Running a dense air temperature measurement field campaign at the urban neighbourhood level: Protocol and lessons learned
2022
Kraemer, Roland | Remmler, Paul | Bumberger, Jan | Kabisch, Nadja
The cooling capacity of urban green spaces constitutes a key measure for cities to mitigate heat events, which is gaining importance in climate change adaptation and mitigation. In this protocol article, we present details on two field campaigns aiming at collecting dense air temperature data in two urban inner city parks in Leipzig, Germany, under unprecedented heat and drought conditions. We introduce all the steps required to plan and conduct qualified fieldwork in environmental research, including study design, technical and logistical preparations, on-site work and data management steps from data acquisition, transfer into research outcomes to dissemination. We further share valuable lessons learned before, during and after fieldwork that helped us improve our work and that could support and improve similar future project campaigns.
