The Suitability of Short Rotation Coppice Crops for Phytoremediation of Urban Soils

The Suitability of Short Rotation Coppice Crops for Phytoremediation of Urban Soils

This experiment was aimed at verifying the usefulness of phytoremediation using Short Rotation Coppice (SRC) in an urban Zn-contaminated site. Besides elemental uptake and reclamation, the SRC method was applied to evaluate the additional benefits of a green infrastructure. Nine different plants wit...
