Pedestrian-level Cooling

Pedestrian-Level Cooling is a microclimatic intervention strategy that specifically targets the reduction of ambient thermal stress within the human occupant zone—typically between 0.1 and 2 meters above ground—in urban environments, thereby enhancing outdoor thermal comfort for pedestrians through localized passive cooling techniques.
