A study into the existence of an Urban Heat Island in Sheffield, UK
An investigation into the influence of urban geometry
With rapid conversion of vegetated, undisturbed land to urban land uses with the process of urbanisation, comes an alteration in the local climate of an area and the formation of an Urban Heat Island (UHI). A substantial amount of previous work has found that the climate of a city differs from the surrounding rural regions, with a big input on the effects of urban geometry. Competing views exist over the exact influence from urban geometry, as well as how large scale weather conditions affect the UHI of a city. This work will aim to establish if Sheffield has a marked UHI, and to distinguish the true influence of the climatic and geometrical…

Über den Autor
I am an MSc student currently studying at the University of Sheffield, studying Polar and Alpine Change. My interests in Geography all tend to be based around climatology, and relating climatic phenomena to different processes around the world, such as climate change impacts on Urban Heat Islands and Antarctic climate change relating to the tropics
