  • Publication number: 20230129704
    Abstract: Provided is a method for building an urban canopy model based on tropical island climate characteristics. Adjacent regions are linked together, multiple streets of finite lengths within the regions affecting each other. Net radiation heat flux Q*=long-wave radiation+short-wave radiation. The tropical island urban canopy model considers the strong solar radiation and high temperature and high humidity climate characteristics of tropical cities and the influence of perennial monsoons on island cities, improves the methods of processing long-wave radiation flux, short-wave radiation flux, sensible and latent heat flux, street canyon wind velocity, heat storage flux, anthropogenic heat flux and horizontal heat flux on the basis of an urban canopy model, and has higher adaptability to the studies on the tropical island-type urban heat island effect.
