Table 4 Common urban morphology representations and the idealised “urban unit model” in this study (3)

From: Transforming typical hourly simulation weather data files to represent urban locations by using a 3D urban unit representation with micro-climate simulations

Idealised models used to represent urban morphology

(1) Uniform height and aspect ratio

(2) Variable height and aspect ratio

(3) Variable height, aspect ratio and shape of blocks plus water (blue) and vegetation (green) surfaces.

  1. Models (1) and (2) in table were adapted from [42]
