bstract: Air and surface freezing and thawing indexes and prediction of round temperatures from air temperatures were investigated. A new method for pplying n factors on a daily basis to capture localized temperature extremes is resented and compared to conventional seasonal n-factor analysis. Measured air emperatures from five locations and measured air and surface temperatures from ne locatio...

vegetation cover on a variety of different land uses in different parts of a city creates different forms of heat flow that this, in turn, generates the main framework of urban microclimate. the objective of this study is to survey the effect of land cover type on air temperature in the isfahan city. to do this, five regions in the isfahan city with different land cover type were selected. in e...

This study provides a comprehensive overview of the temperature and zonal wind biases in eight reanalysis data products, with a focus on stratospheric levels. The study identifies biases in each reanalysis from the “reanalysis mean” (defined as the mean of the MERRA, ERA-Interim, and JRA-55 reanalyses). It then examines reanalysis temperature biases with respect to HIRDLS (an independent satell...

After considering the observed long-term trends in average monthly temperatures distribution in Moscow, the authors evaluated how acute mortality responded to changes in daily average, minimum and maximum temperatures throughout the year, and identified vulnerable population groups, by age and causes of death. A plot of the basic mortality-temperature relationship indicated that this relationsh...

We have used thermistor/data logger assemblies to measure temperatures in the brain, carotid artery, jugular vein and abdominal cavity, and subcutaneously, in five pronghorn antelope over a summer in Wyoming. Globe and air temperature varied by up to approximately 50 degrees C daily during the summer and maximum solar radiation was approximately 900 W m(-2). Brain temperature (38.9+/-0.3 degree...
