The adverse effect of UHI has been widely documented in the literature. For example, it increases temperature of cities; contributes to global warming (EPA, 2016); initiates storms/precipitation events (Bornstein and Lin, 2000; Dixon and Mote, 2003); increases energy demand of cities (...
Perhaps the worst result of the heat island effect is the number of heat-related deaths. Although damage-causing storms get the most media attention, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reports that extreme heat kills more Americans each year than tornadoes, hurricanes, floods and lig...

Cities are particularly vulnerable to heat waves, due to the urban heat island effect4,5,6. In addition to human health, heat waves can negatively impact the energy sector (additional air conditioning), agriculture (crop failures, increased pests, animal deaths), local ecologies (pond and lake...
allowed the researchers to detect the changes in greenness of plants and thus determine the timing when plants start to grow in spring. The data show the start of the season arrived on average six days earlier in the studied cities than surrounding rural areas due to the heat island effect....
