Managing the adverse thermal effects of urban development in a densely populated Chinese city.
Guangzhou city in South China has experienced an accelerated urban development since the 1980s. This paper examines the impact of the urban development on urban heat islands through a historical analysis of urban-rural air temperature differences. Remote sensing techniques were applied to derive information on land use/cover and land surface temperatures and to assess the thermal response patte...
متن کاملReal-Time Rendering of Densely Populated Urban Environments
In this paper we present some preliminary results concerning a realtime visualisation system for densely populated urban environments. In order to be able to render the large number of humans without compromising too much the image quality, we developed a method based on Image-Based Rendering techniques. To allow them to move freely in the city while avoiding collisions against the environment ...

متن کاملAir Pollution Monitoring Design for Epidemiological Application in a Densely Populated City
Introduction: Many studies have reported the association between air pollution and human health based on regulatory air pollution monitoring data. However, because regulatory monitoring networks were not designed for epidemiological studies, the collected data may not provide sufficient spatial contrasts for assessing such associations. Our goal was to develop a monitoring design supplementary ...
