Urbanization Effect on Trends of Extreme Temperature Indices of National Stations over Mainland China, 1961–2008
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: nderstanding the long-term change of extreme temperature events is important to the detection and attribution of climate change. It is unclear, however, how much effect urbanization has had on trends of the extreme temperature ...
Recent Surface Air Temperature Change over Mainland China Based on an Urbanization-Bias Adjusted Dataset
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA dataset from 763 national Reference Climate and Basic Meteorological Stations (RCBMS) was used to analyze surface air temperature (SAT) change in mainland China. The monthly historical observational records had ...
Urbanization Effects on Observed Surface Air Temperature Trends in North China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A dataset of 282 meteorological stations including all of the ordinary and national basic/reference surface stations of north China is used to analyze the urbanization effect on surface air temperature trends. These stations ...
An Integrated Procedure to Determine a Reference Station Network for Evaluating and Adjusting Urban Bias in Surface Air Temperature Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: rends in surface air temperature (SAT) are a critical indicator for climate change at varied spatial scales. Because of urbanization effects, however, the current SAT records of many urban stations can hardly meet the ...
