Hi: Tx for reply, I guess my instant reaction was that it would take far more total area than just roof tops to accomplish anything that it would likely be futile. It appears to me that all of the re-radiated "Waste" Heat from UHI still contributes to Global (atmospheric warming) with much of it being re-radiated back to us. That, unless there are specific sub-bands within the infra-red band that would re-radiate most energy out into space without intercept in lower troposphere??? I'm not familiar with specific frequency bands at infra-red, having worked mostly from low L-band (1 Ghz) up through K-Band on the order of 14- 16 Ghz?? Just zero experience with infra-red stuff. I am not familiar with frequencies of re-radiation of gas molecules except for oxygen which I believe to be in the range of L-Band; 1Ghz+/-?
