Estimation of carbon sequestration rate between linear and curvilinear design landscape setting urban park

Urban parks are emerging as one of the important spaces in the urban fabric. Urban parks act as places that could increase the tranquillity and comfort of urban life by providing a space for people to relax their mind and become places for recreation and leisure.

Urban parks act as places that could increase the tranquillity and comfort of urban life by providing a space for people to relax their mind and become places for recreation and leisure. The need for urban parks became greater as cities expanded and the urban population rapidly grew.

The decisive outcomes of this study are the optimization of carbon sequestration rate by selecting the right plant material specifications with suitable landscape design setting. The findings revealed that curvilinear design landscape setting sequesters more carbon than linear design landscape setting. Plants with bigger girth and larger quantities sequester more carbon compared to smaller girth and fewer trees.
