RISImpacts of Urban Albedo Increase on Local Air Temperature at Daily–Annual Time Scales: Model Results and Synthesis of Previous Work
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors combine urban and soil?vegetation surface parameterization schemes with one-dimensional (1D) boundary layer mixing and radiation parameterizations to estimate the maximum impact of increased surface albedo on ...
Modeling the Thermal Effects of Artificial Turf on the Urban Environment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effects of artificial turf (AT) on the urban canopy layer energy balance, air and surface temperatures, and building cooling loads are compared to those of other common ground surface materials (asphalt, concrete, and ...
Ensemble Experiments on Numerical Weather Prediction Error and Uncertainty for a North Pacific Forecast Failure
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An intense maritime cyclone off the northwest coast of North America during 9?14 February 1999 was remarkable in the repeated inability of numerical weather prediction (NWP) models to forecast its evolution. Each day during ...
Spatially Explicit Correction of Simulated Urban Air Temperatures Using Crowdsourced Data

The Observed Effects of Utility-Scale Photovoltaics on Near-Surface Air Temperature and Energy Balance
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractUtility-scale solar power plants are a rapidly growing component of the renewable energy sector. While most agree that solar power can decrease greenhouse gas emissions, the effects of photovoltaic (PV) systems on ...
