Guia de seleção de árvores ornamentais: paisagismo urbano para a Amazônia

Abstract

The importance of this publication when we think about more sustainable cities, with urban landscaping that promotes well-being and milder temperature conditions, especially in Amazonian metropolises, as an urgent direction in a context of global climate change, through the essential work of the authors, who provide relevant content to managers and society as a whole. In the Amazonian context, what is observed in the vast majority of cities is the lack of adequate guidance for the management of trees present in the urban perimeter, where interventions are carried out without technical planning and without the necessary knowledge, in addition to the lack of creativity in proposing ‘new species’.
