The Urban Heat Island Effect in Singapore
2007Buildings can influence climate. The impact is limited for an isolated building but magnifying tremendously for a city. According to Bridgman et al. (1995, p. 15), buildings influence the urban climate in five major ways: by replacing vegetated area, presenting blocky and angular buildings, releasing artificial heat, disposing rainfall rapidly, and ...

Mitigation of urban heat island effect and greenroofs
Indoor and Built Environment, 2013The anthropogenic developments have been causing a warming phenomenon of city centres called urban heat islands (UHI). The effect is made worse by the urban canopy characteristics of concrete, façade glazing and asphalt surfaces of building and road structures.

The Urban Heat Island Effect at Fairbanks, Alaska
Theoretical and Applied Climatology, 1999Summary Using climatic data from Fairbanks and rurally situated Eielson Air Force Base in Interior Alaska, the growth of the Fairbanks heat island was studied for the time period 1949‐ 1997. The climate records were examined to distinguish between a general warming trend and the changes due to an increasing heat island effect.
