Thermal Footprint of the Urbanization Process: Analyzing the Heat Effects of the Urbanization Index (UI) on the Local Climate Zone (LCZ) and Land Surface Temperature (LST) over Two Decades in Seville

open access: yesLand
Urbanization is a multifaceted process characterized by changes in urban areas through various means, such as sprawl, ribbon development, or infill and compact growth. This phenomenon changes the pattern of the local climate zone (LCZ) and significantly affects the climate, vegetation dynamics, energy consumption, water resources, and public health ...

Predictive modeling the effect of Local Climate Zones (LCZ) on the urban meteorology in a tropical andean area

Modeling Earth Systems and Environment
The Weather Research & Forecasting Model (WRF, Version 4.4) was applied to simulate meteorological conditions in the city of Quito, Ecuador, located in a tropical Andean landscape. These simulations included the urban canopy into WRF, using the Building Environment Parameterization (BEP) scheme combined with Local Climate Zones (LCZ) land use ...

3D Local Climate Zone (LCZ) Modeling and Digital Twin Integration for Advanced Climate Resilience using AI

Local Climate Zones (LCZs) provide a standardized classification of urban morphology and climate interactions, yet traditional 2D representations lack spatial depth for comprehensive urban climate analysis. This research proposes an innovative approach that integrates urban remote sensing , AI-driven 3D modeling, and state-of-the-art Digital Twin ...

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

Sustainable Cities and Society
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. The local climate zone (LCZ) framework, using remote sensing (RS) and geographic information system (GIS), has advanced with the World Urban Database and Access Portal ...

Estimation of Ecosystem Services (EESs) loss due to transformation of Local Climatic Zones (LCZs) in Sriniketan-Santiniketan Planning Area (SSPA)West Bengal, India

Sustainable Cities and Society, 2019
Abstract Accessing the impact of land use/land cover dynamics on the Ecosystem Service Values (ESVs) is necessary for sustainable development at regional and global scale. Estimation of changes in Ecosystem service value (ESV) in response to local climatic zones (LCZs) are performed using GIS technique and corresponding with the global value ...

Urban Climate and Dengue Fever: Assessing Aedes aegypti Infestation across Local Climate Zones (LCZs) in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil)

In the first month of 2025, the city of Rio de Janeiro recorded 1,012 dengue fever cases, reaffirming the disease as one of the municipality's major public health challenges. Considering the close relationship between the disease vector and meteorological and climatic conditions, this study investigated the correlation between the climatic morphologies
