Abstract
  • Urban settlements bring about variations of the local meteorological characteristics. One of the most important effects is the increase of the temperature in urban areas in comparison with the neighbouring rural environment. This phenomenon is known as urban heat island. This work presents the results of a research activity carried out by researchers of the CNR LARA (Laboratorio Aereo Ricerche Ambientali - Airborne Laboratory for Environmental Research). This work presents the results of a research aimed at the study of the territory of Rome and its neighbouring areas by means of remote sensing techniques and analysis method in the thermal infrared. Landstat TM remotely sensed data will be analyzed in the first phase and MIVIS (Multispectral Infrared Visible Imaging Spectrometer) data in the second phase, while in the third phase the results obtained from investigations on covering materials will be described. Finally, this paper reports some comments on the thermal behaviour of materials, with particular reference to the study of the thermal anomalies highlighted by visualizing the distribution of temperatures at ground; it is then shown that these anomalies correspond to wide areas made impermeable due to the presence of asphalt and cement. Knowing the thermal response of building materials to sun radiation and studying the interactions with the atmosphere will help in finding solutions to improve their thermal efficiency and consequently to mitigate partially at least the phenomenon of heat islands.
