Translation of urban climate analysis output using chorematic representation : case of French cities
(2021)
With the intention to support the integration of climatology into urban planning, this thesis explores an uncommon method for communication of microclimatic data to planners. The research aims to devise a methodology to ...
A critical evaluation of different methods of urban climate mapping : a case study of Glasgow City
(2021)
The urban climate is a modified urban atmospheric phenomenon shaped by urban morphology and land use pattern. Urban Heat Island (UHI) is an emerging urban climatic concern that increases the heat risk likelihood in urban ...
Microclimatic analysis to mitigate urban heat islands using urban climatic map approach : Toulouse, France
(2021)
Cities are urbanising at a fast phase to accommodate more people, which leads to global and local warming. Due to urbanisation, European cities are facing summer heatwave issues. The air temperature reaches up to 40 degrees ...
Green infrastructure cooling strategies for urban heat island mitigation in cities : case study of Glasgow city centre
(2021)
Synergy of the warming produced by the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect and current climate trends is likely to affect the thermal environment of the cities. Urban green infrastructure (UGI) has been promoted as a key strategy ...
Local climate adaptation in high altitude cities : the case of 12 high altitude cities
(2021)
This paper investigates the local climate adaptation in 12 high altitude cities. It tries to find out the factors that determine local climate adaptation in high altitude cities by statistically testing 30 potentially ...
Assessing local climate functions of urban green open spaces : a case study on public and institutional open spaces in Glasgow
(2022)
Urban Green Open Spaces are one of the essential elements that narrate a city's liveability and life-stream. Due to the emergence impact of global climate change and increasing urbanization, 21st century is at a critical ...
A Comparative analysis of the Cooling effects of Green Infrastructure Types on Peshawar's Urban Microclimate in Public Squares
(2023)
This thesis conducts a comparative analysis of the cooling effects of green infrastructure (GI) types in Peshawar's urban microclimate, with a focus on three selected public squares. Utilizing Land Surface Temperature data, ...
The Role of Urban Vegetation in Urban Heat Island (UHI) Mitigation and Outdoor Thermal Comfort Improvement : Case Study of Tampere, Finland
(2023)
Nowadays, cities face continuous exposure to the effects of urban heat island (UHI), a phenomenon where urban areas experience higher temperatures than rural areas (Oke et al., 2017). In Tampere, Finland, it is projected ...
