Optimizing Tree Planting in SSLC through analysis of Climate, Hydrology, Urban Heat, Human Health, Equity & Demographics, and Biodiversity Perspectives
This project aims to identify optimal tree planting locations in South Salt Lake (SSLC) by analyzing hydrology, urban heat, equity factors, human health, and biodiversity. Integrating these perspectives identifies areas with the highest potential for multifaceted benefits from tree planting in SSLC.
Our collaboration with the City of South Salt Lake through public engagement sessions has enriched our understanding and ensured that our findings align with community needs and aspirations.
