Abstract

One of a series of guidance notes based on research and practical experience in the restoration of brownfield land for woodland and urban greening after uses. The notes are devised for practitioners and all those responsible for restoring land back to beneficial soft end uses, particularly involving trees and woodland. Focuses on selection of appropriate drought-tolerant tree species to create greenspace on brownfield sites where soil is generally poor and susceptible to the effects of dry conditions.
