arbcombo -- Thursday ARB Research Seminar: Deriving Roof Albedo for Seven California Cities Using Remote Sensing
Posted: 09 Jun 2015 15:24:22
“Deriving Roof Albedo for Seven California Cities Using Remote Sensing”. “Presentation is available for downloading” George Ban-Weiss Ph.D., University of Southern California, Ronnen Levinson, Ph.D., Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and Jordan Woods, University of California, Berkeley Thursday, June 11, 2015 1:30 pm, PDT (WEBCAST) Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California Cool roofs reflect sunlight and therefore can reduce cooling energy use in buildings. Further, since roofs typically cover about 20-25% of a city, widespread deployment of cool roofs could mitigate the urban heat island effect and partially counter urban temperature increases associated with global scale climate change. The magnitude of these potential benefits for a given city depends on the increase in albedo that can be achieved using reflective roofs. Assessing this increase requires knowledge of roof albedo at the city scale, which until now has been hindered by a lack of reflectance data with sufficient spatial coverage, spatial resolution, and spectral detail.
