街区尺度屋顶绿化热效应及其与城市形态结构之间的关系

研究探讨大面积屋顶绿化如何改善城市冠层内部三维空间的热环境,改善效果与城市形态结构之间存在的关系。基于三维小气候模型ENVI-met 4.2,开展街区尺度屋顶绿化热效应研究。在南京市选择具有不同形态结构特征的8个典型样区,每个样区设置2种朝向(街道与主导风向平行或相交)、3种屋顶绿化情景(传统光屋顶、简易型绿化、复合型绿化),共对48种情景进行了微气候模拟与分析。结果表明,街区尺度屋顶绿化产生的"冷岛"可从屋面扩散到地面空间,缓解城市冠层热岛效应。白天14:00时,8个样区屋顶1.5 m高处的降温强度最高可达0.64℃,样区平均降温强度最大值为0.44℃;地面1.5 m高处的降温最大值为0.55℃,样区平均降温强度最大值为0.25℃。建筑高度、高宽比、容积率与屋面、地面降温强度之间均存在显著负相关关系;建筑密度与屋面降温强度显著正相关,但与地面降温强度之间无显著相关性。总的来说,紧凑低层建筑区和开敞低层建筑区实施屋顶绿化后产生的降温效应明显高于紧凑和开敞高层建筑区;建筑高度和密度相同时,街道走向与主导风向呈45°夹角比与主导风向平行具有更高的降温强度。研究结果能够促进对亚热带城市地区建筑-植被-大气相互关系的深入认识,并为屋顶绿化实践提供指导。

顾及屋顶绿化的城市三维生态网络构建——以南京市中心城区为例

屋顶绿化作为一种新型绿色基础设施与基于自然的解决方案,已成为提升城市生态韧性与维持生物多样性的重要生态路径。然而,目前城市生态网络研究多关注二维的地面生态空间,而顾及屋顶绿化的三维生态网络构建研究尚不多见。以南京市中心城区为例,基于LiDAR、高分辨率遥感及建筑属性等多源数据,采用多因子叠置与电路理论等方法,构建了顾及屋顶绿化的城市三维生态网络整合分析框架：即采用多因子叠置方法,从建筑高度、屋面坡度、建筑年代、历史文化属性四个方面分析了屋顶绿化建设的适宜性;其次,结合建筑与植被三维结构特征数据,采用电路理论构建了有无屋顶绿化两种情景下的生态网络;最后,通过比较生态廊道数量、长度、平均阻力等指标分析了屋顶绿化对城市三维生态网络结果的潜在影响。研究结果表明：1）研究区有46.59%的屋顶适宜进行绿化,表明屋顶绿化具有很大的发展潜力。2）顾及屋顶绿化的生态廊道数量由205条增加到209条,生态网络总长度增加,单位长度阻力值减小,表明屋顶绿化能够显著提高城市生态空间的景观连通性、增加生态廊道密度,为高流动性生物提供重要的栖息地和垫脚石。3）屋顶绿化对城市生态网络优化的作用存在显著的空间差异,在城市中心区的优化作用最大,工业区次之,在生态良好片区优化作用较小。研究结果可为实现城市高密度区域地面生态空间与屋顶绿化空间的整合分析与统筹规划提供决策参考。     

Green roof performance towards management of runoff water quantity and quality: A review

This review paper addresses the role of green roofs in urban drainage considering both management of water quantity and quality. Results from investigation of full scale installations as well as from laboratory models are reviewed. The following factors affecting runoff dynamics from green roofs are discussed: type of green roof and its geometrical properties (slope); soil moisture characteristics; season, weather and rainfall characteristics; age of green roof; vegetation. Design parameters as suggested by different authors are also reviewed. Factors which affect influence of a green roof on runoff water quality are discussed in general terms followed by the review of data regarding concentrations of phosphorus, nitrogen, and heavy metals in green roof runoff, its’ pH, and first flush effect. Linking among fertilization, runoff pollution and vegetation development is given a particular focus. The review indicates clearly that there is a need for more research into a green roof performance in an urban environment. The differences measured by few existing studies between the early years performance of green roofs and the later years indicate a need for long term monitoring of green roofs.

亚热带季风区城市典型绿化屋顶的径流削减效应

屋顶绿化能够削减暴雨径流,降低城市内涝发生频率,促进可持续雨洪管理。针对亚热带季风气候区典型绿化屋顶的全年径流削减效应,以南京为研究区,以简易型、花园型两类绿化屋顶为研究对象,基于1年现场观测数据及水量平衡方程,分析屋顶雨水的滞蓄、蒸发与径流量随季节变化规律及其关键影响因子,采用SCS-CN模型计算绿化屋面的径流曲线数(CN),并估算城市尺度大面积屋顶绿化的暴雨径流削减效果。结果显示,简易型、花园型绿化屋顶全年径流削减率分别为42%和60.7%;径流削减效应的四季排序为春季冬季秋季夏季,平均径流削减率依次为78.6%、47.5%、33.2%、32.9%(简易型)及98%、84.3%、49.5%、48.1%(花园型);土壤基质层对雨水截留起主导作用,分别占径流削减总量的52%和62%;雨量和雨强是影响径流削减效应的关键因子,与径流削减率均呈显著负相关关系(P0.01),初始土壤湿度与简易型绿化屋顶的径流削减率呈显著负相关(0.01P0.05),但与花园型的径流削减率无显著相关性;基于全年77次降雨事件的降雨量-径流量数据测算得到简易型和花园型绿化屋顶的CN值分别为92和88;若南京主城区所有建筑屋顶面积的60%实施两类绿化,则其全年径流量可分别削减2.8×10~7 m~3和4.2×10~7 m~3。以上研究结果可为城市雨洪管理和海绵城市建设提供科学依据。

Performance of dryland and wetland plant species on extensive green roofs

Background and Aims

Green roofs are constructed ecosystems where plants perform valuable services, ameliorating the urban environment through roof temperature reductions and stormwater interception. Plant species differ in functional characteristics that alter ecosystem properties. Plant performance research on extensive green roofs has so far indicated that species adapted to dry conditions perform optimally. However, in moist, humid climates, species typical of wetter soils might have advantages over dryland species. In this study, survival, growth and the performance of thermal and stormwater capture functions of three pairs of dryland and wetland plant species were quantified using an extensive modular green roof system.

Methods

Seedlings of all six species were germinated in a greenhouse and planted into green roof modules with 6 cm of growing medium. There were 34 treatments consisting of each species in monoculture and all combinations of wet- and dryland species in a randomized block design. Performance measures were survival, vegetation cover and roof surface temperature recorded for each module over two growing seasons, water loss (an estimate of evapotranspiration) in 2007, and albedo and water capture in 2008.

Key Results

Over two seasons, dryland plants performed better than wetland plants, and increasing the number of dryland species in mixtures tended to improve functioning, although there was no clear effect of species or habitat group diversity. All species had survival rates >75 % after the first winter; however, dryland species had much greater cover, an important indicator of green roof performance. Sibbaldiopsis tridentata was the top performing species in monoculture, and was included in the best treatments.

Conclusions

Although dryland species outperformed wetland species, planting extensive green roofs with both groups decreased performance only slightly, while increasing diversity and possibly habitat value. This study provides further evidence that plant composition and diversity can influence green roof functions.     

Runoff water quality from intensive and extensive vegetated roofs

Vegetated roofs are becoming a trend in urban design, among others as a tool for city greening, mitigating urban heat island effect, and lowering urban storm runoff. Additionally, pollutant removal within vegetated roofs is often expected; however, it is commonly not a design feature. This study investigated influence on runoff water quality from two full-scale vegetated roofs (an intensive from Japan and an extensive from Sweden). Results show that both extensive and intensive vegetated roofs are a sink of nitrate nitrogen and ammonium nitrogen with similar performance. The intensive vegetated roof is also a sink of total nitrogen in contrast to the extensive roof. Phosphorus release is observed from the extensive vegetated roof but not from the intensive vegetated roof; release of dissolved organic carbon and potassium is observed from both roofs. The vegetated roofs, if not retaining the metal pollutants, were generally not a significant source. The increase of average pH during rainwater passage through the intensive vegetated roof indicated rapid neutralization of the acid depositions.     

城市区域绿色屋顶普及对水量水质的影响

绿色屋顶是城市降雨径流管理的主要措施之一,为了解绿色屋顶普及对城市流域降雨径流量和径流水质的影响,本文以重庆大学虎溪流域为研究载体,评估了绿色屋顶规模化应用与流域降雨产流和径流水质的响应关系.结果表明： 在城市流域进行屋面绿化有助于消减降雨径流以及产污负荷,且屋顶绿化规模和空间分布情景影响降雨径流水质.在屋顶占城市区域总面积的比例为25%、降雨持续时间15 min、降雨强度14.8 mm·h^-1的条件下,当区域内屋顶全部绿化时,峰值降雨径流降低5.3%,降雨径流总量降低31%;总悬浮物（TSS）、总磷（TP）、总氮（TN）的污染负荷分别降低40.0%、31.6%、29.8%,峰值浓度分别降低21.0%、16.0%、-12.2%,平均浓度分别降低13.1%、0.9%、-1.7%;随屋顶绿化率的增加,TSS、TP浓度消减率有所提高,而TN浓度消减率则呈降低趋势,靠近流域总出水口进行屋面绿化,更有利于径流水质的改善.     

Digging the New York City Skyline: Soil Fungal Communities in Green Roofs and City Parks

In urban environments, green roofs provide a number of benefits, including decreased urban heat island effects and reduced energy costs for buildings. However, little research has been done on the non-plant biota associated with green roofs, which likely affect their functionality. For the current study, we evaluated whether or not green roofs planted with two native plant communities in New York City functioned as habitats for soil fungal communities, and compared fungal communities in green roof growing media to soil microbial composition in five city parks, including Central Park and the High Line. Ten replicate roofs were sampled one year after planting; three of these roofs were more intensively sampled and compared to nearby city parks. Using Illumina sequencing of the fungal ITS region we found that green roofs supported a diverse fungal community, with numerous taxa belonging to fungal groups capable of surviving in disturbed and polluted habitats. Across roofs, there was significant biogeographical clustering of fungal communities, indicating that community assembly of roof microbes across the greater New York City area is locally variable. Green roof fungal communities were compositionally distinct from city parks and only 54% of the green roof taxa were also found in the park soils. Phospholipid fatty acid analysis revealed that park soils had greater microbial biomass and higher bacterial to fungal ratios than green roof substrates. City park soils were also more enriched with heavy metals, had lower pH, and lower quantities of total bases (Ca, K, and Mg) compared to green roof substrates. While fungal communities were compositionally distinct across green roofs, they did not differentiate by plant community. Together, these results suggest that fungi living in the growing medium of green roofs may be an underestimated component of these biotic systems functioning to support some of the valued ecological services of green roofs.
