Monitoring of a Productive Blue-Green Roof Using Low-Cost Sensors

<p>A productive blue-green roof, being intensive, involves considerable operating costs. Low-cost sensor technologies could provide reliable solutions that integrate real-time management practices in distributed monitoring of the changes that plants and soil experience in such roofs.

Retention capacity and thermal properties of a multilayer blue-green roof in Sardinia: two years of monitoring

Many different nature-based solutions have been proposed in the literature to contribute to the sustainable development of the urban environment. Among them, multilayer blue-green roofs are becoming more and more popular, thanks to their multiple benefits. As traditional green roofs, the multilayer ones guarantee high retention capacity during rainfall

How do multilayer blue-green roofs affect the runoff water quality?&#160;

To ensure a sustainable urban development, the large-scale implementation of green roofs and, more in general, of several nature-based solutions is an essential aspect to be considered. Thanks to their multiple benefits (e.g., pluvial flood mitigation, acoustic and thermal insulation of building, urban heat island reduction, air quality improvement ...

The role of condensation from below in soil moisture dynamics within multilayer blue–green roofs

In urban areas, green roofs are increasingly adopted due to their multiple environmental benefits and their ability to mitigate hydro-meteorological risks. Among them, Multilayer Blue–Green Roofs include an additional storage layer that enhances pluvial flood mitigation by retaining excess water that percolates from the soil layer.
