Compatibility of Urban Trees on Celestino Cavalheiro Avenue, Sao Gabriel-RS

ABSTRACT

The objective of this study was to examine the compatibility of the vegetation that makes up the afforestation of Celestino Cavalheiro Avenue in Sao Gabriel, State of Rio Grande do Sul with the urban structures that surround it. For this, assessments of the vegetation and the urban structures of the location were carried out. The results showed that the majority of individuals were characterized for having exotic origin and being located in the avenue median; presenting adult possession and large open area of pavement. The individuals are located 0.30 m off the curb and are between 3 and 4.9 m tall, with 1.1 to 2 trunks; thus generating traffic interference.
