Modeling of changes in human thermal bioclimate resulting from changes in urban design - Example based on a popular place in Freiburg, SW-Germany

چکیده
Introduction Urban street design has a strong influence on human thermal bioclimate. Especially shading and ground coverage show great impact (Lin et al 2010 a, b). Thus, if the design of a popular urban place is changed, human thermal bioclimate on the place may be seriously affected. Facing the impact of global climate change especially heat stress should be reduced (Matzarakis and Endler 2010). According to the “ideal urban climate” a thermal bioclimate with lots of spatial variation, but avoiding extremes” (Mayer 1989) is to be preferred.

The simplest definition of urbanization is that urbanization is the process of becoming urban. Urban climate is defined by specific climate conditions which differ from surrounding rural areas. Urban areas, for example, have higher temperatures than surrounding rural areas and weaker winds. Land Surface Temperature is an important phenomenon in global climate change.

متن کاملInvestigations of Urban Climate’s Thermal Component in Freiburg, Germany
Freiburg is a city with about 200.000 inhabitants located in the southwest of Germany where thermal level is the highest within the country. Therefore, urban climate plays a dominant role in urban planning in Freiburg. Due to its location in the river Rhine's valley, urban climate in Freiburg is influenced by a regional wind system (‘Hoellentaeler“) caused by the near black forest (Gross 1989)....
