Functions of buffer plantings in urban environments
Conference Proceedings (Chapter)
Buffer plantings "can provide visual privacy, attenuate noise, diminish air pollution, reduce and retard stormwater runoff, help maintain water quality, increase property values, provide habitat for wildlife, moderate microclimates, and reduce the energy required to heat and cool nearby buildings." (p.281) Reprinted from Agricultre, Ecosystems and Environment 22/23:281-298, 1988.
