Statistics of the variation rates of mean LSTs in urban regions that significantly changed in the whole year and four seasons during the daytime and night-time from 2003 to 2013 in the five environmental regions of China (A–E represent the mean comparison results among regions, using nonparametric tests of k independent samples; significant differences only existed in rural LSTs among the five environmental regions when the label letters were the same).
