Generalized Scaling of Urban Heat Island Effect and Its Applications for Energy Consumption and Renewable Energy by T.-W. Lee, Heung S. Choi, Jinoh Lee

“…However, in this work, we show that if the population density is used in converting the population data into urbanized area, then a good agreement with the current theory is found. An additional parameter is the “urban flow parameter,” which depends on the urban building characteristics and affects the horizontal convection of heat due to wind. …”
