Pedestrian thermal comfort mapping for evidence-based urban planning; an interdisciplinary and user-friendly mobile approach for the case study of Dresden, Germany.

In the face of climate change and increasing urbanisation, ensuring outdoor thermal comfort is becoming an increasingly crucial consideration for sustainable urban planning. However, informed decision-making is limited by the challenge of obtaining high-resolution thermal comfort data. This study introduces an interdisciplinary, low-resource, and user-friendly methodology for thermal comfort mapping, employing a self-built low-cost meteorological device for mobile climate monitoring.

Gaps and linkages between biometeorological research across the Global South: a call for new efforts to advance biometeorology in the Global South.

Biometeorology research continues to grow and accelerate in terms of productivity (papers produced, studies conducted, etc.) as well as its direct impact on society and policy. Simultaneously, the scientific community is increasingly acknowledging that research has predominantly focused on the Global North.
