Utilizing WUDAPT LCZ Data for Land Use Representation in Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Models

Entropie
Local Climate Zones (LCZs) classify urban areas based on their morphology and thermal properties. Using the WUDAPT Level 0 methodology, this study develops an LCZs map for Lyon by leveraging satellite imagery and open-source tools.

GIS-based revision of a WUDAPT Local Climate Zones map of Bern, Switzerland [PDF]

City and Environment Interactions, 2023
Urban areas are particularly affected by heatwaves through the intensification of heat stress by the urban heat island effect. For effective climate change adaptation, information about microscale surface cover, structures, and human activity in cities ...

WUDAPT: An Urban Weather, Climate, and Environmental Modeling Infrastructure for the Anthropocene [PDF]

Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2018
AbstractThe World Urban Database and Access Portal Tools (WUDAPT) is an international community-based initiative to acquire and disseminate climate relevant data on the physical geographies of cities for modeling and analysis purposes. The current lacuna of globally consistent information on cities is a major impediment to urban climate science toward ...
