Dado el contexto del cambio climático, es imperativo realizar investigaciones sistemáticas sobre la relación entre la Isla de Calor Urbano (ICU) y los factores meteorológicos. En este estudio se analizaron los datos horarios de dos estaciones meteorológicas de la ciudad de Córdoba entre enero de 2018 y diciembre de 2022. Los resultados confirman la presencia de un efecto ICU nocturno, que ocurre pocas horas después del atardecer, con una intensidad de 3,5 a 4 °C en todas las estaciones, y que puede superar los 6 °C en la estación seca. También se detectó el efecto de Isla Fría Urbana diurna, con intensidades que oscilan entre -0,3 y -0,7 °C. La lluvia y el viento desempeñan un papel importante en la mitigación del efecto ICU en la ciudad. Los resultados de este estudio ayudarán a la ciudad de Córdoba a prepararse para el aumento de la demanda energética durante el verano, así como establecer refugios térmicos para períodos de olas de calor o de temperaturas extremas.
