Research of Planting Different Species on Cooling Effectiveness

Abstract:

Descriptive statistics and Scheffe multiple comparison analysis by all planting the average temperature difference at the 0.05 level values are significant. The temperature difference between the control as the dependent variable, more independent variables, and found that different types of solar radiation energy planting isolated cooling there are significant , the best Rhoeo spathacea down 13.7226°C,Orthosiphon aristatus down12.0540°C,followed by Cynodon spp. down 8.0591°C least significant cooling.
