A review of factors affecting carbon sequestration at green roofs

This paper aims to assess factors that affect carbon sequestration on green roofs.

The most current academic literature related to carbon sequestration and green roofs carbon sequestration performance was reviewed.

Factors affecting carbon sequestration were discussed and classified into the following factors: plants, physical and maintenance factors. The authors’ findings are significant because they can be used to optimize green roofs performance for carbon sequestration.

Factors affecting carbon sequestration will optimize intensive green roofs performance.
