Het Knowledge Mile Park (KMP), momenteel de drukste verkeersader van Amsterdam, wordt de komende jaren uitgebreid vergroend. Op diverse locaties langs de KMP werd steekproefsgewijs hittemetingen uitgevoerd om hittestress op te sporen, verkoelingscapaciteit van het aanwezige groen te meten en het thermisch …

Habitat fragmentation caused by urbanization and climate change are important drivers of biodiversity decline and ecosystem degradation (McKinney, 2002). Governmental inaction results in cascade effects, such as the extinction of species and the weakening of ecosystem services that citizens depend on. …

In this research there was looked at the connection between the Zeta potential and the pressure sensitivity of a chloroprene dispersion in order to gain insight in dispersion stability. This was done by varying the pH and ionic strength of the chloroprene dispersion. There was also looked at whether …

Stedelijke natuurversterking is bij uitstek een thema dat door de schalen heen moet worden bekeken. Van pocket park en gevelbekleding tot stedelijke groenstructuur, de biodiversiteit komt het beste tot bloei door samenhang.

Western cities are rapidly densifying, and new building typologies are being invented to mitigate high-rise and balance residential, commercial and recreational functions. This vertical urbanization requires rethinking the traditional design of public space to promote citizens’ well-being. While the …

Built environments are increasingly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. Most European towns and cities have developed horizontally over time but are currently in the process of further densification. High-rise developments are being built within city boundaries at an unprecedented rate to accommodate …
