- Abstract in English : Numerous researchers have documented the values of urban trees. These values include beatification, shade, wildlife, habitat, erosion control and air purification. It is widely agreed that many of those values are either intangible or at least very difficult to measure. Nevertheless, they are important to urban an suburban residents and result in numerous disputes between cities, landowners and individuals over the costs of provision, maintenance, and removal of trees from urban and sub urban streets. The results of this study suggest, however, the need for more caution in ascribing economic value to suburban street trees and for more research into the processes people use in weighing the risks and the benefits of tree plantings. KEYWORDS: trees, street trees, economic value, perceived values.
