Abstract

Urban planning, architecture and landscape are the three major parts of human habitation environment. The preceding parts have analyzed the scale characteristics of urban thermal environment. This section elaborates 35 specific thermal environment optimization measures in detail from three scales, i.e. urban planning, architecture and landscape, as shown in Table 5.1. Roman codes represent different categories, and numbers represent specific measures of each category. In addition, the difficulty in implementing similar measures should be simply evaluated. The numbers represent the difficulty level. The larger the number, the more difficult will be.
