Abstract

Achieving coordination and balance between climate change and social development is essential for the sustainable development of cities. This study aimed to construct a thermal vulnerability assessment framework based on residents' subjectivity and explore the optimal allocation of thermal vulnerability in Foshan City under a climate adaptation scenario aligned with the urban dynamic development model. Results showed that (1) the heat index, sky view factor, and housing price data can reveal residents’ subjectivity in coping with high-temperature pressure; (2) gradually shifting from the compact middle-rise (1.61) to open compact middle-rise (1.53) can effectively reduce thermal vulnerability; (3) the thermal vulnerability of Foshan City was significantly lower (0.92%) under the climate adaptation scenario than under the natural development state. These findings could contribute to enhancing the urban thermal vulnerability assessment framework and provide intuitive visual suggestions for building a climate-adaptive city.

建设适应气候的城市：热脆弱性优化研究

实现气候变化与社会发展的协调平衡，是实现城市可持续发展的关键。本研究旨在构建基于居民主体性的热脆弱性评价框架，探索符合城市动态发展模式的气候适应情景下佛山市热脆弱性的优化配置。结果表明：(1)高温指数、天景因子和房价数据能够揭示居民应对高温压力的主观性；(2)由密实型中高层（1.61）逐步转变为开放式密实型中高层（1.53），可有效降低热脆弱性；③气候适应情景下佛山市的热脆弱性（0.92%）显著低于自然发展状态下。这些发现有助于完善城市热脆弱性评价框架，并为建设气候适应性城市提供直观的视觉建议。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Cleaner Production is an international, transdisciplinary journal that addresses and discusses theoretical and practical Cleaner Production, Environmental, and Sustainability issues. It aims to help societies become more sustainable by focusing on the concept of 'Cleaner Production', which aims at preventing waste production and increasing efficiencies in energy, water, resources, and human capital use. The journal serves as a platform for corporations, governments, education institutions, regions, and societies to engage in discussions and research related to Cleaner Production, environmental, and sustainability practices.
