Abstract:Green infrastructure (GI) is one factor that reduces the intensity of Urban Heat Islands (UHI). The research results related to the relationship between the spatial pattern (composition/configuration) of urban GI and UHI show contradictory results. Some researchers emphasized the negative relationship between MPS and ED criteria, while other researchers found positive results in these criteria. Based on this, this study was conducted in the metropolis of Tehran, which is located in the center of Iran and has u… Show more
