Summary | We improved the numerical simulation system we have developed for urban heat island measures suitable for some typical local areas with many numerical simulations, and considered the way for evaluation of multi-UHI measures. We also made our simulation software more easy-to-use for local governments so that they can choose effective UHI measures suitable for the area of interest such as reducing CO2 emission. |
