Integrating Urban Heat Island Mitigation into Green Building Rating Systems
(Corresponding) Almashhour R., Kolo J., Beheiry S.
Topic:
Climate change adaptation
Amidst the climate crisis, cities remain the foremost cause and victims of the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect. UHI is the higher temperature observed in a city compared to nearby rural environments. The built environment, in particular buildings, are known to be highly responsible for heating up or...Read more

Topic:
Environmental data analysis and modelling
Environmental remote sensing is an increasingly useful tool for the study of large areas thanks to new sensors with high spatial resolution. These sensors could be able to identify and analyse several urban surfaces, like roofs and pavements. Thus they could be used to study urban areas for several...Read more
