The Urban Archipelago Effect
We model and describe the combined effect of a series of urban heat islands (UHIs), generated by nearby cities aligned as an archipelago, on the vertical diffusion of heat and the temperature structure in the lower atmosphere over an urban chain in northwestern Morocco. We use the Weather and Forecasting Model (WRF) coupled to an urban canopy model to run simulations during the northern summer. We show that when the land surface is characterized …
Interplay Between Vegetation and Urban Climate in Morocco—Impact on Human Thermal Comfort
This study examines diurnal surface temperature dynamics across major Moroccan cities during the growing season and explores the interaction between urban and vegetated surfaces. We also introduce the Urban Thermal Impact Ratio (UTIR), a novel metric designed to quantify urban thermal comfort as a function of the surface urban heat island (SUHI) intensity. The analysis is based on outputs from a land surface model (LSM) for the year 2010, integra…
Urban Sustainability Development in Morocco, a Review
During the last decades, Morocco has recorded substantial urbanization and faced challenges related to urban sprawl and encroachment on fertile lands. This paper reviews several studies assessing urban sustainability development in 27 Moroccan urban areas using the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicator 11.3.1, i.e., the ratio of Land Consumption Rate (LCR) to Population Growth Rate (PGR). Among the 27 urban areas reviewed, analysis of…
