Abstract:Urban blue–green spaces(BGS) exhibit a remarkable cold island (CI) effect, and research on heat mitigation measures based on CIs has attracted considerable attention. However, few studies have been conducted on mitigating urban overheating by connecting isolated CI patches to form CI networks. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the framework and specific processes for building an urban CI network in Hangzhou, China. The CI network construction framework consisted of “source identification-resistance surfac… Show more
