Combating Urban Heat Island Effect—A Review of Reflective Pavements and Tree Shading Strategies
Pavements occupy about 40% of urban land cover, with 75–80% black top roads, playing a critical role in urban connectivity and mobility. Solar energy is absorbed and stored in pavements leading to an increase in surface temperatures.
