Southern California Extreme Heat Research Hub
Investigating extreme heat, its impacts, and sustainable adaptation in coastal Southern California.
What drives patterns of extreme heat? Who feels the effects of extreme temperatures most strongly? How does the built environment play a role? Can vegetation help ease the impacts of heat? How do we ensure that green intervention strategies are sustainable in a region that's prone to drought?
Join us as we seek to answer these questions and more!
