An Urban Heat Island in the Atmospheric Boundary Layer and the Concentration of Pollutants Over the City of Ufa in 2021

The urban heat island and the level of atmospheric air pollution in the city of Ufa are investigated by analyzing the diurnal data from nine stationary stations of the state observation network for the environmental conditions and from a remote meteorological temperature profiler. It is shown how th...

Description
Summary:The urban heat island and the level of atmospheric air pollution in the city of Ufa are investigated by analyzing the diurnal data from nine stationary stations of the state observation network for the environmental conditions and from a remote meteorological temperature profiler. It is shown how the features of the microclimate at the locations of the stations created by the peculiar orography affect the calculated values of the urban heat island in Ufa. Based on long-range measurements with a meteorological vertical profiler for the city of Ufa, the unique statistical characteristics of the thermal field are obtained. The degree of urban air pollution is estimated by using the calculated values of the pollution parameter.
