Measures primarily focused on heat reduction

Measures primarily focused on heat reduction: cooling through greenery

Effects of adaptation measures on water quality
Adaptation measure	Positive effects	Potential negative effects
Vertical vegetation Planting trees Tree-lined avenues Urban forests Drought-tolerant trees	Decrease in water temperature (limited effect) Increased leaf fall Reduced incidence of sunlight Fewer sewer overflows (urban forest)	Continuous fertilisation More dog poo runoff

Measures primarily focused on heat reduction: cooling through water

Effects of adaptation measures on water quality
Adaptation measure	Positive effects	Potential negative effects
Fountain Water wall	Decrease in water temperature (limited effect) Oxygen (from fountains)	Pathogens (from spray)

Measures primarily focused on heat reduction: cooling through cool, high albedo materials

Effects of adaptation measures on water quality
Adaptation measure	Positive effects	Potential negative effects
Cooling through cool, high albedo materials	Decrease in water temperature (limited effect)	More paved surfaces

Measures primarily focused on heat reduction: cooling through shade

Effects of adaptation measures on water quality
Adaptation measure	Positive effects	Potential negative effects
Tree Pergola Shade cloth Sunshade	Decrease in water temperature (limited effect)	With shade provided by greenery: continuous fertilisation, in some cases more dog poo runoff
