Sustainable Built Environments: From Microclimates to Megacities: Environment

Bol

This textbook, Sustainable Built Environments: Climate-Smart Strategies from Microclimates to Megacities, aims to provide a comprehensive resource for students, researchers, and practitioners in architecture, urban planning, civil and environmental engineering, and related disciplines. It bridges the gap between foundational knowledge of climate, microclimate, natural cycles, and environmental systems with practical approaches for designing resilient and sustainable urban landscapes.Chapters 1 through 12 cover a wide spectrum of topics: from understanding climate and microclimate, natural cycles of water, carbon, and energy, to advanced topics in sustainable high-rise construction, passive energy systems, water and waste management, and innovations in smart city design. Each chapter is structured to offer both theoretical insights and practical applications, enriched with tables, figure placeholders, graphs, and case studies from global research.
