People’s perceptions of urban forests may vary according to urban contexts and people’s diverse identities. A better understanding of these diverse perceptions is critical to support stewardship initiatives, inform urban tree decisions, and guide community engagement, among other key management and governance processes in urban forestry. This study examines the values and beliefs that diverse people living in a variety of urban contexts associate with urban trees. Using an urban gradient approach, 2009 responses were collected through an online panel survey conducted in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) to understand variations in values and beliefs of urban forests across municipal types (inner core, suburban, peri-urban, and regional cities). The GTA has an ethnoculturally diverse population, allowing us to also explore perceptions held by people with various identities. The study uses analytical techniques, such as means differences and linear regression models, to segment the diverse meanings people attribute to urban trees by municipal types and people’s identities. The results show that, while people value the urban forest very highly, people’s value orientations vary depending on their context and identities. For example, respondents who speak European or South Asian languages tend to hold value orientations related to cultural, social, and identity issues. Respondents living in inner municipal types tend to hold values related to identity issues, whereas respondents living in outer municipal types and regional cities tend to hold values related to natural issues. The results also show that people’s beliefs about urban forests are primarily positive. Urban forests managers and stewardship initiatives should recognize the diverse set of values and beliefs that people associate with urban forests, incorporating these perceptions into policy and programs. Additionally, since specific value and belief orientations may depend on personal identity and urban contexts, tailored messaging may also help generate support for policy or stewardship initiatives across different communities and in varied urban contexts."}],"$":{"view":"all","id":"abs0010"},"#name":"abstract-sec"}],"$":{"view":"all","id":"ab0010","class":"author"},"#name":"abstract"},{"$$":[{"$":{"id":"sect0010"},"#name":"section-title","_":"Highlights"},{"$$":[{"$$":[{"$$":[{"$$":[{"#name":"label","_":"•"},{"$":{"view":"all","id":"p0005"},"#name":"para","_":"People can associate deep perceptions (values and beliefs) of urban forests."}],"$":{"id":"u0005"},"#name":"list-item"},{"$$":[{"#name":"label","_":"•"},{"$":{"view":"all","id":"p0010"},"#name":"para","_":"We explored these perceptions across the Greater Toronto Area, Canada."}],"$":{"id":"u0010"},"#name":"list-item"},{"$$":[{"#name":"label","_":"•"},{"$":{"view":"all","id":"p0015"},"#name":"para","_":"These deep perceptions are segmented by diverse identities and contexts."}],"$":{"id":"u0015"},"#name":"list-item"},{"$$":[{"#name":"label","_":"•"},{"$":{"view":"all","id":"p0020"},"#name":"para","_":"Value orientations change slightly according to the language people speak and type of municipality."}],"$":{"id":"u0020"},"#name":"list-item"},{"$$":[{"#name":"label","_":"•"},{"$":{"view":"all","id":"p0025"},"#name":"para","_":"Beliefs about urban forests are mostly positive."}],"$":{"id":"u0025"},"#name":"list-item"}],"$":{"id":"li0005"},"#name":"list"}],"$":{"view":"all","id":"sp0090"},"#name":"simple-para"}],"$":{"view":"all","id":"abs0015"},"#name":"abstract-sec"}],"$":{"view":"all","id":"ab0015","class":"author-highlights"},"#name":"abstract"}],"$":{"xmlns:ce":true,"xmlns:dm":true,"xmlns:sb":true},"#name":"abstracts"},"pdf":{"urlType":"download","url":"/science/article/pii/S1618866722001327/pdfft?md5=aeb9e29c864a097255e3c7663a442675&pid=1-s2.0-S1618866722001327-main.pdf"},"iss-first":"","vol-first":"72","isThirdParty":false,"issn-primary-unformatted":"16188667","issn-primary-formatted":"1618-8667"},{"pii":"S1618866722002187","journalTitle":"Urban Forestry & Urban Greening","publicationYear":"2022","volumeSupText":"Volume 74","articleNumber":"127675","pageRange":"127675","trace-token":"AAAAQL38WiyCJeSn3MhPRsMytRd9gIdg3iaigwC0BDO5zpD6q9StI3xgotGDeONcTTqKg88y7Onme1qmyn2m4TJCSieLFTjLhbL298Afe3RWb3jL7mT9wA","authors":{"content":[{"#name":"author-group","$":{"id":"ag0005"},"$$":[{"#name":"author","$":{"id":"au0005","author-id":"S1618866722002187-30fdbd849e6bb28693050b48ebd330be"},"$$":[{"#name":"given-name","_":"Danielle;Department of Plant and Soil Sciences, University of Delaware, Newark, DE, USA;USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station, NRS-08, Newark, DE, USA;USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station, NRS-08, Baltimore, MD, USA;USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station, NRS-08, Delaware, OH, USA;USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station, NRS-08, Philadelphia, PA, USA;Michigan State University, Department of Horticulture, 1066 Bogue Street, East Lansing, MI 48824, USA;Michigan State University, Department of Geography, Environment, and Spatial Sciences, 673 Auditorium Road, East Lansing, MI 48824, USA;Michigan State University, Department of Forestry, 480 Wilson Road, East Lansing, MI 48824, USA;Politecnico di Torino, Interuniversity Department of Regional and Urban Studies and Planning (DIST), Viale Mattioli 39, 10125 Torino, Italy;Queensland University of Technology (QUT), QUT Design Lab, Brisbane, Australia;Queensland University of Technology (QUT), Digital Media Research Centre, Brisbane, Australia;Institute for Environmental Studies, Faculty of Science, Charles University, Prague, Benátská 2, 128 01 Praha 2, Czech Republic;Department of Zoology, Faculty of Science, Palacky University in Olomouc, 17.

- 摘要
- Urban areas have increased greatly in recent decades, which has resulted in habitat loss. However, the promotion of urban green spaces could have a profound effect on biodiversity. Traditional fruit orchards are an important land-use type with the potential to host myriad organisms. Our goal was to determine the most important factors that influence orchard biodiversity in the million city of Prague (the capital of the Czech Republic). We used a multitaxon approach to evaluate the effect of orchard restoration in a landscape context. Restoration had a positive impact on species diversity, specifically, the diversity of orthopterans and butterflies. Moreover, landscape context determined the biodiversity of orthopterans, butterflies, and birds but not that of lichens. Our study underlines the importance of both the internal and external structures of traditional fruit orchards for species richness and composition. The results of our study support the restoration of traditional fruit orchards as a suitable management practice for promoting city biodiversity. Furthermore, orchard restoration can improve the attractiveness of suburban areas. Such areas often lack sufficient urban greening. Thus, restoration in these areas can also increase future recreational value.
