The Study for the Influencing Factors of Urban Heat Island Development

Abstract:

The impacts of some factors on the development of urban heat island are investigated in this paper. The results show that the development of urban heat island is influenced by many factors. Cold and try climate is more favorable for the development of urban heat island than warm and moist climate; Urban heat island develops slowly in those seashore cities that are influenced obviously by land and sea breezes. Closed topography (e.g., valleys, basins) is favorable for the development. The heat island development is direct proportional to urban developing speed; In the cities in which highly energy consumption industries concentrate, heat island is more obvious.
