“…-Case A: present configuration of the site; -Case B: the asphalt is replaced by a concrete pavement (The Asphalt Institute, 1984;Russel and Lenz, 2013) with a higher albedo coefficient and a lower thermal capacity (Table 6); -Case C: the configuration is characterized by a roof albedo of 0.66 (Pisello, Cotana, Nicolini, & Brinchi, 2013), which is 0.31 units higher than that of the present configuration. The choice to evaluate this solution is due to the increasing interest towards cool roofs (Zinzi, Carnielo, & Federici, 2014;Pisello, Pignatta, Castaldo, & Cotana, 2014;Rosso et al, 2015;; -Case D: this configuration has a wider urban vegetation area, about 9% with respect to the present configuration. This choice derives from the study of who during their research in Toronto, Canada, examined the effects of an increase in the vegetation coverage ratio of 10% on the microclimate; -Case E: this is a combination of the three previous mitigation strategies of the Urban Heat Island (UHI) with the implementation of cool roofs, cool pavement and a wider urban vegetation area;…”
