| Abstract | There has been a rise in ambient temperature, known as the Urban Heat Island effect, due to the continued replacement of natural surfaces, increases of buildings, paved surfaces and construction materials used in urban areas. There are direct relationships between the level of comfort on the outdoor environment, energy, and urban heat islands. Prior studies focused on aspects such as reflective pavements, cool pavements, and albedo of reflective pavements. However, there is a paucity of research on evaporative paved surfaces for hot humid environs, especially in countries with tropical rainforests. The evaporative pavements then called permeable pavements, are ideal for environs that receive adequate rainfall. The study seeks to close the gap via a desk literature review survey by exploring the compatibility of systems with evaporative pavements in an attempt to alleviate the impacts of Urban Heat Island at the micro-level. |
