Description | Die lugtemperature van stedelike gebiede is gewoonlik warmer as die lugtemperature van die omringende platteland. Hierdie verskynsel word die stedelike hitte-eilandeffek genoem. Urban heat islands (UHIs) are characterised by warmer urban air temperatures compared to rural air temperatures, and the intensity is equal to the difference between the two. Air temperatures are measured at various sites across the city of Bloemfontein and then analysed to determine the UHI characteristics. The UHI is found to have a horseshoe shape and reaches a maximum intensity of 8.2 °C at 22:00. The UHI is largely affected by the local topography. | |
