Cities in the Sahel are heavily impacted by heat stress. Climate change, growing population rates and urbanization will increase the magnitude and intensity of urban heat stress towards the future. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the current status of heat stress in Niamey (Niger) and future impacts by combining the results of two models operating at city‐level: UrbClim which simulates...
UrbClim, the urban climate model, is used for short- and long-term projections of climate for Delhi. The projections are performed for RCP8.5 using an ensemble of 11 GCM model outputs. Various heat stress indices were employed to understand the role of urban heat island (UHI) in influencing the present and future urban climate of the city. UHI intensity based on 5% warmest nights (TNp95) was 4.1 °C...
