Identification of the Urban Dry Islands Effect in Beijing: Evidence from Satellite and Ground Observations

Urbanization may exert a strong influence on both near-surface and atmospheric moisture. However, studies on the effect of urbanization on atmospheric moisture using remotely sensed observations have been infrequently conducted. To fill this research gap, we used remotely sensed and station-based ob...
