Abstract
The right choice of the species is one of the main planning criteria that influences the future of tree planting and characterises its management. In this paper a retraining proposal of a street of Lido di Camaiore (LU) is described within the collaboration between University of Pisa and Municipality of Camaiore. Garibaldi street is one of the central streets of the town, parallel to the sea (N-S) and a law (n. 431/85) binds it. At present the plantation is constituted by Acer negundo L. species, exactly 179 trees located on two row and planted 40 years ago. Already in the seventies they suffered the first important stress when works on street sewerage were done. Then they have suffered pollarding so visual tree assessment (VTA) method applied on 30 trees showed bad growth and hazardous phytostatic conditions. Also new plantations with Sycamore presented a scarce adaptability. A botanical analysis into neighbouring streets (Acer pseudoplatanus L., Robinia pseudoacacia L., Celtis aus...I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
