Exploring potential trade-offs in outdoor water use reductions and urban tree ecosystem services during an extreme drought in Southern California
In Southern California cities, urban trees play a vital role in alleviating heat waves through shade provision and evaporative cooling. Trees in arid to semi-arid regions may rely on irrigation, which is often the first municipal water use to be restricted during drought, causing further drought str...
