The local climate zone (LCZ) system provides a universal classification mechanism for
urban and natural landscapes and plays an increasingly important role in urban climate …

Urbanization leads to an increase in urban heat islands (UHIs), which is a cause for concern
because they endanger the ecological environment and human health. Scenario …

Urbanization intensifies urban heat and compromises thermal comfort. However, few studies
have examined the interactions of Urban Heat Island (UHI) between neighboring cities and …

High-resolution microclimate data is essential for capturing spatio-temporal heterogeneity of
urban climate and heat health management. However, previous studies have relied on …

In recent years, the concept of Local Climate Zone (LCZ) has been widely used in various
cross-cutting areas of urban climate planning and has the potential to become a generalized …

The urban thermal environment is a complex phenomenon, and its effects can be
manifested in various aspects, such as the urban heat island intensity (UHII), outdoor …

Anthropogenic heat flux (QF) significantly affects urban surface energy budget. However,
refined QF data are lacking for most cities across the world. To address this deficiency, this …

The natural cooling capacity of the environment can effectively reduce the building energy
consumption by natural ventilation (NV). For architects, develo** NV strategies requires a …

Accurate simulation of urban near-surface air temperature (SAT) is essential for
understanding climate dynamics. The reliability of the simulated SAT depends largely on the …

The global electric vehicle (EV) market is undergoing rapid expansion. EV adoption can
reduce vehicle heat (VH) emissions on the road, yet its potential benefit to the urban thermal …
