Integrated tree canopy expansion and cool roofs can optimize air temperature and heat exposure reductions in Boston

Abstract Tree canopy expansion and albedo management represent pathways to reduce urban heat. Here we develop a statistical model to downscale coarse resolution estimates of air temperature and estimate marginal impacts of tree canopy and cool roof solutions across southern New England during 2021–2...
