Abstract: The spatial and temporal structure of the urban heat island in Seoul, Korea, is investigated using near-surface temperature data measured at 31 automatic weather stations (AWSs) in the Seoul metropolitan area for the 1-yr ...

Abstract: The maximum urban heat island (UHI) intensity in Seoul, Korea, is investigated using data measured at two meteorological observatories (an urban site and a rural site) during the period of 1973?96. The average maximum UHI ...

Abstract: This study numerically investigates dry and moist convection forced by an urban heat island using a two-dimensional, nonhydrostatic, compressible model with explicit cloud microphysical processes (Advanced Regional Prediction ...

Abstract: n 2015, the sea-ice extent over the Sea of Okhotsk (Okhotsk SIE) hit a record lowest since 1979 during February-March, in which the sea-ice extent generally reaches annual maximum. To quantify the role of anthropogenic ...

Abstract: AbstractObserved long-term variations in summer season timing and length in the Northern Hemisphere (NH) continents and their subregions were analyzed using temperature-based indices. The climatological mean showed ...
