11 million data records10°C coolerfirst year of operation
The sensor network installed in the London Natural History Museum's Nature Discovery Garden recorded 11 million data points in its first year of operation. During the June 2026 heatwave, soil temperature in tree shade was found to be up to 10°C lower compared to asphalt areas.
The study proves with concrete data the cooling effect created by urban green spaces during extreme heat events. Researchers emphasize that afforestation and green infrastructure play a critical role in reducing the urban heat island effect.
The sensor network continuously monitors microclimate data, creating a long-term dataset that will help cities develop climate change adaptation strategies.
