Our research aims to provide reliable information to HRM’s urban forestry staff for decision-making to enhance the sustainability of the city’s tree population. One student will investigate the factors that contribute to poor health and mortality of new street trees, aiming to assist the urban forestry staff to alleviate these factors in future plantings. Another student will document the prevalence of hemlock trees in HRM’s six large wooded parks, aiming to assist urban forestry staff to determine whether actions will be needed to cope with the impending arrival of the insect pest known as the hemlock woolly adelgid.
