VERTICAL GREENERY FOR THE TROPICS

Editors: Kelly Chiang & Alex Tan

Trees provide numerous environmental benefits to Singapore, of which the amount of carbon sequestration by urban trees in Singapore, and how a simple method can be used for such estimation are significant areas of interest. This handbook reports on the key results of a study that was conducted by the Centre for Urban Greenery and Ecology (CUGE) for the estimation of carbon storage and sequestration in urban trees managed by the National Parks Board. A simple method is also conducted for the estimation of carbon storage and sequestration based on tree inventories.

CARBON STORAGE AND SEQUESTRATION OF URBAN TREES IN SINGAPORE

Retail Price: SGD 10.00

Editors: Dr. Tan Puay Yok, Bryan Yeo, Yip Wen Xi, Lua Hock Keong

Rooftops have often been referred to as the “last urban frontier” of cities, in the sense that they represent the last significant remaining space to be exploited. Greening of rooftops is therefore a logical, effective and high impact way to re-inject the much-needed greenery in urban settings. The challenge is to do so in a cost-effective manner without compromising the primary functions of roofs. As we seek to use such technology in the tropics, adaptation of the technology to suit the climatic conditions of the tropics and appropriate selection of plants are key factors of success. This handbook presents a selection of over seventy plants that are suitable for green roofs in Singapore.

SELECTION OF PLANTS FOR GREEN ROOFS IN SINGAPORE (2nd Edition)

Editors: Dr. Tan Puay Yok & Angelia Sia

This guidebook presents results of a study that was initiated with the same intention: to rely on scientific knowledge to develop a quantitative approach towards the accounting of greenery in a city or development site. It arose from the need to plug the gap in the lack of empirically determined data to enable the accounting of greenery to realistically reflect the actual amount present in a site. The study also aimed to bring Green Plot Ratio from being just a promising concept to being used reliably as a greenery quantification tool. It also arose from the fact that we often forget that nature is complex, and often do not conform to our assumptions or categories that we sometimes conveniently or categories that we sometimes conveniently adopt for expediency and simplicity.

LEAF AREA INDEX OF TROPICAL PLANTS A Guidebook on its Use in the Calculation of Green Plot Ratio

Editors: Dr. Tan Puay Yok & Angelia Sia

The greening of waterways and waterbodies is one move that contributes towards Singapore’s vision of becoming a “City in a Garden”. Hence, use of appropriate plants to support the creation of aquatic landscapes in ponds and lakes and the naturalization of canals and rivers is key. This book aims to present a palette of suitable water plants for use by professionals, and which are best suited to absorb specific pollutants.
