To kick start this Urban Heat Island Tweet Chat, we at @NOAAClimate are going to ask the first question. Why do Urban Heat Islands matter? #ClimateQApic.twitter.com/XTbZfBl37h
A definition: Urban Heat Islands are neighborhoods that are disproportionately hotter than their adjacent due to the physical infrastructure that amplifies like concrete, buildings, parking lots. #ClimateQApic.twitter.com/lLn8GJjdFR
Why urban heat? Urban heat reveals the legacy of traditional public works and urban planning thinking where ecological services are undervalued/ignored. UHI data benchmarks, brings to light challenges and priorities especially for vulnerable populations. - Lisa
Across the nation, more people die from heat than other natural disasters. Current day buildings are not designed for the increasing intensity of heat waves, which are also longer and more frequent. - Vivek
Why urban heat? State wide, we talk about social inequality. People without cooling whether by choice or by not having funds for AC. - Dave
Even pervious surfaces without vegetation are hot. Vacant lots and right of ways are an undervalued asset. - Lisa
Urban heat is too often overlooked when discussing human impacts on our climate. Are there any concurrent activities, efforts, or resources involving urban precipitation related to the UHI in @NOAAClimate?
The urban heat island can have an impact on precipitation patterns especially on large cities. For example in Atlanta they found UHI changed storm timing. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S135223109900374X … -Dave 1/2 #ClimateQA
