A procedure for the monitoring an urban heat island (UHI) was developed and tested over a
selected location in the Midwestern United States. Nine counties in central Indiana were …

The urban canopy of excess heat, water vapor, and roughness can affect the evolution of
weather systems, as can land vegetative processes. High‐resolution simulations were …

Urban climate models can predict the environmental impacts of urban development by
simulating the exchange processes between the atmosphere and urban surfaces. A …

Results are presented from a study designed to evaluate the impact upon urban area
transport and dispersion (T&D) modeling accuracy by coupling a microscale computational …

In this study, urban climate in Nanjing of eastern China is simulated using 1-km resolution
