Journal ArticleDOI

Refreshing the role of open water surfaces on mitigating the maximum urban heat island effect

TL;DR: Based on weather observations by Dutch hobby meteorologists and a station network in Rotterdam (Netherlands), this article showed that water bodies increase rather than decrease the 95 percentile of the daily maximum UHI.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling the influence of open water surfaces on the summertime temperature and thermal comfort in the city

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use the WRF mesoscale meteorological model in which an idealized circular city is designed and show that the cooling effect of water bodies depends nonlinearly on the fractional water cover, size, and distribution of individual lakes within the city with respect to wind direction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Urban Multi-scale Environmental Predictor (UMEP)

TL;DR: Applications are presented to illustrate UMEP's potential in the identification of heat waves and cold waves; the effect of green infrastructure on runoff; the effects of buildings on human thermal stress; solar energy production; and the impact of human activities on heat emissions.

Modeling the influence of open water surfaces on the summertime temperature and thermal comfort in the city

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use the WRF mesoscale meteorological model in which an idealized circular city is designed and show that the cooling effect of water bodies depends nonlinearly on the fractional water cover, size, and distribution of individual lakes within the city with respect to wind direction.
