Un îlot de fraîcheur urbain (IFU) est défini par un périmètre urbain dont l'action rafraîchissante permet d'éviter ou de contrer directement ou indirectement les effets des îlots de chaleur. L'existence d'un îlot de fraîcheur découle directement de [...] la présence de végétation qui contribue, par l'ombrage et/ou l'évapotranspiration, à rafraîchir l'air [et par] l'utilisation de matériaux généralement pâles, donc présentant un albédo élevé, lesquels contribuent à réfléchir la chaleur ambiante. 6, record 1, French, - %C3%AElot%20de%20fra%C3%AEcheur%20urbain
