It discusses the concept of resilience in architecture, discussing resilient socio-ecological systems in the Arab Region and using urban agriculture practices for designing resilient spaces. The book addresses sustainable building materials within the contexts of indoor spaces, climate change, and economic viability. It also addresses waste management and the concept of zero waste. The book highlights sustainable water management systems in buildings and cities, in addition to learned lessons from indigenous water management methods. It focuses on urban greening using haloculture for combating global warming effects and discusses the impact of green roofs as a type of urban greening in improving the thermal performance of buildings. The book delves into heat wave hazards and geospatial analysis in urban settings, using cyber-physical systems in smart cities and carbon-neutral urban developments. The book is useful to researchers, professionals, practitioners, post-graduates, and undergraduates who are interested in the field of environmental architecture engineering. 410 0$aUrban Sustainability,$x2731-6491 606 $aSustainability 606 $aSustainable architecture 606 $aEnvironmental geography 606 $aSustainability 606 $aSustainable Architecture/Green Buildings 606 $aIntegrated Geography 615 0$aSustainability. 615 0$aSustainable architecture. 615 0$aEnvironmental geography. 615 14$aSustainability. 615 24$aSustainable Architecture/Green Buildings. 615 24$aIntegrated Geography. 676 $a304.2 700 $aElZein$b Zeina$01749279 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911040917103321 996 $aRecent Approaches of Sustainable Architecture in Arid and Semi-Arid Cities$94456152 997 $aUNINA
