Towards the next generation of green building for urban heat island mitigation: Zero UHI impact building

Sustainable cities and society, 2019
At present, cities are under the threats of global warming and urban heat island (UHI) phenomenon, where buildings are an important cause and also the sufferer of urban overheating.

Construction of a cold island network for the urban heat island effect mitigation.

Science of the Total Environment
The urban heat island (UHI) effect seriously challenges sustainable urban development strategies and livability. Numerous studies have explored the UHI problem from the perspective of isolated blue and green patches, ignoring the overall function of cold

Synergistic control of urban heat island and urban pollution island effects using green infrastructure.

Journal of Environmental Management
Urban heat island (UHI) and urban pollution island (UPI) effects are two major challenges that affect the liveability and sustainability of cities under the circumstance of climate change. However, existing studies mostly addressed them separately. Urban

Cool façade optimization: A new parametric methodology for the urban heat island phenomenon (UHI)

2017 IEEE International Conference on Environment and Electrical Engineering and 2017 IEEE Industrial and Commercial Power Systems Europe (EEEIC / I&CPS Europe), 2017
In recent years, the urban climate has been progressively changing due to different causes that affect the environmental conditions. One consequence of this metamorphosis and the growing building density is known as the urban heat island (UHI) factor, which alters the quality of outdoor spaces due to the overheating of building surfaces.

URBAN RESILIENCE THROUGH GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE: MITIGATING THE URBAN HEAT ISLAND (UHI) EFFECT

Rapid urbanization has intensified the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect, leading to rising ambient temperatures, increased energy demand, and deteriorating thermal comfort in cities. This review explores the role of green infrastructure in addressing these challenges, emphasizing their effectiveness in mitigating urban heat island effect and in turn ...
