Exploring open and green space characteristics for climate change adaptation: a focus on energy consumption

Starting from the relationship between urban planning and mobility management, TeMA has gradually expanded the view of the covered topics, always remaining in the groove of rigorous scientific in-depth analysis. This section of the Journal, Review Notes, is the expression of continuously updating emerging topics concerning relationships between urban planning, mobility, and environment, through a collection of short scientific papers written by young researchers. The Review Notes are made of five parts. Each section examines a specific aspect of the broader information storage within the main interests of TeMA Journal. In particular, the Urban planning literature review section presents recent books and journals on selected topics and issues within the global scientific panorama. For the third issue of TeMA Journal volume no. 18, this section provides a comprehensive overview of the challenges and solutions related to the role of open and green spaces in climate change adaptation, with particular attention to the urban energy consumption. Using a variety of scientific sources and practical resources, this contribution aims to identify the key characteristics of these spaces that can influence adaptation strategies, examining the solutions proposed in the scientific literature, specifically in books, journals, and reports.
