The potential of blue-Green infrastructure as a climate change adaptation strategy: a systematic literature review
2021
Blue-Green Systems
Among BGI, the studies on blue- and blue-green roofs focused on one benefit at a time (i.e. thermal or hydrologic performance) and did not consider promoting multiple benefits simultaneously. ...
Compared with typical Green Infrastructure (GI), and from a design perspective, many crucial questions on BGI performance, particularly on smaller urban scales, remain unanswered. ...
Blue-Green Infrastructure (BGI) is a collective term used when blue and green applications are integrated to mitigate urbanization and adapt to climate change by providing multiple benefits for urban areas ...
