Relationships between the properties of an urban street canyon and its radiant environment: Introduction of appropriate urban heat island mitigation technologies

► The key property of an urban street canyon is expressed by its aspect ratio W/H. ► The top priority area of heat island mitigation measures is the building roofs with large roof areas. ► The other high-priority areas are smaller roofs and roads for which W/H is greater than 1.5. ► The lowest-prior...
