このコンテンツについて
Dr Yi Yin, a research scientist from the California Institute of Technology, explains how she uses satellite data to study the uneven distribution of heat distribution in the city and how that reflects socioeconomic inequality.
Dr Jiachen Zhang, an Air Resources Engineer in the Mobile Source Analysis Branch at the California Air Resources Board, talks about the process of using research to enlighten policy-making.
Terms mentioned
- Albedo: the proportion of light reflected from a surface (roughly, "whiteness")
- Latent heat: energy released or absorbed, by a body or a thermodynamic system, during a constant-temperature process.
- Urban heat island: a phenomenon that occurs when cities replace natural land cover with dense concentrations of pavement, buildings, and other surfaces that absorb and retain heat.
