Transforming Heat Islands into Neat Islands

2018
The resilience of cities has become an important topic to be considered by authorities in planning (MYRIVILI 2017, oral). Nowadays, many cities need to face various problems caused by environment, such as earthquakes, heat islands or floods (ibid.). The case study takes place in the centre of the city of Athens, to which the main emphasis has been paid

Urban Heat Islands

2014
As global warming continues, we are facing another significant issue: the temperature increases during summer in urban areas due to a factor other than global warming. The urban heat island (UHI) is a phenomenon that occurs when the temperature in an urban area becomes higher than that in a suburban area. Moreover, as urbanization advances year by year,
