Section of Urban Climatology The activity of the urban climatology in Stuttgart has a long tradition. In the year 1938 the municipal council decided to employ a meteorologist, to investigate the special urban climate of Stuttgart and the connection to town planning. Since that time urban climate is a very important factor for town planning in Stuttgart.

The global climate change increases the importance of Urban Climatology.
