The contribution of urban trees to microclimate and pollutant dispersion from local to city scaleIn a context of global warming and urban population growth, preventing the health risks associated with heat waves and high exposure to anthropogenic pollutants is a major challenge. The introduction of trees in cities is often encouraged to regulate the urban heat island and improve thermal comfort.

Vincent Lostanlen alongside his team of researchers from the Laboratory of Digital Sciences of Nantes (LS2N) have successfully established the basic technology for a wireless, battery-free acoustic biosensor.
