Simulación microclimática de una tormenta urbana utilizando el modelo ENVI-met
El conocimiento de la geografía y de la planificación espacial es un elemento esencial para el desarrollo organizado de las ciudades y la consiguiente mitigación de problemas urbanos, como las islas de calor. En Lisboa (Portugal), los fuertes vientos otoñales que se dirigen hacia el sur o suroeste suelen causar daños, como la caída de árboles, que ...
