“…For example, community-led tree-planting initiatives can involve residents caring for and managing urban trees, creating a sense of ownership and community pride. These initiatives can also provide additional bene􀅫its such as employment opportunities and income generation [24]. Urban forestry has several bene􀅫its in combating UHI effects.…”

Urban heat islands are one of the biggest challenges for urban habitats. The two parallel worlds are growing together on this planet, one full of new opportunities for urbanization and another with shrinking green covers. High-density, high-rise development is a part of the 􀅫irst category of the world, i.e., a more urbanized one. It takes limited land resources to develop housing for more people by keeping more green covers intact than low-rise development. The dense developments are good for accessibility to different amenities and facilities. However, these developments pose challenges to sustainable development. However, the energy requirements are higher in highrise-high-density settlements, and simultaneously, such developments challenge solar access to solar power. It eventually causes enormous growth in the environmental footprints of such urban habitats, resulting in higher surface temperature through the urban heat island effect. The study aims to explore the effectiveness of urban forestry in combating the increased surface temperature in highly dense cities. The study adopts a case study approach and investigates 􀅫ive different cases of cities where urban forestry was adopted as a mitigation measure to cut down urban heat island effects.

The changes in theoretical urban planning concepts under the influence of transdisciplinarity are investigated. On the example of the definition of "urban vegetation", the variability of the use of linguistic and content structures for its description is discussed. A brief review of texts illustrating the transition from the concept of "resource assessment" (which is centered on the analysis of the consumer value of individual natural components of the urban environment) to the concept of "anthropo-eco-system" (focused on a qualitative assessment of the current state of individual components of the system) is presented. The theme of natural components inherent in the past decades is giving way to a modern view of system components of various origins. The question is raised about the need to rethink a number of theoretical foundations of urban planning in order to deepen their internal links with the socio-economic and cultural agenda.
