Performance assessment of sustainable cooling strategies in canarian Greenhouses: Evaluating earth-to-air heat exchanger and rock-bed systems

Greenhouse cultivation plays a vital role in enhancing food security, particularly in arid and semi-arid regions. However, maintaining optimal microclimatic conditions for crop growth during the summer months poses significant challenges. These conditions often require intensive cooling, which is ty...
