Impact of longer Drought Periods on Climate in Greater Vienna:appropriate Mitigation measures_KLIMA

Imp_Drop investigates for the first time the influence and interactions of vegetation dynamics on urban cooling under climate change-induced drought effects in the Vienna metropolitan area. The focus is on the combination of effects of a) seasonal optimization of evaporative cooling in the surrounding Viennese agricultural regions and green infrastructure (green roofs) within the city of Vienna and b) urban engineering measures such as local photovoltaic system effects, albedo and anthropogenic increase heat reduction.
