  • Mapping of Micro-Meteorological Conditions Using Statistical
    ICUC9 - 9th International Conference on Urban Climate jointly with 12th Symposium on the Urban Environment Mapping of micro-meteorological conditions using statistical approaches – The example of Stuttgart Christine Ketterer and Andreas Matzarakis Faculty of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Albert-Ludwigs-University of Freiburg Fahnenbergplatz, 79085 Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany dated: 30 May 2015 1. Introduction The majority of the world’s population lives in cities. Health, well-being and productivity of people in urban areas depends also on meteorological conditions (Curriero, 2002; Nastos and Matzarakis, 2012), which differ significantly from those at rural areas. Up to 70,000 people died in Western Europe during the very hot summer in 2003 (Robine et al., 2008). It was estimated that heat stress and heat waves would occur more frequent, intense and longer lasting due to anthropogenic climate change in the 21st century (Beniston, 2004; Meehl and Tebaldi, 2004; Schär et al., 2004). Thus, the aim of city planners and officials is the implementation of adaptation measures in cities to counteract the increase in frequency of heat stress in the 21st century. To do so, city planners and officials need to know about the spatial and temporal dimensions of the meteorological conditions and their impact on humans in a city. As human beings do not have a sensor for air temperature, the thermal feeling depends on the integral effect of air temperature, air humidity, wind speed and radiation fluxes. Hence, modern human-biometeorological methods were applied for the quantification of thermal conditions in urban areas (Höppe, 1993). Mapping of the urban biometeorological conditions is important to identify areas with high thermal load.
