Abstract
Taking the Yangling demonstration area as the research object, this paper analyzes the local climate and combines the micro-environmental characteristics of rooftop gardens in Yangling to explore the principles of plant configuration in rooftop gardens. It selects suitable plants for rooftop gardens and investigates their ecological benefits in improving the urban heat island effect, reducing rainwater accumulation, and purifying the air, providing a reference for the construction and management of rooftop gardens in the Guanzhong region.
