The temporal variability of the canopy-level urban heat island (UHI) of Singapore is examined for different temporal scales on the basis of observations during a 1-year period. Temperature data obtained from different urban areas (commercial, Central Business District (CBD), high-rise and low-rise h
## Abstract Several studies have tried to determine the empirical relationships between the maximum urban heat island (UHI) intensity and factors such as the city size taking the number of inhabitants as indicator, the geometry of the city (i.e. the __H__/__W__ ratio), meteorological factors, etc.
Nocturnal atmospheric cooling rates were investigated in a medium sized town in Sweden. Rates were found to be very different, depending on the time of the evening/night, therefore the urban heat island (UHI) development was divided into three phases: a, differential cooling; b, transition; and c, s
