As urban temperatures continue high throughout the fall, the need for novel heat-reduction technologies grows. Because of the urban heat island effect, cities frequently have higher temperatures than rural settings, thus researchers are looking at new techniques to keep people cool while they are outside. One interesting solution uses chalk-coated [...]
As worldwide temperatures rise, cities around the world are dealing with the issue of urban heat islands, in which concrete and asphalt amplify summer heat. A new study conducted by academics from the University of Surrey and Southeast University (China) demonstrates that rural belts around cities can dramatically lower urban [...]
As temperatures in cities rise due to climate change, city developers and designers must develop effective ways to reduce urban heat. A recent study headed by UCL (University College London) academics, released in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, sheds fresh light on how various urban heat management systems affect city [...]
