Petros Ampatzidis

Petros Ampatzidis is a Researcher in the Department of Architecture & Civil Engineering at the University of Bath. His work focuses on leveraging blue space interventions to mitigate urban climate challenges. He holds a PhD (2023) and dual Master's degrees from Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and International Hellenic University. His research interests span urban microclimate simulation, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and building energy systems, contributing to UN Sustainable Development Goals related to climate action and sustainable cities.

Recent studies analyze blue space impacts on urban heat islands, pollution dispersion, and building energy efficiency. His work integrates CFD modelling with real-world applications, including wind dynamics in coastal cities. Collaborations involve institutions like the University of Trieste and interdisciplinary teams addressing climate resilience.

Petros has published in journals like Urban Climate and Climate, with his 2023 thesis on blue space modelling gaining significant academic attention. His research emphasizes scalable decarbonization strategies and equitable urban planning, bridging engineering and policy domains.
