Abstract

Urbanisation is a logical and well anticipated consequence along the development of the cities. The role of urban forest in ameliorating urban habitats and improving quality of life is significant. Trees in urban system provide a variety of ecosystem services including biodiversity conservation, removal of atmospheric pollutants, oxygen generation, noise reduction, mitigation of urban heat island effect, microclimate regulation, stabilization of soil, groundwater recharge, prevention of soil erosion and carbon sequestration. With the participation of many different organization, local council, municipal and national planning bodies, department etc. for greening of cities is preferred. Government departments, educational institutions, municipal bodies, local residents are the key players in the greening of the urban cities. Systematic management entails regulated tree management, operations such as planting, pruning and felling needs to be conducted in an organized manner at the appropriate time.
