TL;DR: The aim of the comparison overall is to understand the complexity required to model energy and water exchanges in urban areas and to identify those modeling approaches that minimize the errors in the simulated fluxes of the urban energy balance.

TL;DR: In this paper, the first results of Phase 2 from an international comparison project to evaluate 32 urban land surface schemes are presented, which is the first large-scale systematic evaluation of these models.
Complete urban surface temperatures
James A. Voogt,Timothy R. Oke +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an observation program using ground and airborne thermal infrared radiometers is used to estimate the surface temperature of urban areas, taking into account the total active surface area, which is called the complete urban surface temperature.
