ABSTRACT Extreme heat can push plants beyond their thermal safety margin (TSM) if maximum leaf temperature (Tleaf_max) exceeds leaf critical temperature (Tcrit). The TSM is potentially useful for assessing heat vulnerability across species but needs further validation, so we exposed 50 tree/shrub species in controlled glasshouses to a 6‐day heatwave ...

Urban forestry and microclimate
2017This chapter presents knowledge concerning the effects of urban trees and forests on urban microclimate variables and human thermal comfort. Benefits of urban vegetation are evidenced by the growing interest on urban tree planting as an energy use control during summer. The chapter is divided into three sections. The first is dedicated to the effect of

A review of the impact of blue space on the urban microclimate
Science of The Total Environment, 2020The urban heat island (UHI) phenomenon represents a major public health issue and has received great attention due to rapid urbanisation. Blue spaces have long been considered a possible mitigation strategy to ameliorate the UHI. However, our knowledge regarding the interaction of waterbodies with their urban surroundings is still limited.

Urban Microclimates and Simulation
2013This chapter examines the workings of urban microclimates and looks at the associated causes and effects of the urban heat island (UHI). It also clarifies the relationship between urban form and the key climatic parameters (sun, daylight, wind, and temperature). A particular section is devoted to the concepts of UHI intensity and sky view factor (SVF);
