dc.description.abstract | City park as the element of green openspace is a city subsystem, an ecosystem with
open system. Definitively, green openspace is a district or a surface area dominatedly
by plants that established to protect some habitat function, and or environment or city
medium, and or network protection infrastucture, and or agriculture cultivation.
Beside to increase atmospheric quality and supported water and air sustainability,
green openspace in the middle of city ecosystem can be use to increase city landscape
quality. Green openspace expected to overcome the environment problems by
absorbing the negative results caused by neighbourhood. Trees and plants has a
major role in absorbing pollution that produced by neighbourhood activities. Trees
can serve as, among others, storing carbon, not only timber but also another parts of
tress such as branches, twigs and leaves. Carbon absorbing from air as small part
become biomass. City activities triggered by population growth which increase every
year, the growth of the motorcycle reders and factories is not balanced with the
expansion of the greenspace area especially in Medan causing increasing of vehicle
smoke pollution obiter elevated levels of CO, Pb dan dust in air. Research has been
undertaking at Taman Beringin to know how much carbon capable stored in trees
and how high the level of pollution of Plumbum and dust in the green open space at
Taman Beringin. | en_US |
