The effects of climate change in cities, such as the occurrence of extreme high temperature events, has brought severe challenges to the health of human settlements and urban sustainability. Extreme heat events have caused several heat disasters and seriously threatened the health of urban residents, especially vulnerable people. To ameliorate these urban heat extremes, urban green has be…

The Centre for Water and Food Security at Critical Zones has the main goal to improve solutions to problems on water and food security in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, with emphasis in the management water risk at local and regional scale. The basic field and historical inventory information will be focused at spatial critical zones (headwaters, agricultural plots and specific urban are…
This proposal deals with the role of planning, urban design and building design for climate change adaptation in microscale. The aim is to quantify the impacts on urban microclimate, based on present and future climate scenarios, regarding: 1) the urban density; 2) the building envelope and other urban surfaces; 3) vegetation and its urban insertion in different forms; 4) as well as therm…

The increase in temperature and heavy rains and droughts are consequences of climate change resulting from a profound environmental imbalance. At the urban scale, the patterns of land use and occupation amplify these problems and, although vegetation is essential, as a mitigation and adaptation strategy, urban areas, for the most part, are predominantly arid, as a result of the lack and i…
This project has as object of study the thermal performance of small apartments in multifamily residential buildings (up to 50 m²), with total façades or partially glazed, built and recently launched in São Paulo. Thermal analyzes will be negotiated from computer simulations with based on current weather data and future data from Projeta - Change Projections Climate for South America Regi…
The benefits brought by vegetation are already known: it provides relevant ecosystem services since it reduces the pollution levels, it has an important role in water management, promotes and protects the biodiversity, balances the temperature and moist the air in the surroundings, besides bringing well-being to people. Green infrastructure, however, consists in interconnected green space…
The present research proposal "Ecosystem Services in urban Areas: The role of trees on climate regulation" seeks to advance on the knowledge of ecosystem services performed by trees within urban areas and to explore their possibilities of application in the process of planning, design and management of urban green areas. Initially we intend to review national and international researches…

The world is experiencing the climate emergency, which is responsible for some extreme events, such as the increase in temperature, heavy rains and droughts. At the urban scale, the suppression of urban vegetation and the increase in built density and impervious surfaces are one of the main factors for the aggravation of local climate change effects. Thus, the presence of vegetation throu…

The research subject for BEPE internship at JCU - Johannes Gutenberg-Univesität Mainz is to study the ENVI-met V.4 Preview III model to quantify the impact of vegetation in urban microclimate (effect on air temperature, surface temperature, specific humidity, direction and wind speed), under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Michael Bruse, author of the model. This study aims to achieve, among…
