PFS Studio’s Howard Rosenblat and his academic colleagues at the University of Toronto have been published in ‘Nature Cities Journal’.

As landscape architects, we often design green roofs and rain gardens to help slow, store and filter rainwater; improve air quality, reduce heat intensity, and enhance biodiversity and habitat. Green roofs and rain gardens can also enhance amenity, childcare, and urban agricultural spaces, while increasing access to nature, and expanding educational opportunities.

PFS Studio’s Howard Rosenblat and his academic colleagues at the University of Toronto have been published in ‘Nature Cities Journal’ . Their article, “Remote Sensing for Healthy Vegetation on Green Roofs” is a study of vegetation health across 1380 individual green roofs in Toronto, Ontario from 2011 to 2018. Their findings provide an analytical framework for the long-term assessment and design development of green roofs in urban environments. Congratulations Howard!
