اصلاح درجه حرارت شهری در اقلیم گرم - مرطوب از طریق رویکرد طراحی منظره: بررسی

This paper discusses a conceptual review of local and micro scale approaches that incorporate the principles of sustainable landscape design as mitigating strategies to improve urban thermal comfort in a warm and humid climate. The modification of urban temperature through landscape approach can be achieved by incorporating sustainable landscape design practices via the interplay of natural vegetation in the hot-humid tropics. The findings of this paper is hoped to guide the practitioners in landscape architecture, policy makers and urban designers to incorporate sustainable landscape design approach towards improving outdoor thermal comfort; thus providing a better quality of life.
