Abstract
Aiming at mitigating urban climate issues, from the perspective of the correlation between the morphology of underlying surface and urban climate, based upon Xiamen's natural, economic and social conditions and urban development strategies, new approaches for compiling urban climate map for the coastal city in southeast Fujian province are explored. With the idea of problems-solving and cost-control, the approaches are anchored in the assessment of the differences between the theoretical value of urban climate issues distribution which are calculated with morphological zoning and corresponding observed results, therefore the main objective of climate analysis is redefined to locate areas where inappropriate constructions occur and map the city according with a hierarchy of carrying capacity of urban climate environment. Findings show that the Xiamen urban climate map produced with mentioned approaches may lay a foundation for generating customized urban design strategies along with providing quantitative analysis from urban climate research.
