Numerical Studies on the Influence of Building Morphology on Urban Canopy Wind Speed
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth SystemsBuildings increase the urban surface roughness and reduce near‐surface wind speeds in the urban canopy due to the drag effect. Urban heat storage and other effects cause urban warming as well, which decreases the urban boundary layer stability and ...

Complexity and emergence in city systems: implications for urban planning [PDF]
, 2009 Cities can be regarded as the quintessential example of complexity. Insofar as we can define a hidden hand determining their morphology, this is based on the glue that stitches together the actions of individuals and organizations who build and plan the ...

3D cities and numerical weather prediction models: An overview of the methods used in the LUCID project [PDF]
, 2009 Transferring spatial data between different types of spatial models is often a much trickier process than GIS professionals would like to admit. This is further complicated if the models were generated for very different purposes and at different levels ...

Scaling and universality in the micro-structure of urban space [PDF]
, 2003 We present a broad, phenomenological picture of the distribution of the length of open space linear segments, $l$, derived from maps of 36 cities in 14 different countries.
