Heat exposure and cooling efficiency of trees in a tropical hot-humid neighborhood with a park
As cities increasingly endure hotter conditions, there is a critical need for reliable metrics that capture the cumulative and perceptual nature of pedestrian heat exposure. This study develops an integrated approach combining high-resolution urban Computational Fluid Dynmics (CFD) simulations with two complementary indices: a cumulative Heat Exposure Index and a Cooling Efficiency Index that quantify the magnitude, duration, and spatial variabil…
Optimal representation of tree foliage for local urban climate modeling
Starting with terrestrial LiDAR data from trees of different species, ages, and forms, we propose a systematic evaluation of the optimal representation of arboreal configurations in terms of local urban comfort. • Comparing four species and three maturity level of trees with this method, the paper shows that the size of the zone shadowed by a tree is the parameter with the largest impact on thermal comfort, as the ability of trees to absorb solar…
Using clustering to understand intra-city warming in heatwaves: Insights into Paris, Montreal, and Zurich
We introduce a novel methodological advancement by clustering paired near-surface air temperature with the planetary boundary layer height to characterize intra-city clusters for analytics. To illustrate this approach, we analyze three heatwaves (HWs): the 2019 HW in Paris, the 2018 HW in Montreal, and the 2017 HW in Zurich. We assess cluster-based characteristics before, during, and after heatwave events. While the urban clusters identified by t…
Relating three-decade surge in space cooling demand to urban warming
Rising demand for space cooling has been placing enormous strain on various technological, environmental, and societal dimensions, resulting in issues related to energy consumption, environmental sustainability, health and well-being, affordability, and equity. Holistic approaches that combine energy efficiency optimization, policy-making, and societal adaptation must be rapidly promoted as viable and timely solutions. We interpret the 30 year cl…
