NEW DELHI, Nov. 16, 2023 (TBINN)
How a city is laid out, called urban land pattern, may help in reducing population exposure to future weather extremes, scientists in the United States have found.
The design of urban landscape – how buildings are spread out, clustered or dispersed – and how it fits into the surrounding environment, seems to matter more than simply the size of a city, the researchers from the universities from Delaware and Wyoming have found.
Researchers investigated how changes in urban land and population will affect future populations’ exposures to weather extremes under climate conditions at the end of the 21st century.
