Reflective ‘cool’ roofs under aerosol-burdened skies: radiative benefits across selected Indian cities
The use of reflective surfaces offers one low-cost solution for reducing solar loading to urban environments and the Earth that should be considered as part of sustainable urban design. Here, we characterize the radiative benefits, i.e. the additional shortwave radiation leaving the atmosphere, from...
