20.500.12556/RUL-136109 The impact of climate change on urban thermal environment dynamics The human population is increasing. The ongoing urbanization process, in conjunction with climate change, is causing larger environmental footprints. Consequently, quality of life in urban systems worldwide is under immense pressure. Here, the seasonal characteristics of Maribor's urban thermal environment were studied from the perspectives of surface urban heat island (SUHI) and urban heat island (UHI) A remote sensing thermal imagery time series and in-situ measurements (stationary and mobile) were combined with select geospatial predictor variables to model this atmospheric phenomenon in its most intensive season (summer). Finally, CMIP6 climate change scenarios and models were considered, to predict future UHI intensity. Results indicate that Maribor's UHI intensity maximum shifted from winter to spring and summer. The implemented generalized additive model (GAM) underestimates UHI intensity in some built-up parts of the study area and overestimates UHI intensity in green vegetated areas. However, by the end of the century, UHI magnitude could increase by more than 60% in the southern industrial part of the city. Such studies are of particular concern, in regards to the increasing frequency of heat waves due to climate change, which further increases the (already present) heat stress in cities across the globe. urbanization urban heat island summer heat stress GAM CMIP6 UHI urbanizacija mestni toplotni otoki poletni vročinski stres GAM CMIP6 true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2022-04-13 10:36:01 2022-04-13 10:36:07 2022-09-15 04:13:24 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2021 0 0 14 str. iss. 9, art. 1159 Vol. 12 2021 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 502.3:504.7:502.5:551.58 2073-4433 10.3390/atmos12091159 75887619 atmosphere-12-01159-v2.pdf atmosphere-12-01159-v2.pdf 1 61305874FBBAE58A04686E9BD61E5845 c18a2705c65b49bea3ad85798ef3a4464bbe2c727a8d166d44ded585615c8d3c 218b4bdd-bb05-11ec-8aca-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=155578 https://www.mdpi.com/2073-4433/12/9/1159 0 d4df9c27-bb04-11ec-8aca-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=155577 Biotehniška fakulteta 0 0 0
