Enhancing Climate-Driven Urban Tree Cooling with Targeted Nonclimatic Interventions

Urban trees play a pivotal role in mitigating heat, yet the global determinants and patterns of their cooling efficiency (CE) remain elusive. Here, we quantify the diel CE of 229 cities across four climatic zones and employ a machine-learning model to assess the influence of variables on CE. We foun...
