Street tree alignments are among the most common green spaces within urban areas. The aim of this study was to assess the interspecific variability and the degree of defoliation of the trees within street alignments situated along four of the most common boulevards from Bucharest, namely Kiseleff, Ştefan cel Mare, Virtuţii and Timişoara. The total evaluated distance was 17.6 km. 1621 trees were sampled and more than 30 taxa were recorded. Autochthonous species were more numerous, compared with the allochthonous ones, but the non-indigenous trees were better represented, mainly due to the large number of London plane tree, northern red oak and horse-chestnut. The most common autochthonous species were smallleaved lime, silver linden and narrow-leafed ash. Half of the species were large, reaching heights up to 25 m or more. All four boulevards were dominated by three species. Almost 80% of the trees were in good health and only 7% were almost dead. Several tree features in accordance with the conditions for establishment of future street tree alignments were discussed.

Invasive alien forest insect species in south-eastern Romania

“…The establishment of alien forest insect species is facilitated by the large number of parks in Bucharest, with their great variety of woody species (Diaconescu et al, 1986;Colesca and Alpopi, 2011;Nagodă et al, 2014;Badea and Enescu, 2016), while transport, in particular, and economic activities facilitate their spread to other areas of the country. An example is O. robiniae, which three years after its first detection was present not only in the vicinity of Bucharest but also in Arad (Bálint et al, 2010) and in the north-eastern part of the country (Olenici and Duduman, 2016).…”

Auditors' Independence, Audit Tenureship, Firm Characteristics and Audit Quality: Evidence From Nigeria

“…Human resource management in the health sector is characterized by its specificity, given by the presence of a specialized and diverse workforce, comprising distinct professions and often represented by professional associations or trade unions. For staff with specific occupations in the health system, such as doctors and nurses, the main priority is given to the patient and the practice of their profession, and only then to employer-related concerns (Badea et al, 2006).…”
