水平也已确定。在城市热岛上方的热低压处，风的辐合可以导致城市正上方或顺风处的局部降水。全球城市气候学（GUC）被认为是城市气候学的一个分支。GUC的主要重点是统一理解全球所有城市的城市气候。通过利用全球适用的方法来量化和比较具有不同背景的城市的城市热岛，包括其地理，气候，社会人口和其他因素，可以建立对形成这种现象的机制的普遍理解。GUC的实施涉及使用全球获取的历史观测网络、气候模型的网格气象参数、全球地理信息系统数据集、分布式城市参数数据库的建设以及城市气候建模所需技术的开发。在这里，GUC的概念，通过GUC评估可以进行的途径，目前的实施情况进行了讨论，连同其应用的一些例子。
level have also been identified. The convergence of winds at thermal lows above an UHI can lead to local precipitation directly above cities or downwind Global urban climatology (GUC) is proposed as a subfield of urban climatology. The main focus of GUC is uniform understanding of urban climates across all cities, globally. By utilizing globally applicable methodologies to quantify and compare urban heat islands of cities with diverse backgrounds, including their geography, climate, socio-demography, and other factors, a universal understanding of the mechanisms underlying the formation of the phenomenon can be established. The implementation of GUC involves the use of globally acquired historical observation networks, gridded meteorological parameters from climate models, global geographic information system datasets, the construction of a distributed urban parameter database, and the development of techniques necessary to model the urban climate. Here, the GUC concept, the pathways through which GUC assessments can be undertaken, and current implementations are discussed together with some examples of its application.
