Yes there is. Because if it is in the grass it will soak into the soil. :)
Pavement will heat up faster than grass on a hot day because it has a lower albedo, meaning it absorbs more solar energy. Grass has a higher albedo and also benefits from transpiration, which helps to cool the surface.
Dry pavement creates more friction than ice pavement because when surfaces are dry, there is more contact between the tires and the road, leading to increased friction. On the other hand, ice has a low coefficient of friction, causing tires to slip more easily since there is less traction between the ice and the tires.
The concrete or asphalt of the parking lot reflects the heat much more than the green grass. The color of the grass helps and also the moisture in the ground/ grass will keep the temperature cooler.
It is called runoff
Soil has a lower albedo (reflectivity) than grass, so it absorbs more solar radiation. This is because soil is typically darker in color and has a rougher surface compared to the smoother and lighter surface of grass. The absorbed solar radiation heats up the soil more compared to grass.
Pavement will heat up faster than grass on a hot day because pavement absorbs and retains heat more effectively than grass. Grass tends to have a higher albedo, meaning it reflects more sunlight and absorbs less heat compared to pavement.
Pavement is smoother and harder than grass, providing a rougher surface for tires to grip onto, thus creating more friction. Grass has a softer and uneven surface, resulting in less traction and lower friction compared to pavement.

Well... An icy pavement doesn't have a lot of friction. Unless you have special shoes used for walking on ice that will give you better grip. Grass has a ton more friction than ice. But if you wanted to get even better grip, use cleats.

Grass and shrubs reduce surface erosion by protecting soil from wind, rain and runoff. The roots of the plants also decrease erosion because a root ball has more stability than loose soil.
Ice is seriously more slippy.
Grass requires more rain than shrub as grass grows fast. It requires the nutrients more than a shrub.
On wet pavement, the presence of water reduces the friction between the tires and the road surface, making it more slippery. This is because the force needed to overcome static friction (needed to start moving) is less than the force needed to overcome sliding friction (needed to maintain motion). As a result, it is easier for a vehicle to slide or skid on wet pavement compared to dry pavement.
i know It's easier to walk on the pavement than to walk in the mud.
Yes, Portland cement concrete pavement is often more economical in the long term than is asphalt concrete pavement. The asphalt concrete can be quite a bit faster to lay down and open to traffic, though.
