What stands out

What we found in Los Navalucillos

It comes from matching each building with its neighbourhood, its street, the nearest watercourse and its surroundings.

1

From 3 to 35 tropical nights a year

3→35 nights

In a typical building in Los Navalucillos, nights when the temperature stays at or above 20 °C would rise from 3 a year (1991-2020) to about 35 by 2050. For this reason, 10 % of homes would be at a high or very high level.

Median of the buildings. Intermediate-to-high emissions scenario (SSP3-7.0).

2

285 homes at very high wildfire risk

445 buildings

These are 445 buildings right next to vegetation that can burn. Almost all are houses (444), on the edges of the town and in housing estates.

Proximity to woodland and to burnt areas (ESA WorldCover, EFFIS). It does not measure the state of the vegetation or any firebreaks.

3

Where there are fewer trees, 1,5 °C hotter

1,5 °C

Around homes with between 2 and 5 % tree cover, the surface in summer is 0,4 °C above the median for Los Navalucillos; with more than 40 % tree cover, 1,1 °C below. 7 homes are in surroundings with almost no trees.

Ground surface temperature (Landsat), not air temperature. More trees usually go with less asphalt and lower density: this is a correlation, not a measure of the effect of planting trees.

4

52 in every 100 buildings were built before 1980

52 %

They were built before the first thermal insulation standard (1979). With 35 tropical nights a year by 2050, they will hold the most heat at night and have the most to gain from a retrofit.

What can be done

For the town council and for residents

For the town council and its technical staff

  • Climate shelters, and late-afternoon and evening opening hours at libraries and community centres in the areas with the most tropical nights.
  • Review with the river basin authority the watercourses with no official mapping that run next to homes, and keep them clear.
  • Firebreaks and evacuation routes in the streets that border woodland.
  • Download the tables by area, neighbourhood, street and watercourse (Data tab) to cross-check them with urban planning.

For residents

  • Air your home in the early hours, shade west-facing walls from the sun and ask about grants to insulate the roof.
  • If you live on a ground floor or have a garage next to a watercourse, have a plan: where to go upstairs, what to switch off and how to hear about warnings.
  • Keep the strip around your house clear of dry vegetation and know both ways out of your street.
  • Look up your building: the free report gives its level for each hazard, and the Climate Note gives the full detail.
