A rapid fine-scale approach to modelling urban bioclimatic conditions

چکیده
Surface characteristics play a vital role in simulations for urban bioclimatic conditions. Changing relationships and distribution patterns of sealed vegetated surfaces as well building geometry across different scales environments influence surface temperatures. Cities comprise forms, which, depending on their characteristics, enhance the heating process, increasing emergence heat islands (UHIs). Detecting priority areas to introduce multi-beneficial climate change adaptation measures is set be key task cities long-term strategies improve climatic conditions structures scales. We simple fast spatial modelling approach carry out fine-scale land temperature (LST), mean radiant (MRT) Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) 2D environment. Capabilities our are demonstrated evaluating thermal comfort alpine city Innsbruck, capital Tyrol western Austria. Results show major contrast between reflected distributional values LST, MRT UTCI, correlating with appearance frequency specific classes. found Sky View Factor have substantial impact calculations see high-albedo decrease LST but increase apparent (MRT UTCI values) effecting human comfort. Furthermore, more sensitive changes emissivity values, whereas Bowen Ratio values.

Fine-Scale Exposure to Allergenic Pollen in the Urban Environment: Evaluation of Land Use Regression Approach
BACKGROUND Despite the recent developments in physically and chemically based analysis of atmospheric particles, no models exist for resolving the spatial variability of pollen concentration at urban scale. OBJECTIVES We developed a land use regression (LUR) approach for predicting spatial fine-scale allergenic pollen concentrations in the Helsinki metropolitan area, Finland, and evaluated th...
متن کاملA multi-sensor approach to fine-scale fire characterization
* Corresponding author. Abstract – Recent improvements in sensor capabilities have enabled fire characterization from satellites. Instantaneous intensities of active fires have been characterized by the Fire Radiative Power (FRP), while burn severity has been assessed from the evaluation of Normalized Burn Ratios (NBR) derived from preand post-fire multispectral imagery. MODIS on the Terra and ...
متن کاملTowards Rapid 3d Modelling of Urban Areas
Modelling and simulation applications for operations in urban areas often set high resolution and fidelity requirements for the 3D environment models. For applications supporting ongoing operations, e.g decision support, mission planning, etc., additional requirements such as time frame and accessibility to the area of interest must also be taken into account in the modelling task. One possible...
متن کاملModelling Urban Expansion: A Multiple Urban-Densities Approach
Most existing spatio-temporal urban expansion models consider urban land-use as a binary process, through the identification of urban versus non-urban areas. The main aim of this study is to analyze and model the expansion of multiple urban densities in Wallonia, Belgium. To this end, this study employs a multinomial logistic regression model that enables to visualize the consequence of differe...
