| Abstract: | The intensification of an urban heat island, and its influence on the seasonal and annual air temperature measurements of the Prague-Klementinum station, is studied through a comparison with rural stations. Urban warming in the period from 1922 to 1995 was most conspicuous in winter and in spring (0.06°C 10 yr−1), and the smallest and least significant in summer (0.01°C 10 yr−1). Since the 1960s, a stagnation in the development of the urban heat island has appeared. The degree of urban warming prior to 1922 can only be roughly determined because of the lack of a suitable set of homogeneous reference stations. The results of this study are compared with other studies analogous in character. |
