Influence of Scale Effect of Canopy Projection on Understory Microclimate in Three Subtropical Urban Broad-Leaved Forests

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
The canopy is the direct receiver and receptor of external environmental variations, and affects the microclimate and energy exchange between the understory and external environment. After autumn leaf fall, the canopy structure of different forests shows

Decoupling forest characteristics and background conditions to explain urban-rural variations of multiple microclimate regulation from urban trees [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
Background Rapid urbanization in semi-arid regions necessitates greater cooling, humidifying, and shading services from urban trees, but maximizing these services requires an exact understanding of their association with forest characteristics and ...

Assessment of macroclimate and microclimate effects on outdoor thermal comfort via artificial neural network models

open access: yes, 2022
Outdoor thermal comfort is significantly affected by climate, including macroclimate, local climate, and microclimate. However, the combined impacts of macroclimate and microclimate factors are less understood in previous thermal comfort studies.

Land cover affects microclimate and temperature suitability for arbovirus transmission in an urban landscape.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2020
The emergence of mosquito-transmitted viruses poses a global threat to human health. Combining mechanistic epidemiological models based on temperature-trait relationships with climatological data is a powerful technique for environmental risk assessment.

Impact of synoptic condition on urban microclimate variation: A measurement study in a humid subtropical city during summer season

open access: yes, 2023
The urban microclimate is not only predominated by synoptic weather features but also closely related to heterogeneous characteristics of urban morphology. This study conducted an on-site field measurement campaign in Guangzhou, China from July to August

Effects of Urban Morphology on Microclimate Parameters in an Urban University Campus [PDF]

open access: yesSustainability, 2020
This study investigated the effects of urban morphology on microclimate parameters in an urban university campus in Malaysia. Outdoor air temperatures (Tout) were recorded at eight different locations inside the campus for seven days. The study used three urban morphological parameters such as green cover ratio, height-to-width (H/W) ratio, and sky ...
