Heliyon, 2023 The local climate zone (LCZ) has been an important land surface classification used to differentiate urban climate between localities. The general knowledge maps of LCZ studies are needed when LCZ-related research has attracted great attention. This study integrated bibliometrics and critical review to understand the status quo and suggest future ...

The 5th International Electronic Conference on Atmospheric Sciences, 2022 LCZs refer to a classification system that exists out of 17 classes, 10 of which can be describedas urban, proposed as the new standard for characterizing and comparing urban landscapes. Thisstudy evaluates the reliability of the LCZ level 0 map obtained from WUDAPT by comparingit with a more detailed LCZ map inferred from the morphological information

Global map of Local Climate Zones
, 2022 A global 100 m spatial resolution Local Climate Zone (LCZ) map, derived from multiple earth observation datasets and expert LCZ class labels. The LCZ map is based on the LCZ typology (Stewart and Oke, 2012) that distinguish urban surfaces accounting for ...

Local Climate Zone mapping using GIS methods in Szeged
Hungarian Geographical Bulletin, 2014 Owing to anthropogenic activity, local climate develops in the area of built-up zones. The characteristics of built-up zones can be quantified by different methods. One of the methods is the Local Climate Zones (LCZ) classification system which describes

Teaser Local Climate Zone maps extracted from the global map of Local Climate Zones.
, 2022 Local Climate Zone teaser maps for the 15 largest functional urban areas stratified by urban ecoregion. The data is extracted from the global 100 m spatial resolution LCZ map, and is used to plot Figures 5, 6 and 7 of Demuzere et al. (2022a).

GIS-Based Analysis of Local Climate Zones in Denton, Texas
, 2021 This study implemented a GIS-based analysis of local climate zones (LCZ) in Denton, TX with data sets from 2009, 2011, 2015, and 2016. The LCZ scheme enables evaluation of distinct regions' thermal characteristics with greater granularity than ...

Local Climate Zone (LCZ) Map Accuracy Assessments Should Account for Land Cover Physical Characteristics that Affect the Local Thermal Environment [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2019 Local climate zone (LCZ) maps are increasingly being used to help understand and model the urban microclimate, but traditional land use/land cover map (LULC) accuracy assessment approaches do not convey the accuracy at which LCZ maps depict the local thermal environment.

Numerical Simulation with Local Climate Zones of Urban Heat Island in the Metropolitan Area of São Paulo [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de MeteorologiaThe urban heat island (UHI) is a well-known consequence of urbanization on local climate. This study investigates the UHI in the Metropolitan Area of São Paulo (MASP), focusing on urban morphology and meteorological conditions.
