Intensifying the proportion of urban green infrastructure has been considered as one of the
remedies for air pollution levels in cities, yet the impact of numerous vegetation types …

Students spend nearly one third of their typical day in the school environment, where they
may be exposed to harmful air pollutants. A consolidated knowledge base of interventions to …

As evidence for the devastating impacts of air pollution on human health continues to
increase, improving urban air quality has become one of the most pressing tasks facing …

Rapid urbanization has contributed to urban heat islands, which can potentially lead to
increased energy consumption and carbon emissions, further worsening global warming …

The global trend towards urbanisation explains the growing interest in the study of the
modification of the urban climate due to the heat island effect and global warming, and its …

Protecting the health of growing urban populations from air pollution remains a challenge for
planners and requires detailed understanding of air flow and pollutant transport in the built …

Road traffic represents the dominant source of air pollution in urban street canyons. Local
wind conditions greatly impacts the dispersion of these pollutants, yet street trees complicate …

Understanding pollutant dispersion in the urban environment is an important aspect of
providing solutions to reduce personal exposure to vehicle emissions. To this end, the …

This paper deals with aerodynamic effects of avenue-like tree planting on flow and traffic-
originated pollutant dispersion in urban street canyons by means of wind tunnel experiments …

This paper first discusses the aerodynamic effects of trees on local scale flow and pollutant
concentration in idealized street canyon configurations by means of laboratory experiments …
