Unifying the Scaling of Urban Heat Island With Surface Heat Flux Under Calm Conditions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract How the urban heat island effect (UHI) responds to surface heat flux is a central question in urban climate research. Previous studies have reported two distinct scaling relations: nighttime UHI scales with heat flux to the one‐third power, while daytime UHI scales with heat flux to the two‐thirds power.

Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy in the Treatment of Diabetic Foot Ulcers: A Pilot Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesJournal of Biophotonics, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
This randomized pilot study evaluated photodynamic therapy as an adjunctive treatment for diabetic foot ulcers compared with conventional care. The findings demonstrated a greater reduction in lesion area in the intervention group and potential benefits in the microbiological profile of the wounds, suggesting the clinical relevance and therapeutic ...

Diurnal Air–Surface Temperature Dynamics in Hong Kong: An Analysis Across Land Use and Climate Zones

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 6, May 2026.
Daytime and nighttime air temperature (T a) from automatic weather stations and land surface temperature (T s) derived from ASTER and Landsat 8–9 are used to examine the relationship between T a and T s. The spatial and statistical characteristics of T a − T s dynamics are further analysed across land use (LU) and local climate zones (LCZ).

The Experience of an Intermediary in a Complex Initiative: The Urban Health Initiative's National Program Office [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Why would a foundation use an intermediary to manage a multi-site initative? What are the important aspects of the relationships among a foundation, intermediary and local sites?

Climate Change Attribution Using Empirical Decomposition of Climatic Data

open access: yes, 2011
The climate change attribution problem is addressed using empirical decomposition. Cycles in solar motion and activity of 60 and 20 years were used to develop an empirical model of Earth temperature variations.

Site‐Engineered Corundum‐Structured Aesthetic Composites for Alleviating Heat Accumulation to Mitigate Urban Heat Islands

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban heat islands have become a global issue, as they severely impact several key factors, including elevated energy consumption, increased air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, compromised human health and comfort, and reduced water quality.

Impact of Extreme Heat on Emergency Department Admissions for Childhood and Adult Asthma: An Evaluation of Earth Observations and Heat Wave Definitions

open access: yesGeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Extreme heat has been associated with adverse health outcomes, yet its impact on asthma exacerbations remains understudied. This is, in part, due to data limitations: research that relies on weather station records and aggregated health statistics cannot resolve fine‐scale differences in heat impacts.
