| Abstract |
This study examined the effect of Gukchae-bosang Memorial Park(GBM park) and 2.28 Jung-ang Memorial Park(JAM park) located at Jung-gu, Daegu on heat island phenomenon. The changes in micro-climate environment after the development of urban parks were analyzed quantitatively to evaluate the efficiency of the parks in terms of micro-climate control. The importance and necessity of urban parks are reviewed based on the analysis, and the guidelines for eco-friendly park and town planning are suggested. In this study, the microclimate environment factors of the urban parks, such as temperature, humidity, and wind, were analyzed and examined by ENVI-met -- a three dimensional micro-climate analysis program. The micro-climate environmental changes caused by the urban parks are as follows. The temperature decreasing effects by the parks were 2.27%(JAM park) and 1.50%(GBM park), and the humidity increasing effects were 5.52%(JAM park) and 2.83%(GBM park) respectively. The significance of this study is that the changes of micro-climate environment by urban parks were analyzed quantitatively on the assumption of the past micro-climate environment. It is expected that the simulation of micro-climate changes from the results of this study helps planners develop a better plan to create more pleasant urban environment. |
