Método WUDAPT para la zonificación climática del Área Metropolitana de Mendoza: Análisis de zonas identificadas y su comportamiento térmico [PDF]
, 2019 El trabajo tiene por objetivo considerar la aplicabilidad del sistema de Zonas Climáticas Locales -LCZ- propuesto por Stewart y Oke en el Área Metropolitana de Mendoza -AMM-. Como hipótesis se sostiene que la zonificación microclimática permitiría un ordenamiento ambiental de la ciudad en relación a la disponibilidad de recursos climáticos y sus ...

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 149, Issue 755, Page 2617-2633, July 2023 Part B., 2023 In this study, a new multilayer urban canopy parameterization for high‐resolution (∼1 km) atmospheric models using the nudging approach to represent the impacts of urban canopies on airflow is presented. Results show that the parameterization developed can simulate aerodynamic effects induced within the canopy by obstacles well, in terms of reduction ...

Earth and Space Science, Volume 10, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Land cover (LC) data incorporation, for weather modeling purposes, highlights many problems. The straightforward Single Level Mode (SLM) aggregation is not adapted for high‐resolution LC maps, with a high number of classes, because it could generate false classifications.

Gaps in toxic industrial chemical model systems: Improvements and changes over past 10 years
Process Safety Progress, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 151-166, March 2022., 2022 Abstract To assess the hazards of the releases of toxic industrial chemicals (TICs) to the atmosphere, comprehensive model systems are often used, which begin with the scenario definition and end with an estimate of health risk. In 2008 and 2010, the US Department of Homeland Security and Defense Threat Reduction Agency sponsored reports that ...

GeoHealth, Volume 6, Issue 1, January 2022., 2022 Abstract Accelerated urbanization increases both the frequency and intensity of heatwaves (HW) and urban heat islands (UHIs). An extreme HW event occurred in 2012 summer that caused temperatures of more than 40°C in Chicago, Illinois, USA, which is a highly urbanized city impacted by UHIs.
