Overarching THEME

Stakeholder Inspired DR3 Framework

e1

FOCUS on URBAN HEAT WAVE as the Overarching Theme

Prior studies highlighting this need for Qatar

e1

Purdue and Kusaka group -- work on studying past heat waves for Qatar (observational and WRF modeling)

Past studies cases

How can remote sensing help improve urban heat wave mapping and prediction

how can greening infrastructure improve heat stress reduction?

What regions are vulnerable and how can local efforts help reduce need for medical intervention?

Future climate?
