Construction of a composite cooling network for the mitigation of urban heat risk in Fuzhou

Frontiers in Environmental Science
Climate change has intensified urban heat risks through extreme heat and heat island effects. Using Fuzhou as a case study, we conducted assessments of heat risk and cool island quality to identify core heat risk sources (CHRSs) and core cold sources ...
