Delhi leads top south Asian cities in night temperature rise with a 2 degrees Celsius spike in last 23 years
Surat and Ahmedabad have experienced a rise in night temperatures of 1.94 degrees and 1.9 degrees Celsius, respectively, from 2000 to 2023. This rise in temperatures is attributed to the surface urban heat island effect, which causes cities to become warmer than their surrounding areas. The increase in night temperatures in Surat and Ahmedabad is the second and third highest among 20 cities in the study. The trapped heat in the urban environment has also led to the SUHI effect, with Ahmedabad having the second highest value after Jaipur. The study highlights the need for mitigating measures and improved urban planning to address these temperature changes.
