“…Simultaneously, the process of transpiration from the trees releases water vapour, cooling the surrounding air and further contributing to the cooling of the green roof. Investigating the energy-saving potential of intensive green roofs with canopy trees can lead to valuable insights for urban planners, architects, and building owners [54]. Understanding the specific benefits and challenges associated with such green roof designs can inform decisions about implementing green infrastructure in urban areas and contribute to more sustainable and eco-friendly building practices.…”

“…It is also important to consider both ET and infiltration concurrently in the design of green roofs to improve their hydrological performance [123]. Finally, adding artificial shading or trees on green roofs, specifically in hot climates, may reduce the exposure of low canopy vegetation to the sun's rays, which can help reduce the green roof's surface temperature and enhance water balance efficiency [72,83,124,125]. Figure 8 shows the influence of different factors on ET that designers must consider in the green roof design process.…”

“…The hazard of a lightning strike to a building structure can result in damage to the structure and contents of the building, failure of electronic systems and damage either inside or near the building structure. The effects of structural damage and failure can extend to the area close to the building structure or affect the environment around the building structure (Abuseif et al, 2023;Freddi et al, 2021;Voulpiotis et al, 2021). Hazards to electric power services can result in damage to the electric power system itself and failure of electronic equipment connected to the electric power system (Li et al, 2024).…”
