The research project "Trees in planters as an effective urban climate measure to adapt to climate change" aims to close existing knowledge gaps regarding the climatic effects and growth conditions of trees in planters, to establish relevant technical vegetation principles, and to develop strategies and concepts for using trees in planters as an effective urban climate measure for adapting to climate change. The results have been compiled into a practical guideline that enables planners, cities, and municipalities to purposefully and sustainably use trees in planters as a climate adaptation measure and to promote biodiversity in dense urban environments where conventional tree planting is not possible.
The research project is a sub-project of the Centre for Urban Ecology and Climate Adaptation (ZSK), TUM, funded by the State Ministry for the Environment and Consumer Protection (Staatsministerium für Umwelt und Verbraucherschutz).
The Professorship for Green Technologies in Landscape Architecture was responsible for leading the research project, with a total funding volume of approximately 300,000 euros.
