    Thermal environment of playgrounds in Czech cities: an example of applied measurement campaign in urban areas

  • Original language description

    CONFERENCE: FAIRNESS 2023: The FAIRNESS Action annual conference - Conference on micrometeorological measurements Urban microclimate monitoring and agricultural meteorology for climate change. Rome, 19.09.2023-21.09.2023. ABSTRACT: Playgrounds are traditional urban spaces where children meet, play together, explore and socialize. At the same time, children are particularly vulnerable to heat stress. On that account in this case study we focus on the role of surface type and shading on the thermal exposure on playgrounds during hot summer days in cities of Brno, Olomouc and Prague. The preliminary results suggest that turf does not provide a significant reduction in thermal exposure compared to gravel, paved or rubber surfaces, however further studies are needed for various natural surfaces such as bark mulch. Trees have been in most cases confirmed to be more efficient in reducing thermal exposure than shading sails. This undergoing research can be considered as an illustrative example of the temporary measurement campaign in applied urban climate research.
