Abstract This study focuses on the period from June 26 to 29, 2023, when record‐breaking Canadian wildfires severely impacted air quality in the Midwest United States. Using the Weather Research and Forecasting Model with Chemistry (WRF‐Chem) and four biomass‐burning data sets (Fire Inventory from NCAR version 1, Fire Inventory from NCAR version 2.5 ...

Leveraging Crowdsourced Data for Extreme Heat Monitoring
Proposed procedure to improve the spatiotemporal resolution of urban temperature monitoring using Crowdsourced weather stations. ABSTRACT The combined effects of urban microclimate heterogeneity and climate change exacerbate the disproportionate impact of heatwaves on urban areas, a trend expected to intensify.

Performance Evaluation of Built Environment in Local Climate Zones
The thermal performance of a building is significantly influenced by the climate around it. It is observed that the microclimate of an urban area is notably different from that of the surrounding regions.

Development of LCZ mapping method combining GIS with machine learning [PDF]
Local Climate Zones (LCZ) have been used worldwide in the field of urban climate. In most previous studies, LCZ maps—zoning maps for LCZ categories—were generated using the WUDAPT Level 0 method with satellite images and machine learning techniques.

Increasing Vulnerability of Urban Climate to Recent Climate Change
Box‐plots (median, upper and lower quartile, maximum, minimum and outliers) of seasonal (DJF, MAM, JJA, SON) hourly temperature differences between the urban Prague–Karlov and rural Doksany stations in the 2003–2023 period. ABSTRACT Recent global warming has intensified the urban heat island (UHI) effect and related temperature impacts in cities.

Attribution of local climate zones using a multitemporal land use/land cover classification scheme [PDF]
Worldwide, the number of people living in an urban environment exceeds the rural population with increasing tendency. Especially in relation to global climate change, cities play a major role considering the impacts of extreme heat waves on the ...

Identificação de 'Local climate zones' (LCZ's) no concelho do Porto
Neste trabalho, propomo-nos a identificar as local climate zones (LCZs) no concelho do Porto e a testar a sua sensibilidade às variações intraurbanas do risco para a saúde dos seres humanos durante episódios extremos de temperatura. Para tal, começamos por identificar as LCZs seguindo a metodologia proposta na plataforma WUDAPT.
