Scientific studies about the role of urban green spaces (UGSs) in biodiversity conservation
and climate change mitigation are limited in develo** countries. Therefore, the aim of this …

Despite the evidence on the cooling effects of urban green spaces (UGS), little is known
about how they function as an interconnected network of cold green patches or a green heat …

The effects of urban heat islands (UHIs) comprise one of the most challenging issues in
mitigating excessive heat. Existing studies have reported cooling effects from small …

Urban greening is a practical adaptation to improve the liveability of a city by providing
urban cooling. This paper systematically evaluates the existing literature to understand the …

The benefits of urban green and blue infrastructure (UGI) are widely discussed, but rarely
take into account local conditions or contexts. Although assessments increasingly consider …

In this initial study of a research project, this paper seeks to understand the thermal
