- W2890559164 abstract "Although the urban heat island (UHI) is well studied, the dynamic nature (i.e. with wind) receives little attention. The concept, urban heat advection (UHA), can warm air temperatures in surrounding rural areas. Thismay lead to a misinterpretation of local climate and bias in long-term climate records. Using observationalanalysis and numerical modelling this thesis investigates these limitations by spatially quantifying UHA. Amethodology to separate UHA from the background air temperature was applied to a high-density urbanobservation network in the city of Birmingham, UK demonstrating mean downwind UHA of 0.4oC and up to1.2oC at individual stations (wind speeds 2 – 3 m s-1). This UHA methodology was adapted to show that evensmall urban areas (~1 km2) can produce a mean UHA of 0.6oC. TheWeather Research & Forecasting numericalmodel was used to refine the UHA methodology (accounting for regional heat advection) and conduct semiidealisedsimulations. Here, a square city with 16 km size produced UHA of 2.4oC at the city edge, with 0.5oCwarming extending 9 km downwind. A relationship was found between city size and UHA intensity, enablingstatistical scaling. This demonstrated an approach to estimate UHA without the need for computationallyexpensive simulations." @default.
