摘要
不同地区的气候条件,如季节性降雨和潜在蒸发率,可能强烈改变浅层绿色屋顶的储水性能。本研究评估了福建厦门湿旱两季的绿色屋顶储水性能,旨在为后期绿色屋顶植被选择提供基础条件。试验设计评估三组屋顶构造(传统防渗设计屋顶、仅有基质设计的屋顶和典型的浅层绿色屋顶设计(包括植被))的在降雨时期的径流情况,监测期长达一年。在冬季降雨时,屋顶上的植被对雨水保留没有显著影响,仅含基质的屋顶和植被屋顶对雨水径流量减少与传统防渗屋顶几乎一致。相反,在夏季植被屋顶比仅含基质屋顶能显著地保留更多降雨,这种效果的显著程度取决于降雨量的大小,此外,这两种屋顶的持水量明显夏季高于冬季。对于仅含基质屋顶和植被屋顶来说,额外的灌溉能显著降低其持水量,但这种情况只存在于旱季特大降雨时期。因此,福建等湿润地带对绿色屋顶的储水性能有挑战性。为了优化绿色屋顶带来的持水好处,设计师应该根据区域特征来设计,包括植被和基质的选择。
