Ten years of greening a wide brown land: A synthesis of Australian green roof research and roadmap forward
NSG Williams, RS Bathgate, C Farrell, KE Lee… - Urban Forestry & Urban …, 2021 - Elsevier
Australian cities have been slow to implement green roofs. This is because there are many
potential barriers to their widely acceptance as a nature based solution that can make cities …
