The significance of country breezes for urban planning
AbstractThe increase of horizontal air exchange in agglomeration areas, especially during weather conditions with low wind velocities, is crucial in urban planning.In this connection the mesoscale circulation induced by an urban heat island, i.e., a country breeze (‘Flurwind’), is of great importance for the improvement of the ventilation in built-up areas.An insight into the characteristic flow patterns of country breezes and their implications for urban planning purposes necessitates continuous measurements.This paper presents an analysis of recorded wind data at five stations over a period of 16 months. The area under investigation was Bochum, a town located in the heart of the densely populated Ruhr industrial region in the Federal Republic of Germany.The results show that country breezes occurred during 10% of the total measuring time in the city of Bochum. The records, including the spatial and temporal structure of country breezes, confirm that this kind of wind regime must be regarded as an essential element in urban planning.
