Description

Product Description Global Urban Heat Island Mitigation provides a comprehensive picture of global UHI micro-thermal interaction in different built environments. The book explains physical principles and how to moderate undesirable consequences of swift and haphazard urban development to create more sustainable and resilient cities. Sections provide extensive discussion on numerous UHI mitigation technologies and their effectiveness in cities around the globe. In addition, the book proposes novel UHI mitigation technologies and strategies while also assessing the effectiveness and suitability of UHI mitigation interventions in various climates and urban forms. Review Synthesizes theoretical and applied research on urban heat islands, from formation to mitigation, analyzing cases from cities across the globe From the Back Cover <p><i>Global Urban Heat Island Mitigation: Trends, Impacts, Strategies, and Technologies</i> provides a comprehensive picture of global UHI micro-thermal interaction in different built environments.

A global leader in the field of urban climate research, his work incorporates simulation and numerical modeling of tropical climatic events. A key focus of his research is searching for appropriate mitigation strategies and technologies to decrease the overheating of tropical urban areas while also decreasing energy consumption and protecting health. Hashem Akbari, Concordia University, has conceived, led, and supervised work in heat-island quantification and mitigation in the United States and abroad. Prior to Concordia University, he was a senior scientist and the leader of the Heat Island Group at the Environmental Energy Technologies Division of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, University of California. He is Chief Editor and Editor of several scientific journals and co-author of 5 books on related to the effects of UHIs, and author of almost 239 scientific papers published in peer reviewed international scientific journals. Francesco Fiorito, Associate Professor of Architectural Engineering, Polytechnic University of Bari, Italy and Senior Visiting Fellow, University of New South Wales, Australia. His research focuses on the development and assessment of new technologies and systems for buildings, with the aim of reducing building energy demand and improve indoor and outdoor comfort. He is in the editorial board of several scientific journals and has published more than 60 research outputs. Sk Mithun, Assistant Professor of Geography, Haldia Government College. His research primarily focuses on urbanization, urban sprawl, modeling urban growth and land use/land cover dynamics. Dev Niyogi is Dave P. Carelton Centennial Professor in the Department of Geological Sciences at Jackson School of Geosciences, and Department of Civil, Architectural, and Environmental Engineering in The University of Texas at Austin, Texas, USA.
