The thermal characteristics of urban areas diff er from the thermal characteristics of the surroundings. The phenomenon of urban heat islands exists both in large urban areas and in smaller medium-sized areas. In the research of urban heat islands, there are two main approaches – direct measurements of air temperature in the field and reading tempe...
Increasing thermal risk in cities is endangering the health and well-being of urban
population and is driven by climate change and intensive urbanization. Therefore, if we plan to enlarge the capacities of cities to be more climate resilient in the 21st century, more detailed monitoring of urban climate on local and micro scales is needed. For this...
Increasingly hot summer days and urbanization in cities will further modify urban thermal conditions, consequently amplifying urban-rural and intra-urban thermal differences. Therefore, climate monitoring of urban areas is necessary, i.e., monitoring on micro-scale, near regional or local levels.
The Novi Sad Urban Climate Lab has developed the Mob...
Introduction: Cities are under the pressure of intensive urbanization and modified environmental conditions, which are expressed due to climate change, intensification of traffic and industry, and constant reduction of green areas, and that lead to more intense urban heat island (UHI) effect. Furthermore, some research has shown that a large number...

In the light of climate change and burgeoning urbanization, heat loads in urban areas have
emerged as serious issues, affecting the well-being of the population and the environment. In response to a pressing need for more standardised and communicable research into urban climate, the concept of local climate zones (LCZs) has been created. This conc...
An urban environment defines a specific micro-climate which directly affects the quality of life in urbanized areas and often has a negative impact on urban populations. Phenomena like urban heat and surface heat islands are direct products of an urban lifestyle. Urban meteorological networks (UMNs) are a tool that can help to better understand and...
The Urban Heat Islands (UHI) effect is a microclimatic phenomenon that especially affects urban areas. It is associated with significant temperature increases in the local microclimate, and may amplify heat waves. Due to their intensity, UHI causes not only thermal discomfort, but also reductions in the levels of life quality. This paper reviews th...

A direct outcome of the global climate change is the modification of seasonal precipitation patterns, apparent on a monthly temporal scale. In Central Europe, it includes more frequent high-intensity rain-falls, occurring mostly during spring and summer. These heavy rainfalls induce pluvial floods in urban areas due to a high percentage of impervio...
Urban and rural thermal properties mainly depend on surface cover features as well as vegetation cover. Surface classification using the local climate zone (LCZ) system provides an appropriate approach for distinguishing urban and rural areas, as well as comparing the surface urban heat island (SUHI) of climatically different regions. Our goal is t...
Pluvial flooding is a result of overland flow and ponding before the runoff enters any watercourse, drainage system or sewer, or cannot enter it because the network is full to capacity, usually caused by intense rainfall. River and coastal floods get the most attention since they are largest and last the longest , while pluvial floods are relativel...
