This revised edition of nai010's well-received study includes a decade's worth of new case studies concerning urban-specific climate issues

Ten years after its initial publication, Weather in the City is more relevant than ever. Prolonged heat waves are a source of many stress-related problems, especially in densely populated areas. Certain wind phenomena in cities have also caused issues in the atmosphere. Based on these factors, Sanda Lenzholzer shows how basic climatic processes work in an urban environment, and how they can be influenced by spatial planning and urban design. This revised edition draws on current examples in demonstrating how the comfort of the urban environment can be enhanced using modern techniques and new methods. The book is both a reference work and a source of inspiration for all those engaged in creating a liveable city: be they clients, policymakers, professionals or students involved in urban design, landscape architecture and planning.
