A combined Remote Sensing and GIS-based method for Local Climate Zone mapping using PRISMA and Sentinel-2 imagery

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
In the last decade, several methods have been developed for Local Climate Zone (LCZ) mapping, encompassing Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) −based procedures.

Multi-temporal LCZ maps for Canadian functional urban areas

, 2020
This study explores the multi-temporal Local Climate Zone mapping of large functional urban areas in Canada (Calgary, Edmonton, Halifax, Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver and Winnipeg), for seven census years between 1986-2016. While this has been done before by a few others, none of these studies go back that far in time, nor apply the approach on as many ...

Revealing the Impact of Urban Morphology Evolution on the Urban Heat Island Effect in the Main Urban Area of Guangzhou: Insights from Local Climate Zones

Remote Sensing
Local Climate Zones (LCZs) provide a critical framework for analyzing how urban morphology influences the surface urban heat island (SUHI) effect. However, the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of the driving mechanisms of urban morphology in SUHI within LCZs

Evaluation of snow conditions modelling for various LCZ types

Urban Climate
Snow conditions in cities have received little attention, while they were extensively studied on natural surfaces with several model intercomparison projects. This short article explores how improvements in snow parameterisations lead to a better simulation of the energy balance for various LCZ types.

How to classify microclimates more validly and finely? A novel method for mapping local climate zone (LCZ) on micro-scales

Global climate change and rapid urbanization are driving microclimate variations in urban areas, intensifying the formation of urban heat islands (UHIs) vulnerable to extreme weather.
