Fig. 9: Cooling services from trees target urban heat islands within city neighborhoods.
From: Neighborhood-scale reductions in heatwave burden projected under a 30% minimum tree cover scenario
Spatial distribution of the alternative scenario apparent temperature or heat index (°C) reduction for the hottest hour of 2003 in each city, with the map at a 30 m pixel resolution. This map provides a basis for understanding the variation in temperature across the neighborhoods.
