My research project
A holistic framework for assessing co-benefits of street-scale green infrastructure interventionsThe use of green infrastructures (GI) such as roadside hedges, trees, green walls, and roofs in urban areas is on the rise since they can help to abate the exposure to traffic emissions in roadside environments and offer many other co-benefits such as heat amelioration to reduce the impact of urban heat island, noise reduction and increased biodiversity. However, these benefits (including moderating air pollution) are very sensitive to local contexts and badly planned GI can make situations worse or achieve only limited co-benefits. This project will use a combination of experimental and modelling approaches to build such a framework.
