Research Abstract

Large-scale urban heat islands, typically observed in the Tokyo metropolitan area, require to investigate their specially large structure and formation mechanisms. Three phases of research have been evolved to develop a prediction technology for future trend and environmental impact assessment of countermeasures to be proposed:1) statistical analyses of meteorological data from the Tokyo metropolitan area in summers during last 20 years, 2) intensive summertime observations of thermal conditions within the city and over the urban-suburban areas, and 3) development of a numerical model for regional thermal environment.
