning, urban-forest transpiration was seldom estimated in situ. Detailed data on different trees’ water resource use effect climatic fluctuations their behaviour timescales are limited. In this study, we used a thermal dissipation method to measure sap flux density (Js) three tree species (Pinus tabulaeformis...
