Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Due to climate change and urbanization, urban climate change is increasingly prominent with significantly environmental, economic, social, and health consequences. Addressing climate-related risks, threats and disasters in cities to a significant extent mea…ns creating resilient, healthy, safe and inclusive built environments. Such an assumption is much truer since cities are the main human settlements of human beings. Typically, urban design is an implementable and tangible pathway to practically deal with the city-climate interactions, while there should be a large transformation from unsustainable urban design patterns towards sustainable ones.Urban Climate and Urban Design is a comprehensive collection of theoretical perspectives and global case study examples focused on three core areas of (i) urban climate monitoring, assessing and forecasting, (ii) mitigation and adaptation strategies, (iii) advanced and emerging design models and tools, and (iv) action plans and policy formulation. This edited volume provides theoretical and methodological references for urban climate research and generates practical implications for mitigation and adaptation capacity improvement.This book will be of interest to a range of researchers from earth and planetary sciences and environmental sciences to engineering, architecture, and urban planning. Beyond them, this book will enlighten policy makers, practitioners, and developers how to properly regulate urban climate through design interventions. We believe this book is promising to narrow the gap in the transition towards climate-resilient cities, and enhance the understanding of new ideas, methods, strategies, and policies.
