Journal Article
Lam, C. K. C., Shooshtarian, S., & Kenawy, I. (2023). Assessment of urban physical features on summer thermal perceptions using the local climate zone classification. Building and Environment, 236, Article 110265. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.buildenv.2023.110265

Urbanisation has changed local meteorological conditions worldwide. The physical features of outdoor spaces are critical in determining outdoor thermal comfort through changes in meteorological parameters. Past studies comparing subjective thermal pe...

Journal Article
Kantamaneni, K., Li, Q., Wu, H., Zhu, M., Apostolopoulou, A., Xu, W., …Pushparaj, R. R. B. (2023). Towards a Combined Physical and Social Evaluation of Climate Vulnerability in Coastal Urban Megacities. Water, 15(4), Article 712. https://doi.org/10.3390/w15040712

Coastal urban megacities across Asia face significant risks from climate change, including coastal flooding, high temperatures, urban heat island impacts and air pollution. These hazards are associated with negative impacts on infrastructure, communi... Read More about Towards a Combined Physical and Social Evaluation of Climate Vulnerability in Coastal Urban Megacities.
