The lab studies urban hydrometeorology, examining the relationship between urban environments and human health.

AboutAbout the lab
Aiming to create safe and comfortable urban spaces.
The Nakayoshi Lab investigates the relationships among urban form, the atmospheric environment, and human health, with the aim of creating safe and comfortable urban spaces.
There are concerns that as urbanization advances, environmental problems such as air pollution, urban heat islands, and heavy rainfall will worsen.
The lab uses observation, experiments, and numerical simulation, and sometimes builds its own measuring instruments, to capture the essence of the phenomena.
Its research fields are urban hydrometeorology and thermal physiology.
Key terms
- Urban heat island
- A phenomenon in which temperatures in a city are higher than in the surrounding areas. It is one of the environmental problems that accompany urbanization.
- Urban hydrometeorology
- A field that deals with water movement and weather in urban areas.
- Thermal physiology
- A field that deals with how the human body responds to heat and cold.
ResearchResearch themes
With the aim of creating safe and comfortable urban spaces, the lab investigates the links among urban form, the atmospheric environment, and human health. Its research themes include the impact of cities on present and future climate and mitigation measures, as well as the development of wearable environmental and physiological measurement devices and their use in evaluating urban environments and health.
