About

Urban canopy modeling is a computational methodology used to simulate the physical processes of energy, mass, and momentum transfer within the urban canopy layer. This research approach investigates how urban morphology and surface properties interact with the atmosphere to influence local environmental conditions, providing insights into urban climate phenomena such as the urban heat island effect and air quality dynamics.
