Urban Forestscapes. The City of Delft as a Woodland Complex

Activity: Talk or presentationTalk or presentation at a conference

Description

The notion of ‘plantation’ is explored as one of the defining aspects of a 'tree language' (next to ‘species’ and ‘configuration’). ‘Plantation’ is proposed as a term to describe the wooded characteristics of areas in the urban realm, defined by a combination of characteristics of species, tree configurations and the density and morphology of the plantation, comparable to a natural forest mosaic which is also determined by commonalities in species and vegetation community structure, as well as having alternations of densely wooded and less wooded areas.
