Influence of the Effect of the Urban Heat Island on the Cities Sustainable Development

Abstract

The result of the action of the urban heat island on the layout of the city of Hanoi is considered. It is stated that the formation and development of sustainable urban development creates optimal conditions for the life and work of citizens, is a guarantee of safety and comfortable living, and guards the natural environment. In a scientifi c study, such a remote sensing method was used as a means of analyzing the surface temperature in a city with environmental problems due to the eff ect of the “urban heat island” (UHI. The analysis was performed using satellite images Landsat-5, Landsat-7, Landsat-8. This study confi rmed the existence of the urban heat island eff ect in the center of Hanoi and examined the role of city confi guration on a macro scale. The effi ciency of using green spaces on the roofs of megacities is estimated. It is emphasized that thanks to the transpiration process, green spaces contribute to reducing the negative eff ects of UHI and gas contamination. It is established that the use in the city’s architecture of light surfaces of buildings and planes (roads, sidewalks, platforms) favorably aff ects the mesoclimate, performing the cooling function. At the macro level, the orderly introduction of green spaces in large cities helps to resolve serious environmental problems such as global warming and the greenhouse eff ect.

A Technique for Generating Preliminary Satellite Data to Evaluate SUHI Using Cloud Computing: A Case Study in Moscow, Russia

“…The results of the above calculations were derived from the code lines obtained from the following link: https://code.earthengine.google.com/66dde090f75f43e8667a4318563d9bbe (accessed on 1 September 2022). According to Shukurov et al (2020) [24], the SUHI is defined as a phenomenon where the atmospheric layer experiences a difference in daytime and night-time temperatures of approximately 7-12 • , as reflected in the statistics in Table 3. This study found evidence of a SUHI effect in Moscow.…”

Quantifying the Scale Effect of the Relationship between Land Surface Temperature and Landscape Pattern

“…Furthermore, the Remote Sens. 2023, 15, 2131 2 of 21 thermal environment has a profound impact on urban energy and water consumption, ecosystem processes, biological phenology, and the sustainable development of urban economies [12][13][14]. Therefore, addressing the urban heat island effect is an urgent priority.…”
