Urbanization altered atmospheric humidity diurnally and seasonally through ecohydrological processes in five urban agglomerations in China
The large-scale conversion of vegetated land to urban use leads to a significant reduction in evapotranspiration (ET) due to the lack of vegetation, which may aggravate urban dry island (UDI) effect. Analysis of diurnal and seasonal (e.g. growing season) variations in UDI can help us to better ident...
