How do paving and planting strategies affect microclimate conditions and thermal comfort in apartment complexes?
Purpose – In cities with high density, heat is often trapped between buildings which increases the frequency and intensity of heat events. Researchers have focused on developing strategies to mitigate the negative impacts of heat in cities. Adopting green infrastructure and cooling pavements are som...
