Exploring Urban Forms Vulnerable to Urban Heat Islands: A Multiscale Analysis
Understanding urban forms vulnerable to urban heat islands provides urban planning measures to improve urban heat islands and offering insight into different sustainable urban forms. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the urban heat island effect and urban forms, to explore which urban forms are vulnerable to this effect, and to present urban planning measures to alleviate urban heat islands. This study also conducted an analysis on two scales, the macro- and micro-dimensions, to develop policy suggestions for urban heat island mitigation. In the macro-scale analysis, the relationship between urban shape and urban heat islands was investigated through a statistical approach using a regression equation, and in the micro-scale analysis, a spatial analysis method using urban climate zones (LCZs) was used.
