Traffic pollution and roadside plants
Estimates of the levels of atmospheric pollution may be made by recording the presence or absence of common sensitive indicator species. The results of a simple survey might extend the range of plant material thought to be suitable for use in an urban area. Research by the author suggests however that some of the sensitive indicator species used seem to respond not only to sulphur dioxide but to proximity to busy roads, and there may be implications not only in the use of airpollution indicator species near roads, but in terms of roadside environmental conditions in general.
