Abstract

The increase in urban trees is an progressively common practice around the world given its importance in the provision of different environmental services, although its establishment is carried out under variable space conditions that may impact its development. In this study, the variation of functional traits of six species of the woodland of Bogotá in relation to different methods of sites used in the city was analyzed. The results showed that not all species responded in the same way to the sealing conditions of the soils, in which some benefited from the increase in impervious surfaces, some were affected and others did not show significant changes between different locations. These findings highlight the importance of recognizing the functional component of species in urban areas as a tool for management, seeking to maximize their development and the offer of environmental services.
