Sažetak
The UHI development for the ZGA was modelled with the three dimensional non-hydrostatic mesoscale model MEMO, for two different cases (9-10 June and 17-23 July 2004). The results demonstrated a successful multi-day simulation in the ZGA and a good agreement with the available observations. Moreover, it was shown that the local topography played an important role in the formation and the evolution of the UHI. However, further improvement could be achieved by the introduction of a canopy model, in order to represent the impact of urban areas on airflow in a more realistic way.
