THE IMPACT OF URBAN VEGETATION ON MICROCLIMATE IN ENVIRONMENT OF NITRA CITY

Observation of microclimate in urban environment is nowadays current topic which links up several fields of science. Measurments, analysis and proposals are the tools for effective solutions of negative impact of climate changes. Rising urbanisation and rising proportion of hard surfaces as active surfaces with transformation of solar energy on thermal energy is alarming. Our study is dedicated to evaluation of microclimatic conditions of two types of junction in central zone of Nitra . On junction Dlha ulica was recorded tumbled type of build up area with vegetation. On junction– Stefanikova ulica was recorded dense type of build up area without vegetation. The legwork was performed in the spring period 2014 during the three days in May in following time – 10:30, 15:30. These days were chosen depending on optimal conditions of weather - total of solar radiation 80%, anticyclone, without rainfall, average velocity of air to 2m/s. Measurements was evaluated in Statistica 7.
