However, the relationship between water body characteristics and cooling effect of urban park remains underexplored. This study utilizes Landsat 8 OLI_TIRS imagery from 28 urban parks in Jiangsu, China, applying buffer analysis and random forest regression to evaluate the cooling effects of water bodies based on their coverage and complexity. The key findings are as follows: (1) For every 0.1 increase in water body shape index in urban parks, the cooling area increases by 3.746 ha; (2) larger water body coverage enhances cooling, but the cumulative cooling efficiency decreases beyond a certain threshold; (3) from a cost-effectiveness perspective, there exists an optimal threshold value of capacity (TVoC) for water bodies in urban parks to alleviate the UHI, which is influenced by the coverage and complexity of urban parks; (4) for every 1 ha increase in urban park area raises the TVoC by 0.017 ha, and every 0.1 increase in urban park shape index raises the TVoC by 0.117 ha. Based on these findings, we recommend that urban planners, when renovating urban parks, adjust the size of water bodies to approach the optimal TVoC, enriching the shapes of water bodies, and integrating urban parks with blue-green infrastructure. These insights are crucial for enhancing the cooling effect of urban parks and promoting sustainable urban renewal.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48626,"journal":{"name":"Urban Climate","volume":"59 ","pages":"Article 102301"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143072653","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The second stage uses another CNN to reconstruct small-scale flows between buildings from the output of the first stage, resulting in high-resolution inferences. The CNNs are trained using high-resolution simulation data for the second stage and their coarse-grained version for the first stage as the ground truth, where the high-resolution simulations are conducted independently of the low-resolution simulations used as input. This learning approach separates the spatial scales of inference in each stage. The effectiveness of the proposed method was evaluated using micrometeorological simulations in an actual urban area around Tokyo Station in Japan. The super-resolution simulation successfully inferred high-resolution atmospheric flows, reducing errors by approximately 50 % compared to the low-resolution simulations. Furthermore, the two-stage approach enabled localized high-resolution inferences, reducing GPU memory usage to as low as 12 % during training.

Three indexes (RX1Day, RX5Day, and R99p) were utilized to define extreme events, and non-parametric tests were employed to discover patterns in frequency and magnitude. The findings suggest that high altitudes, such as Serra do Mar and the Coastal Massifs, raise the extreme rainfall thresholds (R99p) and concentrate heavy precipitation to windward during concentrated (RX1Day) and persistent (RX5Day) events. The results also revealed changes in the pattern of extreme variability over the previous two decades, with an increase in outliers and the yearly amplitude and median of concentrated and persistent events (Rx1Day and Rx5Day). Despite having a lower frequency than January and March, April showed the most considerable variability for concentrated and persistent occurrences.

The results show that DPEPs significantly enhance urban carbon emission efficiency, and compared to the single-pilot policy, DPEPs exhibit a more pronounced policy effect. These findings hold robust after multiple robustness checks. Mechanism analysis reveals that DPEPs improve urban carbon emission efficiency by optimizing industrial structure, enhancing energy efficiency, and promoting regional technological advancement. Heterogeneity analysis shows that the synergistic effect of DPEPs is related to geographical location, industrialization and economic level, with policy effects being more pronounced in cities located in the central and western regions and highly industrialized and economic development cities. In further analysis, this paper employs the spatial DID model to evaluate the spatial spillover effects of DPEPs, finding that the implementation of DPEPs significantly boosts the carbon emission efficiency of surrounding areas.
