Water quantity investigation of simulated green roofs in a tropical climate: influence of vegetation composition
Green roofs are recognized as a sustainable infrastructure to improve the environmental quality of cities. Among many benefits, green roofs reduce the rate and volume of runoff helping to improve rainwater management. This study investigated the runoff retention capacity of three pilot extensive gr...
