Abstract:

As the capital of China and a densely populated city, Beijing experiences a significant urban heat island (UHI) effect. Studying the UHI effect and population heat exposure risk in Beijing, as well as exploring the influencing factors, is of great importance for mitigating the adverse effects of summer heat on residents’ health. This study analyzes the diurnal variation patterns of land surface temperature (LST) and surface urban heat island intensity (SUHII) in the area within Beijing’s Fifth Ring Road during summer based on local climate zones (LCZ). This study explores the diurnal dynamic changes and spatial patterns of the urban thermal environment in different LCZ types. Additionally, by combining population data at different times of the day, this study investigated the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics of the population heat exposure intensity within the Fifth Ring Road and assessed its risk levels. The results showed the following: 1) Throughout the day (starting from midnight), the average LST within the Fifth Ring Road initially rose and then fell, with the city center maintaining a higher LST, which gradually decreased in high-temperature areas after noon. The SUHII of the study area followed a similar pattern, first increasing and then weakening, with the local UHI phenomena appearing at night. SUHII exhibits a clear hierarchical structure, gradually decreasing from the urban center to the outskirts. 2) Within the Fifth Ring Road, compact building zones were the main type, and there were significant diurnal variations in LST and SUHII among the different LCZ types. For the urban building types, the average LST in compact building areas was higher than that in open building areas. During the day, the average SUHII value decreased with increasing building height; however, the opposite was true at night. 3) The intensity of population heat exposure at different levels in the study area exhibited varying diurnal trends. During the day, the heat exposure intensity gradually spread outward from the city center, reaching its peak at noon and decreasing to its lowest level from evening to night. Therefore, urban planning should avoid overly dense mid- to high-rise buildings and prioritize increasing vegetation coverage to alleviate the UHI effect and reduce population heat exposure risk.

摘要:

北京作为中国首都和人口密集城市,其城市热岛效应问题较为严重,研究其热岛效应与人口热暴露风险对于减轻夏季高温对居民健康的不利影响至关重要。基于局地气候分区(Local Climate Zones,LCZ)分析北京市五环路内夏季地表温度(Land Surface Temperature,LST)及地表城市热岛强度(Surface Urban Island Intensity,SUHII)的日变化规律,探究不同LCZ间城市热环境的日动态变化和空间格局,并结合不同时刻的人口数据研究人口热暴露强度的时空分布特征,评估风险等级。结果表明:1)一天中研究区内的平均LST整体呈现先上升后下降的趋势,城市中心保持较高地表温度,SUHII先增加后减弱,夜间局部热岛现象消失,SUHII呈现出从城市中心向外围逐渐降低的层级结构;2)研究区内以紧凑型建筑区为主,不同LCZ类型的昼夜LST变化和SUHII差异显著,紧凑型建筑区的平均LST高于开阔型建筑区,白天SUHII平均值随着建筑高度升高而减小,夜间则相反;3)研究区内不同等级的人口热暴露强度在日内呈现出不同的变化趋势,一天中热暴露强度由城市中心逐渐向外扩散,正午时达到峰值,傍晚至夜间降至最低。因此在城市规划中,应避免过于密集的中高层建筑,并重视提高植被覆盖率,以缓解城市热岛效应,降低人口热暴露风险。
