More marked at night, this difference is characterized by air temperatures (at different heights) and surface temperatures (temperatures of specific urban materials, and is thus strongly correlated with the variation in urban density, in particular building materials. A study launched in 2020 made it possible to identify urban heat islands
More marked at night, this difference is characterized by air temperatures (at different heights) and surface temperatures (temperatures of specific urban materials, and is thus strongly correlated with the variation in urban density, in particular building materials. A study launched in 2020 made it possible to identify urban heat islands (ICUs) and cooler areas, in order to be able to assess the vulnerability of the territory and areas with high stakes.
