The influence of urban park green spaces, plant materials organization and spatial design and pattern towards carbon sequestration rate

Urban parks have been viewed as an important part of urban and community development that will facilitate social cohesion by creating space for social interactions and provide natural habitats. Apart from that, the value of urban parks nowadays as part of the living environment as reflected in highe...
