Study on Surface Heat Budget of Various Pavements for Urban Heat Island Mitigation
The surface heat budgets of various pavement surfaces are studied with the aim of mitigating the urban heat island effect. In this study, the thermal characteristics of pavements are examined using data from observations. The net radiation, surface temperature, temperature under the surface, conduct...
