Introduction to the Green Roof Research
Green roof is one of the best answers to the global climate change problems in urban areas with the possibility to reduce urban heat islands. It can reduce the temperature maximum and daily variance of temperatures, which has the positive effect on durability of the waterproof membrane. Retention of the rainwater enables the possibility for evapotranspiration. In this paper, the experimental measurement of various extensive green roof fragments is described with their possibilities and limitations. Temperature and water retention regime of the fragments are monitored as well. Temperature measurement results during autumn, winter and spring days are stated. The result is that daily temperature variance is reduced by use of green roof.
