Deep Learning‐Based Urban Canopy Model for Complex Building Morphologies

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Deep learning offers new methodologies and tools for meteorological modeling, yet its application in urban canopy models remains nascent. This study develops an Urban Canopy Neural Network (UCNN), a deep learning‐based urban canopy model designed for complex building morphologies. When training the UCNN, the Town Energy Balance (TEB) model was
