By doing so, we successfully group cities based on their urban development levels, thereby limiting and quantifying the influence of urban development on our findings. To validate the influence of climate, cities are grouped according to their climatic zones, and separate analyses are conducted. The...
Moreover, with the warming of the earth's air due to the impact of global climate changes, smaller heat waves join together and will create more intense, bigger, and lasting heat waves. The results showed that with the decrease in latitude in this province and...
This article reviews low-temperature heat transport studies of spin-gapped quantum magnets in the last few decades. Quantum magnets with small spins and low dimensionality exhibit a variety of novel phenomena. Among them, some systems are characteristic
Split system air conditioners and heat pumps may use a remote control device to turn the equipment on or off and to set the desired temperature. You will also find some operating switches and controls on the indoor wall-mounted cooling unit air handler, for most split system cooling units ...
But beyond comparing SEER ratings, a look at the building insulation, air leakage, and the layout, insulation, and adequacy of the air conditioning duct system are likely to have a very large, usually determining effect, on the operating cost of air conditioning systems in buildings. ...
For the ground source heat pump (GSHP) used as a heating system in regions with cold climate the thermal effects of ground moisture freezing-melting processes can make an essential long-term impact on GSHP performance. However, widely known models of heat transfer inside and outside GSHP ...
the ocean heat content (OHC). Steric sea-level and OHC changes play an important role in many fundamental and applied problems in climate science, including sea-level and coastal hazards studies, physical oceanography, and in determining the Earth Energy Imbalance and the Equilibrium Climate Sensitiv...
However, the unavailability of direct LST measurements at the same scale hinders a detailed understanding of the interactions and feedbacks between LST and surface-atmosphere exchange processes, which is of utmost importance to the climate modeling community8. Inversion of the longwave radiation in ...
More than half of the world’s population currently live in urban areas and are particularly at risk from the combined effects of the urban heat island phenomenon and heat increases due to climate change. Here, by using remotely sensed surface temperature data and social-ecological indicators, foc...
