Thermoregulating textiles and fibrous materials for passive radiative cooling functionality
Developing thermoregulating textiles based on passive radiative cooling strategies has recently attracted considerable attention as an emerging means of providing localised thermoregulation for wearers.

Idealized model for changes in equilibrium temperature, mixed layer depth, and boundary layer cloud over land in a doubled CO2 climate [PDF]
An idealized equilibrium model for the undisturbed partly cloudy boundary layer (BL) is used as a framework to explore the coupling of the energy, water, and carbon cycles over land in midlatitudes and show the sensitivity to the clear‐sky shortwave flux,

Accelerating vapor condensation with daytime radiative cooling [PDF]
Vapor condensation plays a crucial role in solar water-purification technologies. Conventional condensers in solar water-purification systems do not provide sufficient cooling power for vapor condensation, limiting the water production rate to $0.4 L m^{-2} hour^{-1}$.

Thermal analysis in daytime radiative cooling
Abstract Radiative cooling is a well-researched cooling technique which is based on the ability of terrestrial surfaces to dissipate heat to the cold outer space. Past research on radiative cooling mostly failed to present sub-ambient temperature under direct sun due to the limited solar reflectance and emissivity in the atmospheric ...

Urban storage heat flux variability explored using satellite, meteorological and geodata [PDF]
The storage heat flux (ΔQS) is the net flow of heat stored within a volume that may include the air, trees, buildings and ground. Given the difficulty of measurement of this important and large flux in urban areas, we explore the use of Earth Observation
