Urban climate change refers to how cities experience altered weather patterns due to human activities. These changes can mean hotter temperatures and different rainfall compared to nearby rural areas. Heat islands are part of urban climate change where cities get much hotter than their surroundings. This happens because materials like concrete and asphalt soak up and hold more heat than natural surfaces. Buildings and cars also add heat. Heat islands can make air quality worse, increase how much energy we use for cooling and affect people's health, especially during hot weather. Addressing urb...
Urban climate change refers to how cities experience altered weather patterns due to human activities. These changes can mean hotter temperatures and different rainfall compared to nearby rural areas. Heat islands are part of urban climate change where cities get much hotter than their surroundings. This happens because materials like concrete and asphalt soak up and hold more heat than natural surfaces. Buildings and cars also add heat. Heat islands can make air quality worse, increase how much energy we use for cooling and affect people's health, especially during hot weather. Addressing urban climate change and heat islands involves strategies like urban planning with green spaces, reflective roofs and efficient energy use to mitigate their impacts on cities and inhabitants. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts in the field of climate change impacts. The topics covered in this extensive book deal with the core subjects of climatology. It aims to serve as a resource guide for students and experts alike and contribute to the growth of the discipline.
