Dr Riccardo Paolini, UNSW: Urban heat mitigation in Sydney - from monitoring to implementation

UNSW’s innovative heat measurement programs have identified heat mitigation strategies and quantified their benefits to the local climate, energy and health. Riccardo will explore their findings so far, and the potential ways heat mitigation can be implemented in the Greater Sydney Area through urban design and advanced materials.
