A novel pedestrian-level approach for estimating urban storage heat flux using wearable sensing and modeling
The rapid escalation of urban heat stress necessitates more comprehensive approaches to monitoring urban thermal dynamics. This study presents a novel methodology to estimate the urban storage heat flux (ΔQs) at the pedestrian level using the Thermal Variability Scheme (TVS), a key scale for improving human wellbeing in cities. The method integrates wearable environmental monitoring with weather station data to generate high-resolution forcing in…
Urban heat mitigation through misting, and its role in broader blue infrastructure portfolios
Scale-dependent response of the urban heat island to the European heatwave of 2018
Extreme heat continues to be a pressing challenge of the changing climate. The impacts of extreme heat manifest on two different spatio-temporal scales: (1) episodic continent-wide heatwaves (HWs) and (2) the city-scale urban heat island (UHI). As HWs are becoming more frequent, longer, and severe, they pose serious implications of increased public health risks at a city scale, and have adverse impacts on agricultural and terrestrial/aquatic ecos…
Impact of heatwave on a megacity
More than half of the world's current population resides in urban areas, and cities account for roughly three-quarters of the total greenhouse gas emissions. Current and future trends in urbanization will have significant impacts on global climate. However, our collective understanding of the climate of urban areas remains deficient, which is mainly related to significant knowledge gaps in observations. The New York City Summer Heat Campaign was …
