About 68% of the world's population will be living in the cities by 2050. Megacities such as São Paulo already suffer the exacerbated effects of climate change due to heat islands and impermeable surfaces, along with the harm caused by the environmental pollution. The conditions of the urban environment can be improved using the ecosystem services of trees that include carbon sequestratio…
It is well-known that urban trees provide ecosystem services, among them, reducing air pollution stands out for its important role. Particulate matter and metal therein found in the air can be retained in different tissues of trees, especially in their bark that vary in porosity and roughness according to the species, affecting their ability to accumulate pollutants. However, it is not ye…
The accelerated growth of urban frontiers over natural areas contributes to the faster exploitation of natural resources, generating biodiversity loss and climate change. The overpopulated regions' conurbation generates the emergence of megacities, megalopolises, macro metropolises and megaregions. These areas occupy a vast territory, replacing natural areas with waterproofing urban areas…

Urban expansion results in significant changes in the local climate conditions due to the conversion of the native vegetation by built areas. This land-use change results in an increase in the convective activities in the city, affecting heat transfers, cloud formation and the precipitation regime. Part of these changes can be mitigated by planting urban forests that lead to changes in en…
Tree rings are one of the most reliable natural archives, which is able to produce reconstructions with annual resolution. It has being largely used for the reconstruction of climate and pollution data prior to instrumental records, in both temperate and tropical regions. The aim of the present study is to reconstruct the climate and the atmospheric pollution in five regions of São Paulo …
Cities growth and anthropogenic activities change the landscape and increase the levels of CO2 concentration, contributing to severe environmental issues and climate change. Thereduction in green cover and use of materials with high heat retention in the grey infrastructure leads to the formation of heat islands in urban areas. Such heat islands make cities especially vulnerable to heat w…
More than half of world's population lives in cities and it will reach 66% by 2050. A share of this population lives in the mega-cities with 10 million or more inhabitants, often found in poor and / or developing countries. In these countries, the mega-cities experienced a rapid and unplanned growth that resulted in strong inequalities and environmental degradation. This condition makes t…
