Modeling transpiration and leaf temperature of urban trees–A case study evaluating the microclimate model ENVI-met against measurement data

open access: yes, 2018
Increasing vegetation cover in cities is a key approach to mitigating urban heat excess. However, both the effect of vegetation on microclimate and the plants’ vitality need to be assessed to support and quantify the effects of such strategies.

A study on the coupled effects of climate and built environment elements at urban block scale——A case study of Fengtai district in Beijing

open access: yesJournal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering
In recent years, rapid city development has significantly impacted the microclimate environments in urban blocks. Many studies have shown that varied built-up environmental factors lead to corresponding degrees of influence on microclimate.

Evaluation of Sustainable Urban Design With a Focus on Spatial Organization and Climatic Analysis

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The urban heat island (UHI) effect increases with the growth of cities and population. This situation triggers global climate change, and cities are negatively affected by this situation. In this study, five provinces (Antalya, Gaziantep, Bursa, Kayseri, and Erzurum) located in different climate zones in Turkey were selected as samples ...

The Synergistic Relationship between Urban Building Energy Performance, Microclimate, and Urban Elements [PDF]

open access: yesPort Said Engineering Research Journal
In recent years, the accuracy of assessing the energy performance of buildings in cities has relied not only on building attributes but also on urban elements (block form, urban canyon, vegetation, blue spaces {refers to water features}, and pavement ...

‘Using anuran community diversity and Pseudacris crucifer to predict landscape quality across a land use gradient'

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
As human‐modified landscape and climate changes proliferate, maintaining biodiversity and understanding the function and quality of available habitat is imperative. As anurans (frogs/toads) such as Pseudacris crucifer, can be an indicator species of habitat quality and ecosystem productivity, studying the anuran community in a mixed‐land use region ...
