Overview of deviations in mean radiant temperature between simulations and observations in other studies concerning root-mean-square deviation (RMSD), mean deviation (MD), mean absolute deviation (MAD), and coefficient of determination (). Standard deviations (±) are stated, if more than one analysis is performed per study.
