Vegetated Roofs: Performance and Policy in Athens, Ga
Urban land area in the United States is projected to increase to 8.1% of total land area by the year 2050. These human-dominated environments create conditions that degrade both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. If cities are to reduce their environmental impact, innovative practices must be developed that replace ecosystem services lost during the urbanization process. This study evaluated t...
متن کاملEnergy savings in buildings or UHI mitigation? Comparison between green roofs and cool roofs
The intensification of the Urban Heat Island effect (UHI) is a problem that involves several fields, and new adequate solutions are required to mitigate its amplitude. The construction sector is strictly related with this phenomenon; in particular, roofs are the envelope components subject to the highest solar irradiance, hence any mitigation strategy should start from them and involve their ap...

متن کاملHydroponics Roofs for Saving Energy of Green Schools in the Cold and Dry climate of Iran: A Comparative Study between Two Broad and Modular Hydroponic Green Roofs
Green schools are a new type of school, in which the use of renewable energy is less than that of conventional schools. In this regard, nowadays, adding green layers to the roof of schools, in addition to increasing the Students' communication with nature, energy saving has improved in these spaces. However, to improve energy saving yield, the priority of these types of roofs in different clima...
متن کاملRoofs and Convexity
Convex roof extensions are widely used to create entanglement measures in quantum information theory. The aim of the article is to present some tools which could be helpful for their treatment. Sections 2 and 3 introduce into the subject. It follows descriptions of the Wootters’ method, of the “subtraction procedure”, and examples on how to use symmetries.
