Abstract

U radu je analizirana zastupljenost pojedinih vrsta ukrasne dendroflore uz prometnice na
području grada Zagreba, na temelju morfoloških karakteristika procijenjena je njihova
učinkovitost u uklanjanju lebdećih čestica te su izdvojene vrste s visokim potencijalom
uklanjanja lebdećih čestica i minimalnim štetnim učinkom na kvalitetu zraka. Najbrojnije
vrste drveća uz analizirane prometnice bile su Acer platanoides, Aesculus hippocastanum,
Betula pendula, Platanus x acerifolia, Tilia platyphyllos i T. tomentosa. Sve navedene vrste
bile su s obzirom na karakteristike koje utječu na učinkovitost zadržavanja čestica relativno
visoko rangirane. Među ovim vrstama, Tilia platyphyllos i T. tomentosa imaju slabo
alergogenu pelud i u umjerenoj količini izlučuju hlapive organske spojeve te se stoga mogu
smatrati vrstama pogodnim za sadnju uz prometnice.

Abstract (english)

In this work, ornamental woody plants were analysed along busy roads in the city of Zagreb.
The efficiency of different species in removal of particulate matter was estimated according to
their morphological characteristics and species with high potential for particulate matter
removal and minimal adverse effect on air quality were identified. The most numerous tree
species along the analyzed roads were Acer platanoides, Aesculus hippocastanum, Betula
pendula, Platanus x acerifolia, Tilia platyphyllos and T. tomentosa. All listed species were
ranked relatively highly in terms of characteristics that affect particle removal efficiency.
Among these species, Tilia platyphyllos and T. tomentosa produce low-allergenic pollen and
release volatile organic compounds in moderate amounts, and can therefore be considered as
suitable for planting along roads.
