The spatial and temporal features of urban heat islands of the metropolitan cities, Tainan, Kaoshoung and Hsinchu in Taiwan are studied by the temperature isotherm maps and the city contexts and textures .The results reveal that the heat island patterns of the coastal cities, Tainan, Kaoshoung and Hsinchu is affected by the sea and land breezes. It is also clear from the results that in urban areas, large greened areas or parks play a key role in reducing temperatures. Finally, the greatest heat island intensities of Tainan, Kaoshoung and Hsinchu found in the evenings, are 4.4°C, 3.4°C and 3.7°C respectively. In addition, data collected from the urban heat island survey of the three metropolises are analyzed with the urban geographical information through the multivariate statistical analysis methods. In summary, results of the survey are: (1)In Tainan, the average air temperature decreases 0.3°C when the building coverage decreases10% at noon and night. the average air temperature decreases 0.1°C when the green coverage increases 10% at midnight. (2)In Kaoshoung, the average air temperature decreases 0.1°C when the water density increases 10% at noon. the average air temperature decreases 0.1 ¢J when the people decreases 10000/km2 at night. the average air temperature decreases 0.3°C when the building volume decreases 10% at midnight. (3)In Hsinchu, the average air temperature decreases 0.7°C, 0.8°C, 0.8°C when the people decreases 10000/km2 at three times. Results of the analyses indicate that urban thermal environment can be improved by proper city plan. Moreover, solutions valuable to city planning to mitigate heat islands are also included. |
