Climate, and especially cities with hot climatic conditions, directly impact human life. In this study, hourly datasets from the central meteorological station in Diyarbakır city center for the years 1990–2022 were utilized. These data were analyzed using RayMan Pro-2.1 software, and Physiological Equivalent Temperature values were derived. The obtained Physiological Equivalent Temperature values were analyzed using the SARIMAX model implemented on a machine learning infrastructure to uncover the changes between 2022 and 2050. According to the results obtained, the Physiological Equivalent Temperature value, which was 15.42 °C in 1990 in real terms, increased by 21.3% to 18.66 °C in 2022. According to the SARIMAX model predictions, Physiological Equivalent Temperature values in 2022 are estimated to rise to 21.42 °C by 2050, reflecting an increase of 14.79%. The aim of this study is to examine the temporal variations in human bioclimatic comfort values and provide a foundation for future predictions. This will contribute to the development of urban master plans by local and administrative authorities.
In this study, daily reference evapotranspiration (ET0) values for the period 2025–2030 for Lake Burdur, located in the Mediterranean climate zone and within the Burdur closed basin, were estimated using nested architecture focused on high accuracy. The ET0 target corresponds to…
Aerosol optical depth (AOD) is essential for air quality monitoring and climate research. However, satellite-based retrievals suffer from cloud-related data gaps, and reanalysis products are limited by coarse spatial resolution and substantial production latency. This study devel…
Climate change has intensified the frequency and severity of heatwaves globally, posing significant public health risks, particularly in Mediterranean countries such as Greece, where rising temperatures coincide with vulnerable aging populations. This study develops a machine lea…
The Latin American Giant Observatory (LAGO) is a ground-based extended cosmic rays observatory designed to study transient astrophysical events, the role of the atmosphere on the formation of secondary particles, and space-weather-related phenomena. With the use of a network of W…
Aerosol–cloud–precipitation interactions (ACI) are a known major cause of uncertainties in simulations of the future climate. An improved understanding of the in-cloud processes accompanying ACI could help in advancing their implementation in global climate models. This is especi…
Commercially available low-cost air quality sensors have low accuracy. The improved accuracy of low-cost PM2.5 sensors allows the use of low-cost sensor systems to reasonably investigate PM2.5 emissions from industrial activities or to accurately estimate individual exposure to P…
