Effects of the Different Canopy Density of Green Belts on the Temperature and Humidity in River Corridor within a Year
In order to provide scientific basis for the construction of green belts in river corridor,the effects of green belts with different canopy closure density on the temperature and humidity were analyzed by the small-scale of quantitative measurement The results showed that the green belt with different canopy closure density had effect on the decrease of temperature and increase of humidity in spring,summer and autumn; the effects of different belts on temperature and humidity were ranked as order of summer>autumn>spring. The temperature and relative humidity benefits increased with the canopy density of the green belt. The effects of different belts on temperature and humidity were related to ambient temperature. It took place in the period that was the most height temperature in one day (14:00-16:00).The green belt with internal constitution of lawn had effect on the decrease of temperature and increase of humidity in winter.The temperature and relative humidity benefits increased with the canopy density of the green belt.
