| Abstract: |
| Trees have a substantial influence on windspeed, maximum temperature during the day (especially
on the hottest days of the year), humidity, minimum temperature and possibly play a role in
modification of rainfall. Where the actual climate for crops, livestock and people is involved, one of
the most effective things that people can do is manage trees, including tree planting. However, the
official climate data that form the basis for climate policy exclude such effects and scientists are only
slowly coming to grips with this issue. The CooLTree method contrasts the local, public/policy and
science-based knowledge. |
