Figures
- Figure 1.
The mean LAI (a) and mean shade area (b) of five different street tree species in Manchester, UK, in early summer and midsummer 2011: C. laevigata (n = 12), S. arnoldiana (n = 10), Prunus ‘Umineko’ (n = 10), P. calleryana (n = 10), and Malus ‘Rudolph’ (n = 9). For LAI (a), species with the same letters are not significantly different from each other in both early and mid-summer; no significant differences were found for mean shade area (b) during either sample period.

The mean reduction of mean radiant temperature (a) and surface temperature (b) in tree shade during early summer and mid-summer in Manchester, UK, below five different street tree species: C. laevigata (n = 12), S. arnoldiana (n = 10), Prunus ‘Umineko’ (n = 10), P. calleryana (n = 10), and Malus ‘Rudolph’ (n = 9). Lowercase letters indicate significant differences in early summer while uppercase indicate significant differences in midsummer; species with the same letters are not significantly different from each other.

The mean canopy height, east/west canopy spread, canopy area and aspect ratio produced by five street tree species: C. laevigata (n = 12), S. arnoldiana (n = 10), Prunus ‘Umineko’ (n = 10), P. calleryana (n = 10), and Malus ‘Rudolph’ (n = 9). For each canopy attribute, species with the same letters are not significantly different from each other.
