Neighborhood-scale reductions in heatwave burden projected under a 30% minimum tree cover scenario

Abstract Cities pursuing nature-based solutions to mitigate heatwaves need tools to estimate cooling benefits from increased tree canopy cover. This study applied the i-Tree Cool Air model and a heatwave degree day (HWDD) metric to quantify reductions in heatwave severity if neighborhoods in 10 Ital...
