Mapping Europe into local climate zones [PDF]

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2019
Cities are major drivers of environmental change at all scales and are especially at risk from the ensuing effects, which include poor air quality, flooding and heat waves. Typically, these issues are studied on a city-by-city basis owing to the spatial complexity of built landscapes, local topography and emission patterns. However, to ensure knowledge

Exploring Methods for Developing Local Climate Zones to Support Climate Research

open access: yesClimate, 2022
Meteorological and climate prediction models at the urban scale increasingly require more accurate and high-resolution data. The Local Climate Zone (LCZ) system is an initiative to standardize a classification scheme of the urban landscape, based mainly on the properties of surface structure (e.g., building, tree height, density) and surface cover ...

Variations of Urban Thermal Risk with Local Climate Zones

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2023
Due to the differences in land cover and natural surroundings within cities, residents in various regions face different thermal risks. Therefore, this study combined multi-source data to analyze the relationship between urban heat risk and local climate zones (LCZ).

Urban Thermal Characteristics of Local Climate Zones and Their Mitigation Measures across Cities in Different Climate Zones of China [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Understanding the urban thermal environment is vital for improving urban planning and strategy development when mitigating urban heat islands. However, urban thermal characteristics of local climate zones (LCZ) are different within cities and most studies lack regional perspective.
