A statistical approach for estimating mean maximum urban temperature excess.
, 2003 Munkánkban a városi hősziget (UHI) maximális napi kifejlődését vizsgáltuk Szegeden, a beépítettségi paraméterek függvényében. A hőmérsékleti adatok valamint a beépítettségi arány, a vízfelszín-arány, az égbolt láthatósági index és az épületmagasság ...

Geocarto International, 2009 Among the most modified environments on the Earth's surfaces are the places where humans have congregated and built cities. Over 60% of the world's population now resides in urban centres. Because of their densely settled conditions, urban areas are generally warmer than their surrounding rural environments, resulting in what are referred to as urban ...
