Weather in the City draws on current examples in demonstrating how the comfort of the urban environment can be enhanced using modern techniques and new methods. How we experience the urban climate depends on various physical and psychological factors. Landscape architect and urban designer Sanda Lenzholzer shows how basic climatic processes work in an urban environment, and how they can be influenced by spatial planning and urban design.
The book is both a reference work and a source of inspiration for all those engaged in creating a liveable city, be they clients, policymakers, professionals or students involved in urban design, landscape architecture and planning.
