Socio-Economic Factors Drive Urban Heat Vulnerability in Spain
Original: Socio-Economic Factors Drive Urban Heat Vulnerability Across Diverse Regional Spanish Climates
New research indicates that socio-economic conditions, not just climate, determine how vulnerable Spanish cities are to extreme urban heat. Across Spain's diverse regional climates, poorer neighbourhoods face greater heat risks due to factors such as housing quality, green space access and income levels. The findings highlight that heat exposure is unevenly distributed, raising questions about urban planning and equity in adapting Spanish cities to rising temperatures.
Why now: Heatwaves and urban heat risk are a growing public concern in Spain amid rising temperatures.
