Fig. 4: Simulated hour averaged heat index in °F for DC Census tracts by building input resolution.

The No Bldg panels show heat index calculated using output from the simulation with no 3D building input. The NUDAPT panels show heat index calculated using output from the simulation containing the 3D NUDAPT 1km input. 100 m and 10 m panels show heat index calculated from the output of simulations using 100 m and 10 m 3D morphological input, respectively.
