越来越多的研究强调了城市森林提供的生态系统服务对城市生活质量的贡献，但这些服务很少在环境政策目标中得到明确考虑。我们量化城市森林提供的调节服务，并评估其对遵守西班牙巴塞罗那市空气质量和减缓气候变化政策目标的贡献。我们应用 i-Tree Eco 模型以生物物理和货币术语量化生态系统服务“空气净化”、“全球气候调节”以及与生物排放相关的生态系统损害“空气污染”。我们的研究结果表明，城市森林调节服务对减少污染的贡献从绝对值来看是巨大的，但与城市整体空气污染和温室气体排放水平相比却微不足道。我们的结论是，为了发挥作用，以绿色基础设施为基础的市级城市污染抵消工作必须与更广泛空间尺度的领土政策相协调。
Mounting research highlights the contribution of ecosystem services provided by urban forests to quality of life in cities, yet these services are rarely explicitly considered in environmental policy targets. We quantify regulating services provided by urban forests and evaluate their contribution to comply with policy targets of air quality and climate change mitigation in the municipality of Barcelona, Spain. We apply the i-Tree Eco model to quantify in biophysical and monetary terms the ecosystem services “air purification,” “global climate regulation,” and the ecosystem disservice “air pollution” associated with biogenic emissions. Our results show that the contribution of urban forests regulating services to abate pollution is substantial in absolute terms, yet modest when compared to overall city levels of air pollution and GHG emissions. We conclude that in order to be effective, green infrastructure-based efforts to offset urban pollution at the municipal level have to be coordinated with territorial policies at broader spatial scales.
