Research reaching practice
Germany’s Environment Agency cites Professor Amir’s green-roof review when establishing the rationale for green roofs as a metropolitan climate-adaptation response. The DASIF report develops remote-sensing approaches for adaptation monitoring, including green roofs in major cities.
The documented contribution
CLIMATE CHANGE 50/2024 · Printed page 34; reference page 105. The review supports the indicator’s conceptual rationale. The remote-sensing algorithms and operational monitoring methods are the work of the report’s authors.
