Abstract Defining UHI phenomenon required and interdisciplinar approach using
both simulation models and climate data elaborations at regional and metropolitan
level. In particular the WP 3 of UHI project provided a detailed survey on the main
studies and practices to counteract urban heat islands in different European areas;
