Sažetak

This paper describes preliminary modifications to a mesoscale model to better account for urban heat-storage. The
approach involves integrating the Town Energy Budget (TEB) with the Regional Atmospheric Modelling System (RAMS). The
integrated system has been applied to the Urban Heat Island (UHI) of Rome, Italy, and the surrounding area (Lazio Region),
including the coastal area abutting the Tyrrhenian Sea. The numerical results show a significant improvement in the simulation of
the UHI of Rome compared with that obtained using the original LEAF-2 scheme incorporated in RAMS.
