Prof. Daniel Katz, integrative plant science, has conducted extensive research on how to mitigate extreme heat in urban environments with trees.
In a recent study published in “Science of the Total Environment,” scientists at Cornell’s Lab of Ornithology and Zhejiang University found that the surface urban heat island effect had implications on bird diversity in China, causing them to migrate from urban to suburban areas in the 336 Chinese cities studied.
