摘要 Through the investigation of the species of street trees located along the main urban roads in Hefei City, a total of 22 species were selected, belonging to 16 families and 22 genera, with the Sapindaceae family being the most prevalent. In this study, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was employed to assess the comprehensive value of 22 species of street trees applied along the main urban roads in Hefei City. Fourteen evaluation criteria were selected from four categories: morphological indices, functional indices, resistance indices, and management indices, to develop a comprehensive evaluation model. Based on a composite score derived from 22 street trees, these trees were classified into three distinct grades. Grade I (L≥3.0) exhibited a high comprehensive application value in Hefei City and included 6 tree species, such as Platanus. Grade II (2.5≤L<3.0) also demonstrated a high comprehensive application value, comprising 15 tree species, including Catalpa bungei. In contrast, grade III (L<2.5) indicated a general comprehensive application value, represented by a single species, Cedrus deodara. The evaluation results can offer theoretical insights for the selection of urban street trees.
