| description | Urban forest provides two important services for humans i.e., improving air quality and aesthetics. Therefore, tree species selection should consider tolerance of trees to pollutants in urban areas and aesthetic point of view. The aims were to (1) determine the typology of the urban forest and its constituent species, (2) to evaluate the suitability of tree species in the urban forest, and (3) to develop guidance for selection of tree species that based on habitat suitability and and effective to control air pollution.
