Fig. 7: Annual and seasonal mean urban heat island (UHI) intensity.

Shown for minimum (a) and maximum (b) temperatures for selected cities (rows), as simulated by CORDEX-CORE models (REMO, RegCM) and compared with available observations. Cities are grouped alphabetically by geographic setting: coastal cities are shown in the top rows and inland cities in the bottom rows. Within each group, cities located in complex terrain appear first. For cities with simulations available at multiple resolutions (EUR-11, EUR-22), results are presented in contiguous rows for comparison.
