Deciduous trees contribute to a more comfortable thermal environment by reducing the impact of solar radiation in summer and allowing more solar radiation in winter. These effects are influenced by tree geometry. Many studies on how leaves and branches affect the radiation interruption process have been conducted; however, little is known about the difference in effects produced by the various tree species used for urban landscaping in Japan. This paper discusses the solar shading effects of an isolated tree and presents a numerical analysis using a computer graphics (CG) tree model.
