TLDR
The effect of BVOC emission on the O3 uptake by the trees is further complicating the interactions BV OC-O3, thus making challenging the estimation of the calculation of BvOC effect on O3 concentration at urban level.About:

Tropospheric ozone and its precursors from the urban to the global scale from air quality to short-lived climate forcer
Paul S. Monks,Alexander T. Archibald,Augustin Colette,Owen R. Cooper,Mhairi Coyle,Richard G. Derwent,David Fowler,Claire Granier,Claire Granier,Claire Granier,Kathy S. Law,Gina Mills,David Stevenson,Oksana Tarasova,Valérie Thouret,E. von Schneidemesser,Roberto Sommariva,Oliver Wild,Martin L. Williams +18 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review examines current understanding of the processes regulating tropospheric ozone at global to local scales from both measurements and models and takes the view that knowledge across the scales is important for dealing with air quality and climate change in a synergistic manner.

The Urban Forest and Ecosystem Services: Impacts on Urban Water, Heat, and Pollution Cycles at the Tree, Street, and City Scale
TL;DR: A transdisciplinary framework to support future urban forest research is proposed to better understand and communicate the role of urban trees in urban biogeochemical cycles that are highly disturbed, highly managed, and of paramount importance to human health and well-being.

TL;DR: By ensuring that the specific aim of the intervention, the scale of the desired biophysical effect and an awareness of a range of impacts guide the choice of tree species, location and density of tree placement, street trees can be an important tool for urban planners and designers in developing resilient and resourceful cities in an era of climatic change.
