Comparative microclimate and dewfall measurements at an urban green roof versus bitumen roof
Urban green roofs are discussed as a local climate adaptation measure to limit surface warming and increase evaporative cooling by vegetation in urban environments. A five month measurement campaign was conducted to observe surface and air temperatures as well as dewfall dynamics and amounts on an urban green and co-located bitumen roof. Measurements were performed in the period from August to ...
متن کاملQuantifying Evapotranspiration from a Green Roof Analytically
Green roofs are a common stormwater control measure used to help mitigate increased stormwater runoff caused by urbanization. Green roofs can retain upwards of 90% of rain given the appropriate conditions. Green roof design parameters, such as substrate composition and depth and plant type, affect the retention capabilities of green roofs by storing and allowing greater extraction of water by p...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Thermal Performance of Green Roof on a Mild Warm Climate
Global warming has become a threat of our time. It poses challenges to the existence of all biota on this earth and has made a clear impact on the level of energy and water consumption. No doubt, increase in the ambient temperature increases indoor and outdoor temperature level of the buildings which catalyzes the use of energy and cost intensive mechanical air-conditioning systems. Green roof ...
متن کاملIntegration of green roof and solar photovoltaic systems
Green roof and solar photovoltaic (PV) systems are two technologies that could contribute to sustainable building development and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. When they are combined together on the building roof, it can enhance their functions and effectiveness by cooling and shading effects. This paper explains the major findings of a research to study the benefits of integrating gre...
متن کاملDesign, Implementation, and Monitoring of Purdue's First Green Roof
To educate the Purdue community and general public about the environmental benefits of green roofs, the Boiler Green Initiative (BGI) installed Tippecanoe County’s first green roof on Purdue’s campus in May 2009. The extensive green roof is approximately 165 m and consists of vegetation and pavers to make the space an aesthetically pleasing, usable environment. A monitoring system records surfa...
