Abstract:
The green roof is an environmentally friendly design, which is important for sustainable development and improvement of resilience in urban areas. This paper offers a systematically review of the classification, material selection, functionality, limiting factors of green roofs, and provides suggestions. The green roof is classified into intensive, extensive and semi-intensive ones according to the substrate depth and vegetation type. Its basic structure includes vegetation, substrate, filter, drainage, protection, anti-root, insulation and waterproofing layers from top to base. Among which, v

Abstract:
As the green area continues to get replaced because of the increase in population and urbanization, the requirement to recover this area has become crucial for improving environmental quality. Installation of green roofs is one way that can curb the negative affect of growth and establishment while providing various environmental and economical benefits. Various names are given to green roofs such as “eco-roofs”, “roof-gardens”, etc. And these are roofs with vegetation at the top surface. The most specific reason for installing green roofs in the building is because of its energy efficiency. A

The objective of this study was to compare the hydrological performance of an irrigated, 127 mm deep green roof, planted with vegetation native to the New York City area, to a conventional, non-irrigated, 100 mm deep green roof, planted with drought-tolerant Sedum spp. Four years of climate and runoff data from both green roofs were analyzed to determine seasonal stormwater retention. Empirical relationships between rainfall and runoff were developed for both roofs, and applied to historical rainfall data in order to compare stormwater retention values for different rainfall depths.

Abstract:
Extensive green roofs provide for many ecosystem services in urban environments. The efficacy of these services is influenced by the vegetation structure. Despite their key role in plant performance and productivity, but also their contribution to nitrogen fixation or carbon sequestration, green roof microbial communities have received little attention so far. No study included a spatiotemporal aspect to investigate the core microbiota residing in the substrates of extensive green roofs, although these key taxa are hypothesized to be amongst the most ecologically important taxa.

In hot and arid climates, developing green roofs to improve the microclimate and thermal comfort faces challenges due to water scarcity and harsh climate conditions. To evaluate the effect of green roof types on microclimate parameters and thermal comfort, a simulation was conducted in Yazd, Iran, using the ENVI-met model. Three scenarios—intensive green roofs, extensive green roofs, and roofs without vegetation—were simulated using meteorological data from 7:00 am to 6:00 PM during the hottest period of the year.

This research examines the performance of green roof architectural designs in enhancing energy efficiency in buildings within tropical and subtropical climates. Green roofs, which integrate vegetation and planting media, can improve energy efficiency by reducing the heat absorbed by buildings, thereby increasing indoor thermal comfort and lowering the need for air conditioning. The study employs a comparative method to analyse the performance of green roofs in improving energy efficiency across both climates.

Due to an increase in impermeable hard surfaces, urbanization has led to the deterioration of urban watercourses and increased the quantity of stormwater runoff.

The use of green roofs is increasing in many countries because of their benefits to the urban environment. However, only a few plant selection studies for green roofs have been carried out and little information on plant performance on roof environments is available in the UK climate. As a result, only a limited range of plants such as Sedum spp. are commonly used for green roofs, especially for shallow substrate green roofs. Therefore, this thesis investigates plant selection for extensive green roofs in the UK. The work in this thesis focused on the following objectives. (1) To identify grou

Urban populations worldwide are expanding rapidly and consequently a large number of people are becoming exposed to hazards inherent in cites. Phenomena such as the urban heat island can exacerbate the effects of heatwaves, and land surface sealing can lead to flash flooding. Cities are also the sites of enhanced air and water pollution from non-point sources such as concentrated motor vehicle use. Climate change predictions for the UK include increased winter precipitation and an increase in frequency of summer heatwaves. This will put further pressure on urban residents and infrastructure. R

Abstract:
Evapotranspiration is one of the major components of Earth’s Water Balance, being the sum of evaporation and plant transpiration from the land and ocean surface. This report documents edcrop, a Python package that use climate input to simulate field-scale evapotranspiration and drainage from the root zone of an area covered with a crop, a wetland, or a forest. The conceptual model implemented in edcrop is a modification of the Evacrop model by Olesen and Heidmann (2002), which itself builds on the Watcros model by Aslyng and Hansen (1982). The edcrop conceptualization is based on consideration

It says that caring for nature and caring for people must walk hand in hand. When a new mine opens, a highway stretches through a community, o
