Modeling the Impact of the Green Roofs as a Nature-Based Solution to Mitigate the Urban Heat Island Effects over Attica, Greece

The main aim of this study is to model the Nature-based solution of Green Roofs (GRs) in order to assess their efficiency as a mitigation strategy for UHI effects and extreme summertime temperatures over Attica in Greece. The area of study is a region that encompasses Athens, the largest Metropolita...
