Mitigation and Adaptation of Urban Overheating aims to analyze and present all existing relative studies to investigate the global magnitude and characteristics of the ambient temperature drop and the reduction of the heat burden resulting from modified climate conditions due to the implementation of urban mitigation and adaptation technologies and policies.
The proposed book will discuss urban overheating, urban heat mitigation, governance, anthropogenic heat emissions, adaptation and adaptation technologies and their impacts on urban environmental quality, urban health, energy supply and demand, low-income and aged populations, the economy of cities. Mitigation and Adaptation of Urban Overheating incorporates recent developments on urban climatology, urban overheating, mitigation and adaptation technologies.
