Hourly UrbClim-HiREx simulation output for Ghent during the June 2023 heat wave: air temperature, humidity, wind speed at 100 m and meter-scale heat-stress indices. Useful for urban heat stress studies and model validation.
Basel Urban Boundary Layer Experiment, 2001–02: a year-long network of energy-balance towers across urban, suburban and rural sites, with a June–July 2002 intensive period adding a wind profiler, sodar/RASS, lidar, a street-canyon tower and four SF6 tracer releases. A reference for urban roughness-sublayer turbulence and energy balance.
