Description
A integração de árvores no projeto urbano melhora a estética e a qualidade ambiental. Para o efeito, há que encontrar a árvore certa para o local certo (i.e., constrangimentos e potencialidades do local versus necessidades e características de cada espécie). Na escolha das espécies deverá atender-se às qualidades estéticas diferenciadoras como o porte das árvores, tipo de tronco, forma da copa, tipo de ramificação, tipo e coloração das folhas e flores e tipo de fruto. O presente estudo teve como objetivo principal dar visibilidade a algumas das qualidades estéticas de árvores da floresta urbana da cidade de Castelo Branco, bem como, dar notícia da execução de podas e danos nas árvores urbanas. Por último, destacou-se o valor que este património arbóreo representa ao qual se associam os benefícios ambientais que proporcionam e os efeitos positivos na saúde e bem-estar dos cidadãos. Para a proteção deste património enfatiza-se a necessidade: i) pela sensibilização dos responsáveis municipais para a aplicação de boas práticas (e.g., podas e danos); ii) pela exigência de formação em boas práticas em arboricultura aos prestadores de serviços e equipas técnicas municipais; e iii) pelo fortalecimento de iniciativas locais que fomentem uma participação ativa dos cidadãos na proteção deste património.
Abstract: The integration of trees into urban design improves aesthetics and environmental quality. To that end, the right tree must be found to the right place (i.e. constraints and potentialities of the site versus needs and characteristics of each species). Regarding species selection, a variety of aesthetic qualities such as tree size, trunk type, crown shape, type of branching, type and color of leaves and flowers and type of fruit are also considered. The present study had as main goal to give visibility to some of the aesthetic qualities of the species in the urban forest of the city of Castelo Branco, and as well, to give notice of the execution of pruning and injuries in the urban trees. In the end, attention is drawn to the value that this tree patrimony represents to which are associated the environmental benefits they provide and the positive effect on citizen’s health and well-being. For the protection of this patrimony, it is emphasized the need: (i) in giving awareness of municipal officials and service providers for the implementation of good practices (e.g., pruning and injuries); (ii) in requiring arboriculture good practices training to service providers and municipal technical teams; and (iii)) in strengthening local initiatives that encourage active citizen participation towards the protection of this patrimony.
