Abstract
The influence of the urban heat island on the microclimate of urbanized space
Incoming article date: 29.10.2021The article considers the problem of the formation of urban heat islands. The reasons for the occurrence of such heat islands are revealed. The influence of artificial urbanized surfaces on the albedo value is analyzed. The connection of the appearance of urban heat islands with the reduction of plant and water resources of the city has been established. The estimation of anthropogenic heat emissions, urban morphology is given. Possible solutions for reducing the influence of urban heat island on the microclimate of urbanized space are presented. A number of natural urban planning and architectural construction tools and methods of regulating urban heat islands are formulated. Their complex accounting at the stage of city planning and design of buildings and structures is indicated. This approach is recommended using software systems modeling an urbanized environment as a basis for regulating heat islands, reducing their negative impact on urban space.
