Generalized Scaling of Urban Heat Island Effect and Its Applications for Energy Consumption and Renewable Energy

Advances in Meteorology, 2014
In previous work from this laboratory, it has been found that the urban heat island intensity (UHI) can be scaled with the urban length scale and the wind speed, through the time-dependent energy balance.
