          “If we take care of trees, they take care of us, and might even help save our lives,” said Harrison C. Garcia, a student at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and the lead author on the study. “They’re not just a luxury. They’re not just something to look at.”

          neighborhoods between 2011 and 2021. Disparity in tree cover was wide. Some of those areas, like Forest Glen, have canopies of close to 50 percent. But some lower-income neighborhoods are practically barren of tree cover. Archer Heights, an immigrant enclave on the southwest side, stands at 8 percent tree coverage.

         <span>
          Instead of focusing on absolute numbers, the researchers matched changes in tree canopy over the years with mortality rates in those neighborhoods. They found that “each year-to-year percent increase in canopy was associated with around a 10 percent reduction in mortality” and that a .03 percent year-to-year increase in tree cover (roughly, 14,000 new trees) would theoretically result in 105 fewer deaths per year.

          Decreases in deaths from chronic diseases — including respiratory and cardiovascular conditions, as well as from mental illness — partly drove that drop.

          “The year-over-year piece is really, really fascinating,” said Michelle Stuhlmacher, an associate professor of geography at DePaul University in Chicago, who also studies the city’s tree canopy. “It shows longer-term investments or disinvestments.”

          Studies have previously shown an association between tree cover and public health outcomes. The new study is novel because it tracks how the tree canopy expands or contracts in response to development, natural disasters and other forces, and how those changes in turn appear to correlate to communitywide health.

          Mr. Garcia stressed that the study did not describe an explicitly causal relationship between tree canopy and mortality. Nor did it investigate the reasons behind canopy fluctuation.

          In 2022, Lori E. Lightfoot, who was the Chicago mayor at the time, committed to planting 75,000 new trees across the city, with an eye toward less wealthy neighborhoods on the city’s South and West sides. Last year, the current mayor, Brandon Johnson, said that 68,000 trees had been planted.

          But a sapling can take years to develop into a tree that becomes part of a canopy. And the sapling might not make it at all, especially under the increasing stress of climate change, which not only brings high temperatures but also more intense storms.

          Mr. Garcia said that the work of maintaining a tree canopy, whether by planting new trees or preserving old ones, has to be ongoing in order to be successful. “Our models point in the direction that only continuous work to expand tree canopy could save lives,” he said. “If we choose to do nothing, while climate change worsens and canopy continues to decrease, the consequences could be much more dramatic than the gains we see.”
