Urban Surface Temperature Reduction via the Urban Aerosol Direct Effect: A Remote Sensing and WRF Model Sensitivity Study

Figure 11

Sensitivity study for surface albedo effect on surface skin temperature. Alb = 0.15 is the high albedo case when surface albedo is set as 0.15, and alb = 0.10 is the low albedo case when the surface albedo is set as 0.10. The experiment area is over Beijing (39.7–40.1°N, 116.1–116.7°E). The unit of the -axis is Kelvin (K).
