Estimation of the Relationship between Urban Park Characteristics and Park Cool Island Intensity by Remote Sensing Data and Field Measurement
The cooling effects of urban parks, which form “Park Cool Island” (PCI), can help decrease land surface temperature (LST) and mitigate urban heat island (UHI) effects. PCI intensity largely depends on the characteristics of urban parks. The relationship between PCI intensity and urban park characteristics such as urban park size has been well documented. However, it is still unclear how urban f...
متن کاملUrban Heat Island and Park Cool Island Intensities in the Coastal City of Aracaju, North-Eastern Brazil
In this study, an evaluation of the Urban Heat Island (UHI) and Park Cool Island (PCI) intensities in Aracaju, North-Eastern Brazil, was performed. The basis of our evaluation is a 2-year dataset from the urban climatological network installed with the principles and concepts defined for urban areas related to climatic scales, sitting and exposure, urban morphology, and metadata. The current fi...
متن کاملEvaluation of cool roof and vegetations in mitigating urban heat island in a tropical city, Singapore
A numerical study with a weather research and forecasting (WRF) model at 300-m resolution shows that Singapore’s canopy-layer UHI intensity has a strong diurnal cycle, peaking in early morning and keeping almost constant during late night and early morning. The modeled ensemble peak UHI intensity is 2.2 C and it can reach 2.4 C during early morning in the intensive industrial region in west Sin...
متن کاملNumerical Prediction of Heat Island Mitigation Effect on Decrease in Air Temperature in Tokyo
The intensity of urban heat island is known to be stronger as city size (for example population of city) (Oke, 1973). In Tokyo 23 wards (hereinafter referred to as "Tokyo") with more than eight million people, urban heat island phenomenon is actualized and feared as a factor of increase in heatstroke patients and raising cooling energy consumption in summer. Therefore, Tokyo Metropolitan Govern...
متن کاملNatural elements spatial configuration and content usage in urban park
Abstract Urban parks are important public multifunctional space used for a wide range of activities. The usage levels of parks depend on the spatial characteristics of the spaces, where its forms and occupancies are referred as the usage-spatial relationship. Natural elements spatial complexity and park usability is of interest in this study. A photo - questionnaire was conducted among 296 of p...
