Journal
Flow analysis of vernal pool, swale, and headwater stream complexes in the Central Valley, California suggests these systems can be significant sources of streamflow and therefore play an important role in maintaining the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of downstream waters, which has important implications for the definition of waters of the United States subject to regulation under the Clean Water Act.

City of Venice Tree Canopy Analysis 2020
Report
This report uses mapping results to assess the state of urban tree canopy. First, aerial imagery from 2010 and 2020 was used to determine loss/gain of tree canopy. Second, an Urban Tree Canopy map was created from 2020 aerial imagery and LiDAR to show distribution of tree canopy, grass/shrubs and other land cover classes. Additional analysis was performed to estimate potential urban heat mitigation, stormwater runoff reduction, and tree-related sources of storm damage.

The City conducted its first tree canopy analysis in 2006 and is required by City Ordinance to conduct an analysis and comparison every five years. This presentation discusses highlights from a study of area tree coverage, conducted by the City, the University of South Florida, the University of Florida and the UF-IFA/Hillsborough county Extension Service. Information from the report will allow the City to develop management strategies to maintain a sustainable tree canopy for the future.

Tampa Tree Canopy and Land Cover Interactive Map
Website
Tree canopy cover is an important measure of the amount of area and locations which are directly and indirectly influenced by trees, which provide many benefits, or ecosystem services, to communities. The distribution of tree canopy is a useful indicator of where these benefits occur within the city. Tree canopy measurements are commonly used to assist with the development and monitoring of urban tree management policies.
