Abstract

The objective of this study is to clarify the cooling effect by the ventilation after the restoration of the river in a inland city. The meteorological observations were carried out around the Cheong-Gye Stream in Seoul city in summer, 2006 (after the restoration process).<br> The main results are summarized as follows:<br> (1) When the wind from westward along the Cheong-Gye Stream is strong, the wind flows separating into the crossing avenues toward south and north. At the same time, it supplies decrease in temperature to the crossing avenues.<br> (2) The decrease in mean temperature in hourly is confirmed to reach around 60 m as max value from the restored zone. And it is supposed that the degree of decrease in temperature is about 0.3–0.4°C as the wind velocity increase 1 m/s.<br> Therefore it is confirmed that the decrease in temperature by the ventilation exists after the restoration of the Cheong-Gye Stream. Then it is considered that a large restoration of the inner-city river is able to be effective for urban development.<br>
