In recent years, the ozone concentration has been increasing in the troposphere. This phenomenon is particularly evident in regions characterised by high photochemical activity, high temperature and seasonal drought, such as the Mediterranean area. The combination of tropospheric ozone and climatic conditions is considered to be the main impact factor for the damage of Mediterranean ecosystems. The aim of this work is to assess, by remote sensing, the multitemporal trend of structural and functional vegetation indices in holm-oak woods in the Rome metropolitan area, in relation to drought summer stress and air pollutants.

Abstract
In recent years, the ozone concentration has been increasing in the troposphere. This phenomenon is particularly evident in regions characterised by high photochemical activity, high temperature and seasonal drought, such as the Mediterranean area. The combination of tropospheric ozone and climatic conditions is considered to be the main impact factor for the damage of Mediterranean ecosystems. The aim of this work is to assess, by remote sensing, the multitemporal trend of structural and functional vegetation indices in holm-oak woods in the Rome metropolitan area, in relation to drought summer stress and air pollutants.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
