Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmada İzmir kenti Bornova ilçesinde bulunan Ağaçlı Yol olarak bilinen 2.5 km uzunluğundaki Üniversite Caddesinde yer alan yol ağaçlarının hava kalitesini iyileştirmesine yönelik ekosistem servisinin hesaplanması amaçlanmıştır.
Materyal ve Yöntem: Araştırma materyalini Üniversite Caddesinde bulunan yol ağaçları oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada yolun her iki kıyısında bulunan yetişkin demir ağaçlarının (Casuarina equisetifolia) coğrafi konumları ile boy, taç genişliği, taç yüksekliği, gövde kalınlığı gibi fiziksel özellikleri yapılan ölçümlerle belirlenmiş ve ağaç envanteri hazırlanmıştır. Bu ağaçların yıl içinde hava kalitesini iyileştirme ekosistem servisi kuru çöküntü yöntemi kullanılarak hesaplanmıştır.
Araştırma Bulguları: Çalışmada, 483 adet demir ağacının bir yılda atmosferden 161 kg kirletici (O3, NO2, SO2, PM10) toplama potansiyeline sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir.
Sonuç: İzmir kentinin en eski ağaçlı yollarından biri olan ve bu yeşil koridor ekolojik özellikleriyle kentin hava kalitesinin iyileştirilmesine ve kent halkının yaşam kalitesinin yükselmesine olumlu katkıda bulunmaktadır. Ağaçların hava kalitesini iyileştirme fonksiyonlarının kirletici kaynaklarına yakın olduğu durumlarda yüksek olması nedeniyle koridorun yol kıyısında bulunması sağladığı etkiyi arttırmaktadır. Sonuç olarak kent içindeki yeşil koridorların sağladığı ekosistem servislerinin niceliksel olarak ortaya konulması, ekolojik kalitesi yüksek yeşil alanlara sahip, dayanıklı kentlerin oluşmasına katkı sağlayacaktır.

Air quality effects of Bornova university street trees

Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this research is to estimate the air purification ecosystem services of street trees of University Street.
Materials and Methods: Australian pine trees (Casuarina equisetifolia) located on the both side of the University Street were the reseach materials. Geographic locations, and physical characteristics such as tree height, crown width/height, and diameters of breast height of the trees were measured in the field. In this research, the air purification regulating ecosystem services provided by the trees in the green corridor was calculated by using dry deposition.
Results: In this research, the air pollutant removal capacity of the 453 trees was estimated 161 kg year (O3, NO2, SO2, PM10).
Conclusion: As one of the oldest green corridors in Izmir, the University Street helped to improve the health and well-being of residents by reducing air pollutants. Trees can improve air quality by intercepting pollutants through their leaves depending on their ecological characteristics, climate and environmental conditions. The air pollutant removal capacity of trees is high when they close to the source of the pollutant. As a roadside green corridor, the benefits of the University Street is high. Therefore, calculating their ecosystem services of urban green corridors will help to create resilient cities with high ecological value.
