The urban heat island effect and city contiguity

Computers, Environment and Urban Systems, 2015
Abstract The spatial configuration of cities can affect how urban environments alter local energy balances. Previous studies have reached the paradoxical conclusions that both sprawling and high-density urban development can amplify urban heat island intensities, which has prevented consensus on how best to mitigate the urban heat island effect via ...

Effect of the Urban Heat Island on Aerosol pH

Environmental Science & Technology, 2017
The urban heat island (UHI) is a widely observed phenomenon whereby urban environments have higher temperatures and different relative humidities than surrounding suburban and rural areas. Temperature (T) and relative humidity (RH) strongly affect the partitioning of semivolatile species found in the atmosphere, such as nitric acid, ammonia, and water.

Heat Island Effect Aggravates Mortality

Volume 4: Energy Systems Analysis, Thermodynamics and Sustainability; Combustion Science and Engineering; Nanoengineering for Energy, Parts A and B, 2011
Cases of death during heat waves are most commonly due to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, with the main contribution from the negative effect of heat on the cardiovascular system. In an attempt to control the body temperature, the body’s natural instinct is to circulate large quantities of blood to the skin.

Urban Heat Island Effects of Pavements

2022
Urban heat island effect is one of the major issues and to be addressed in order to achieve sustainability. Human population in the cities has been increasing tremendously. As a result, natural areas are turned into buildings, roads etc. Scholars from various disciplines are now focused on the causes of Urban Heat Island effect and mitigation ...

Heat island effect for Nicosia, Cyprus

Advances in Building Energy Research, 2014
Daily values of meteorological data from two stations, one rural and one urban, of Cyprus Meteorological Service for a very large period (1983–2010) have been analyzed in order to detect the existence of the heat island effect in Nicosia, Cyprus. This study examines the heat island effect by comparing the mean daily temperature of the two stations ...

Construction of a cold island network for the urban heat island effect mitigation

Science of The Total Environment
The urban heat island (UHI) effect seriously challenges sustainable urban development strategies and livability. Numerous studies have explored the UHI problem from the perspective of isolated blue and green patches, ignoring the overall function of cold island networks.
