GIS/ research in mapping urban climate and energy effects - English
URL: http://www.urbanclimate.org/wwwboard/messages/5.html

Within our Berlin environmental Atlas we have published different maps to describe the urban climate situation in our city. One of our very new efforts in the field of the global climate change discussion is to gather all relevant data of the various CO2-emission sources in the city so to support a very detailed CO2-cataster (on the level of the single built-up areas) in the city. This should be the beginning of a CO2- monitoring in Berlin. Who does know any other efforts in this field in metropolitean ares, which are just published or under construction. We are interested in a comparision of the data basis, methods etc.

The latter lead to biochemical, epidemiological and psychological responses in the urban dwellers. The debate over the relative importance of social vs. physical environmental factors on these responses is not yet settled.
