Heat Island Effect in Urban Areas
RevCAD Journal of Geodesy and CadastreIn densely built urban environments, microclimate characteristics are critically important in terms of comfort and health conditions for residents (thermal comfort/thermal stress)[1], but also in relation to environmental performance and, implicitly, the energy performance of urban areas. Given the context of climate change, the increasing frequency of

The urban heat island : causes and effects
, 2016 The Urban Heat Island Effect has become one of the world’s leading urban environmental issues of this century. Urbanization has increased concerns about the UHIE, especially in terms of human health and a healthy functioning urban environment. The UHIE results in significant and sometimes dramatic increase in air temperature change between the urban ...
