Abstract
Sampling method was employed to investigate the structure and ecological benefits of street trees in the area within Second Ring Road of Shenyang. The study area covers about 161 km2£¬and 61 main roads. Based on the field data, the i-Tree (STRATUM) model was run to analyze street trees¡¯structure and ecological benefits. The results showed that there were 19 street tree species in the study area, which were belong to 13 families and 15 genera. The most common tree species are Sophora japonica, Populus alba, and Fraxinus chinensis, the percentage of which reached 68.32% of the total population. The proportion of small trees (d.b.h.
