Green Roof Ecosystems: Summary and Synthesis.This book provides an up-to-date coverage of green (vegetated) roof research, design, and management from an ecosystem perspective. It reviews, explains, and poses questions about monitoring, substrate, living components, and the abiotic, biotic, and cultural aspects connecting green roofs to the fields of community, landscape, and urban ecology. The work contains examples of green roof venues that demonstrate the focus, level of detail, and techniques needed to understand the structure, function, and impact of these novel ecosystems. Representing a seminal compilation of research and technical knowledge about green roof ecology and how functional attributes can be enhanced, it delves to explore the next wave of evolution in green technology and defines potential paths for technological advancement and research.Ecological Studies, Analysis and Synthesis,2196-971X ;223Urban ecology (Biology)Landscape ecologyEcosystemsLandscape architectureRegional planningUrban planningUrban Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19160Landscape Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19058Ecosystemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L1904XLandscape Architecturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/K16003Landscape/Regional and Urban Planninghttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15000Urban ecology (Biology).Landscape ecology.Ecosystems.Landscape architecture.Regional planning.Urban planning.Urban Ecology.Landscape Ecology.Ecosystems.Landscape Architecture.Landscape/Regional and Urban Planning.635.9671Sutton Richard Kedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910298450803321Green Roof Ecosystems2523499UNINA
