  • Layer description: This data is part of the climate analysis map of Luxembourg. Shown is the bioclimatic situation in settlement and traffic areas (load area). The subject of the evaluation is the summertime human bioclimatic stress situation in the impact area at night. The higher the load, the greater the need for proactive adaptation measures. Explanation: The present geodata are taken from the regional climate analysis of Luxembourg (GEO-NET & LIST 2021) which was published with the report “KLIMAÖKOLOGISCHE SITUATION IN LUXEMBURG - Modellbasierte regionale Klimaanalyse / (La situation au Luxembourg en matière d’écologie climatique)” by the Administration for Environment.

In total, the model area is described with 8,272,693 grid cells, with information on terrain height, land use, structural height and degree of sealing stored for each grid cell. The urban climate model FITNAH-3D according to Groß (1992) forms the basic framework for the modelling. The input data and model results are based on a horizontal spatial resolution of 25 m x 25 m. The model results are presented in maps. The model results are presented in cartographic representations of the nocturnal temperature field, the nocturnal cold air flow field (4 a.m. in each case) and the thermal load during the day (2 p.m.) and concretised in the form of a climate analysis map. The main product of the work process is a planning recommendation map with an associated catalogue of measures. On the one hand, the map makes visible the graduated need for action to improve thermal comfort in summer in all living/working and recreational areas (“load area”) of the population in Luxembourg.

  • Layer description: This data is part of the climate analysis map of Luxembourg. Shown is the special function of (potentially) public green spaces and forests. Due to their effect as a cooling island during the day, forests are of particular climatic-ecological importance even if they are not part of a cold air system at night. Furthermore, public green spaces can serve as important retreats for the population, especially during the day. If possible, publicly accessible green spaces should have a high level of microclimate diversity and/or a high proportion of trees so that they can develop their bioclimatic favourable effect during the day in the best possible way.

  • Layer description: These climate parameters are part of the climate analysis for Luxembourg. The heat load PET (Physiological Equivalent Temperature) during the day (2 p.m.) is shown, which describes the “felt temperature”. The PET (Physiologically Equivalent Temperature) is a human bioclimatic index for characterising the heat load of humans, which combines statements on air temperature, humidity, wind speed and short- and long-wave radiation flows and is derived from a heat balance model. The PET has the unit [°C] and refers to a height of 1.1 m above ground (centre of gravity of the human body) and to the situation at 2 p.m. during a low-exchange radiation weather situation in summer.

  • Layer description: This data is part of the climate analysis map of Luxembourg. Shown is the bioclimatic importance of green and open spaces (Compensation area). The subject of the assessment is the importance of green and open spaces in terms of the cold air balance in summer for relieving the impact area at night. The greater the importance, the greater the sensitivity of the area to intensification of use - especially construction - and therefore the greater its need for protection.

  • Layer description: Cold air production areas are an element of the climate analysis map Luxembourg. They identify green areas with a particularly high cold air production rate and feed the various cold air flows or in some cases even extend beyond them. Green areas were marked as cold air production areas if they produce at least 19 m³/m²h of cold air. The limit corresponds to the mean value of the cold air production rate of all Luxembourg green spaces (related to the situation at 4 a.m., 2 m above sea level).

  • Layer description: This layer shows the approximate wind direction in cold air corridors by means of the arrowhead. Cold air corridors are linear structures that connect cold air production areas (compensation areas) and impact areas (load areas) and represent an elementary component of air exchange. They are spatially limited in their width, but at least 50 m wide (Mayer et al. 1994) and are oriented towards the loaded settlement area. Luxembourg's cold air corridors are characterised by a near-ground flow velocity of mostly over 0.3 m/s or an above-average cold air volume flow density of over 16 m³/(s*m). In addition, they have a high proportion of vegetation, so that the air does not warm up significantly during transport and sufficient cold air can be carried into the city.
