Mapeando a morfologia urbana: aplicações do método Local Climate Zones (LCZ) em diferentes escalas do projeto

PosFAUUSP, 2023
Este artigo visa demonstrar o potencial do método de mapeamento Local Climate Zones (LCZ) aplicado a duas pesquisas urbanas com objetivos e escalas distintas. Originalmente desenvolvido para estudos de clima urbano, o método é aqui explorado em sua aplicação original e em estudos de alterações da cobertura vegetal urbana em uma Região Metropolitana e ...

MAPPING LOCAL CLIMATE ZONES WITH MULTIPLE GEODATA AND THE OPEN DATA CUBE: INSIGHTS OF DOMAIN USER REQUIREMENTS AND OUTLOOKS OF THE LCZ-ODC PROJECT

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2023
Abstract. Rapid urbanization and climate change are intensifying the urban heat island (UHI) phenomenon across cities worldwide. There is a pressing need to implement evidence-based mitigation and adaptation strategies as well as to develop tools for effectively measuring the impact of such actions on UHI patterns.

Local Climate Zone Classification Scheme Can Also Indicate Local-Scale Urban Ventilation Performance: An Evidence-Based Study

Atmosphere, 2020
Studies on urban ventilation indicate that urban ventilation performance is highly dependent on urban morphology. Some studies have linked local-scale urban ventilation performance with the local climate zone (LCZ) that is proposed for surface ...

Effects of Sky View Factor on Thermal Environment in Different Local Climate Zoning Building Scenarios—A Case Study of Beijing, China

Buildings, 2023
As an essential structural indicator of buildings, sky view factor (SVF) is one of the most critical factors affecting the urban thermal environment. However, the relationship between SVF and the thermal environment at the neighborhood scale has not been

Fragmentation Across Scales, Geography, and Climate Challenges in European Urban Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Research: A Bibliometric and Systematic Review

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT European urban climate change research lacks integration across scales, geography, and climate challenges, despite Europe's coordinated policy frameworks. Through a hybrid bibliometric and systematic review of 1528 studies (2010–2025) using Cortext Manager and PRISMA 2020 guidelines, this study maps the conceptual patterns, knowledge gaps, and

A climate‐sensitive tropical urbanism under extreme heat†

Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography, EarlyView.
Tropical urban dwellers face twin climate challenges that impinge on their quality of life: climate overheating and the urban heat island (UHI). The latter superimposed on the former to lead to high levels of thermal discomfort, carbon and energy consequences.

Seasonality of Surface Urban Heat Island in Delhi City Region Measured by Local Climate Zones and Conventional Indicators

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2019
Urbanization can change the local climate of an area, one manifestation of which is a rise in the local temperature of built-up areas, a phenomenon known as an urban heat island.
