  • In each scenario, if more than 1 protrusion was detected on a tree, only the longest protruding parts were considered. Species-specific regression coefficients of the predictors, namely DBH, H, lean angle, pavement width, open soil area, setback, and pavement material, were presented. If significant, the adjusted R2 and regression coefficient values were italicised and underlined. “N/A” indicated a lack of variation. A. alexandrae, L. speciosa, M. × alba, P. serratifolia, and X. chrysanthus were excluded due to small sample size.
