Computer-Aided Greenery Design-Prototype Green Structure Improving Human Health in Urban Ecosystem

Dominik Sedzicki et al.

Summary: Increasing population and urbanization, along with climate change consequences, have impacted public health and well-being. The role of greenery in urban environments and its effects on human health are explored as a potential solution. The article proposes an automated greenery design method combined with rapid prototyping, following a theoretical analysis and using the CDIO framework and SiL and HiL methods for research. A complex evaluation using an applied test model ensures quality and provides directions for further development.

Space-time estimation of the urban heat island in Rome (Italy): Overall assessment and effects on the energy performance of buildings

Gabriele Battista et al.

Summary: The study examines the impact of Urban Heat Island (UHI) on building energy performance in Rome, Italy, using data from 23 weather stations. Geographic Information System (GIS) analysis is used to explore correlations between urban features and UHI. Dynamic simulations based on different weather data are conducted to estimate heating and cooling energy needs for two types of residential buildings. The results show significant temperature differences due to UHI, with variations ranging from -33.28% to 93.25% for heating and cooling energy demands.

Optimized greenery configuration to mitigate urban heat: A decade systematic review

Jiawei Fu et al.

Summary: This study reviews 85 optimized urban vegetation configuration studies and finds that the size, quantity, and layout of urban green space, as well as the physiological characteristics and spatial arrangement of urban vegetation, have a significant impact on cooling effects. However, there is still a need for further research on the interaction and cumulative effects of natural and artificial factors in the urban environment, especially in southern hemisphere cities.

Summer urban heat island mitigation strategy development for high-anthropogenic-heat-emission blocks

Yuan Chen et al.

Summary: This study explores the spatial and temporal differences in microclimate in high-anthropogenic-heat-emission areas in Xi'an, China. It identifies important variables, such as green cover ratio, impervious surface area ratio, sky view factor, and reflectivity, that affect microclimate. The findings improve the prediction of high summer temperatures in high-anthropogenic-heat-emission areas and provide guidance for mitigating urban heat island effects.

Computer-Aided Automated Greenery Design-Towards a Green BIM

Dominik Sedzicki et al.

Summary: Contemporary climate challenges have led to an increased focus and interest among architects, resulting in a broader spectrum of knowledge. While existing software allows for vegetation design, it is often limited and requires specialized knowledge. This study proposes a new complex digital method of selecting and designing greenery based on a parameter spreadsheet. By reviewing and investigating software used by designers, the study identifies various tools for greenery design. The study also suggests a theoretical model for automated plant selection and different greenery scenarios that can be integrated into the early stages of the design process.

Urban Air Pollution, Urban Heat Island and Human Health: A Review of the Literature

Awais Piracha et al.

Summary: Many cities in the world suffer from air pollution due to poor planning and heavy traffic, which is further worsened by the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect. Previous studies have ignored the impact of UHI on air pollution and health. The literature on urban planning and technology fields focuses on promoting physical activity, reducing vehicle emissions, and utilizing green infrastructure and materials to reduce air pollution and UHI. This paper provides a systematic review of academic papers and policy documents in order to identify the main themes and impacts of urban air pollution and UHI on human health.

Reinterpreting Spatial Planning Cultures to Define Local Adaptation Cultures: A Methodology from the Central Veneto Region Case

Giovanni Litt et al.

Summary: This paper focuses on recognizing the underlying component of climate risk adaptation and management at the local planning level. Through a comparative analysis of four Italian cities in the Central Veneto Area, it is found that considerable attention has already been paid to flooding-related and heat-related issues in the local planning corpus. This understanding allows for access to adaptation intervention models that are already integrated into the planning system.

Integrating Copernicus land cover data into the i-Tree Cool Air model to evaluate and map urban heat mitigation by tree cover

Rocco Pace et al.

Summary: This research aims to develop a methodology for cities to map air temperature and humidity using publicly available land cover maps, and analyze the impact of vegetation and soil moisture on heat wave severity and urban heat island effect. The study shows that a healthy vegetated landscape and adequate soil water can alleviate heat wave severity, while impervious surfaces contribute to the urban heat island effect.

Summary: This study evaluated the impact of NBS on urban flood risk by simulating the hydrological balance in urbanized areas, showing that the implementation of NBS can reduce rainwater runoff, especially in highly urbanized areas. Among the NBS tested, rain gardens were the most effective, followed by permeable pavements and green roofs.

Tree species richness and diversity predicts the magnitude of urban heat island mitigation effects of greenspaces

Xinjun Wang et al.

Summary: By studying the tree community structure of greenspaces in Changzhou, China, it was found that indicators such as the Shannon-Wiener diversity index, tree species richness, and tree canopy coverage are closely related to the strength of the cooling effect, with varying seasonal impacts. Mean crown width is positively correlated with the cooling range in summer and autumn, while greenspace tree density is negatively correlated with the cooling range in winter.

Modeling lives saved from extreme heat by urban tree cover?

Paramita Sinha et al.

Summary: Urban tree cover has a positive impact on human health by reducing the impact of extreme heat, particularly on vulnerable populations like individuals over the age of 65. Increasing tree cover can significantly reduce mortality rates, with the potential to inform climate adaptation and mitigation plans for decision makers.

Spatial configuration and time of day impact the magnitude of urban tree canopy cooling

Michael Alonzo et al.

Summary: The study shows that trees can lower air temperatures in urban environments. The cooling effects of hard and soft canopies vary at different times of day, with soft canopies showing the most significant cooling effect in the evening. Distributed canopies have better cooling effects in predawn and evening, which is crucial for urban heat island mitigation planning.
