The UCL Urban Ecohydrology Lab investigates the processes, scales and feedbacks linking the form and functioning of cities to their eco-hydro-climatic conditions.
About
Green urbanism, eco-cities and innovative green infrastructures are being promoted and adopted worldwide to improve urban wellbeing and achieve sustainable development goals. However, all these efforts are often guided by aesthetic, conceptual, and qualitative principles rather than a quantitative understanding of the underlining biophysical processes, scales and feedbacks. The UCL Urban Ecohydrology Lab aims to combine concepts of hydrology, ecology, meteorology, urban planning, public health and complexity science to better understand the interactions between human and natural systems and guide the design of greener, more sustainable and inclusive cities.
