  • The 3 scenarios were namely protruding roots, protruding flares, and protruding roots and/or flares. The statistics were computed using only trees with protruding parts. For each scenario, if more than 1 protruding part was present on a tree, the length of the longest protrusion was considered. The count of pavement materials around the tree pits with protrusion was provided. Due to the lack of protrusion or small sample size, incomputable statistics were denoted by “N/A” for A. alexandrae, M. × alba, P. serratifolia, and X. chrysanthus.
