dc.description.abstract | The city of Fargo, ND, and the surrounding area has continually grown each
year and is expected to grow in the future. With the growth is an influx in the
building of homes, businesses, and roads. This growth has caused the area to
become more of a concrete jungle opposed to the historical vegetative lake
bed, it used to be. These hard surfaces and building production have negatively
affected the energy consumption, runoff coefficient, and temperatures within
the city, all of which have the potential to rise further yet. To prevent future
and combat existing pollution and runoff, roof infrastructure will be researched
through quantitative research and case studies to see differences in city
buildings with and without roof infrastructure implemented. | en_US |
