UMEP (Urban Multi-scale Environmental Predictor), a city-based climate service tool, combines models and tools essential for simulations. Applications are presented to illustrate UMEP's potential in the identification of heat waves cold waves; impact green infrastructure on runoff; effects buildings human thermal stress; solar energy production; activities emissions. has broad utility applications related outdoor comfort, wind, urban consumption change mitigation. It includes enable users...
ABSTRACT In this study, we investigated changes in the precipitation characteristics for China from 1960 to 2012 based on a recent daily dataset of 666 climate stations and robust non‐parametric trend detection techniques. We divided all events into four non‐overlapping categories: light, moderate, heavy very percentile thresholds. then established trends annual total different intensity categories, examined their regional seasonal variations. The results show that there was little change...
Abstract Observations of atmospheric conditions and processes in cities are fundamental to understanding the interactions between urban surface weather/climate, improving performance weather, air quality, climate models, providing key information for city end users (e.g., decision makers, stakeholders, public). In this paper, Shanghai’s Urban Integrated Meteorological Observation Network (SUIMON) some examples intended applications introduced. Its characteristics include being multipurpose...
Abstract The Surface Urban Energy and Water Balance Scheme (SUEWS) is used to investigate the impact of anthropogenic heat flux QF irrigation on surface energy balance partitioning in a central business district Shanghai. Diurnal profiles are carefully derived based city-specific hourly electricity consumption data, traffic dynamic population density. estimated be largest summer (mean daily peak 236 W m−2). When omitted, SUEWS sensible QH reproduces observed diurnal pattern generally well,...
ABSTRACT The observed surface energy balance fluxes are essential to improve model forecasting ability but such data scarce for subtropical cities and urban areas with tall buildings. One year of eddy covariance flux an area within Shanghai a wide range building heights (8–150 m, mean by direction) analysed wind direction. Consideration is given how distinguish between local‐ micro‐scale fluxes. At the local‐scale, median daily peaks sensible heat occur in early afternoon (winter: 87 W m −2...
Abstract Radiative fluxes are key drivers of surface–atmosphere heat exchanges in cities. Here the first yearlong (December 2012–November 2013) measurements full radiation balance for a dense urban site Shanghai, China, presented, collected with CNR4 net radiometer mounted 80 m above ground. Clear-sky incoming shortwave K ↓ (median daytime maxima) ranges from 575 W −2 winter to 875 spring, cloud cover reducing daily maxima by about 160 . The median longwave 305 and 468 summer, respectively,...
Satellite-based rainfall products have extensive applications in global change studies, but they are known to contain deviations that require comprehensive verification at different scales. In this paper, we evaluated the accuracies of two high-resolution satellite-based products: Tropical Rainfall Measurement Mission (TRMM) product 3B42V7 and Climate Prediction Center morphing (CMORPH) technique from January 2010 December 2011 Shanghai, by using categorical metrics (Probability Detection,...

Abstract To investigate the boundary layer dynamics of coastal megacity Shanghai, China, backscatter data measured by a Vaisala CL51 ceilometer are analyzed with modified ideal curve fitting algorithm. The height z i retrieved this method and from radiosondes compare reasonably overall. Analyses mobile stationary provide spatial temporal characteristics Shanghai’s height. consistency between when is moving highlights potential observations transects across cities. An analysis 16 months at...
The aim of this study was to perform an exposure assessment PM2.5 (particulate matter less than 2.5μm in aerodynamic diameter) among children and explore the potential sources from both indoor outdoor environments.In terms real-time measurements PM2.5, we collected data 57 aged 8-12 years (9.64 ± 0.93 years) two schools Shanghai, China. Simultaneously, questionnaire surveys time-activity diaries were used estimate environment at home daily patterns order dose these children. Principle...
Abstract The effects of wind direction on variations in friction velocity with speed are studied under moderate (≥9 m/s) to strong (≥22 onshore conditions using 20‐Hz ultrasonic data from a coastal tower at three different heights. averaging time intervals 20, 10, 2, and 1 min the also investigated. Three typhoons passed by during 150 hr observations. Regardless direction, increases increasing speed, linear regression shows that rate increase is ~50% less than previously reported. However,...
Abstract In this study, the potential future changes of mean and extreme precipitation in middle lower Yangtze River basin (MLYRB), eastern China, are assessed using models phase 5 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5). Historical model simulations first compared with observations order to evaluate performance. general, simulate frequency better than intensity extremes, but still have difficulty capturing patterns over complex terrains. They tend overestimate mean, frequency, while...
