Variation in Tree Species Ability to Capture and Retain Airborne Fine Particulate Matter (PM(2.5))

Human health risks caused by PM(2.5) raise awareness to the role of trees as bio-filters of urban air pollution, but not all species are equally capable of filtering the air. The objectives of this current study were: (1) to determine the foliar traits for effective PM(2.5)-capture and (2) explore s...
