Measuring nocturnal near-surface urban heat island intensity in the small, mid-latitude city of Inverness, Scotland

Presse/Médias: Research

Description

The Highland capital has developed rapidly over the last few decades and is continuing to expand.

But that ‘urbanisation’ has had an impact on the temperature of the city compared to surrounding areas.

ground-breaking study has revealed Inverness can be up to 3.5C warmer than more rural locations and this could rise to up to 7.4°C by 2080.
