The continual presence of a strong urban heat island in Newark provides a good example of human-induced modification to the atmosphere and climate. Not only must we consider the impacts of PM on visibility and climate change, but it is also important for scientists and the public to be aware...
For instance, in 2010 the US Census Bureau estimated the density of the New York Metropolitan Statistical area (New York–Newark–Bridgeport, NY, NJ, CT, PA) was 1085 people/km2, that of the New York City urbanized area was 2053 people/km2, while specific neighbourhoods (US census blocks...
On Tuesday, the temperature hit 103 degrees in New York City and 102 in Philadelphia, soared past the century mark in Boston, Washington, D.C., and Newark, N.J., and broke records in Providence, R.I., and Hartford, Conn. The heat-island effect occurs because cities, with their numero...

Not only must we consider the impacts of PM on visibility and climate change, but it is also important for scientists and the public to be aware of an amplified health risk from airborne particulates during the presence of an urban heat island.Abstract Summertime urban heat Island in Newark...

Particular meteorological conditions—including high temperature, low cloud cover, and low average wind speed—tend to intensify the heat island effect. Analyses of existing archived climate data for the vicinities of Newark and Camden, New Jersey indicate urban to suburban/rural temperature differences...
