3. Climate regulation provided by urban greening - examples from a high latitude city
Sammanfattning : Cities exert a strong influence on urban climate, and consequently on human health and wellbeing. This increases the importance of considering climate issues in urban planning, particularly in the context of global climate change. One of the key adaptation strategies in climate-sensitive planning is urban greenery. LÄS MER
4. Urban Design and Outdoor Thermal Comfort in Warm Climates. Studies in Fez and Colombo
Sammanfattning : In many developing tropical countries, rapid urban growth leads to several problems, including increased thermal stress. This has negative consequences for people's health and well-being, and affects social and commercial outdoor activities negatively. LÄS MER
5. Sustainable Urban and Regional Development and Related Ecosystem Services and Water-Climate Interactions
Sammanfattning : To accommodate a growing global population while mitigating climate change, urban areas must grow while minimising environmental impacts. To achieve this, a city must be treated as a complex socio-ecological system in which many actors and subsystems act in unclear and unpredictable ways. LÄS MER
