Ladd KeithWe have a new paper out led by Lauren Jensen, with @SaraMeerow, Phil Berke, Erika Schmidt, & Shaylynn Trego applying the Plan Integration for Resilience Scorecard™ (PIRS™) for Heat in two Boston neighborhoods! Our study highlights the importance of considering neighborhood-level plans through approaches such as PIRS™ for Heat to better understand how well a city is planning to mitigate heat. Please reach out to me for a PDF of the paper if you're not able to access it. https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/07352166.2025.2526494 #extremeheat #urbanplanning #planintegration #heatresilience
📢 Happy to share my new JPER paper, Evaluating Urban Heat Mitigation Across Networks of Plans, with coauthors @SaraMeerow, Lauren Jensen, Shaylynn Trego, Erika Schmidt, and Philip Berke! https://doi.org/10.1177/0739456X231215780 #heatresilience #heatplanning #planintegration
I presented the Plan Integration for Resilience Scorecard™ for Heat results for the City of Tempe, Arizona with @SaraMeerow recently, where we found that heat mitigation policies are targeting the socially vulnerable areas of the city but often not the hottest areas.
