Evaluating the Hydrologic and Thermal Performance of a Green Roof in Syracuse: Measurements and Modeling of a Full-Scale System
… roof area in urban neighborhoods. However, their hydrologic performance and thermal properties are unclear, due to a lack of qualitative and quantitative analyses on monitored full-scale green roofs. In particular, few studies have focused on factors that impact the hydrologic performance of green …
