Impacts of urban microclimate on summertime sensible and latent energy demand for cooling in residential buildings of Hong Kong
TL;DR: In this article, the intensity of urban heat island (UHI) and urban moisture island (UMI) in Hong Kong, and its impacts on the sensible and latent cooling demand of residential buildings in summer were investigated.

Modelling and optimizing tree planning for urban climate in a subtropical high-density city
TL;DR: In this paper , a heat-moisture coupled model was extended by adding a new vegetation sub-model to quantify the effects of trees, and the results showed that tree species with a higher leaf area index (LAI) and larger crown had a better capability of transferring sensible heat to latent heat.

TL;DR: This observational study in Hong Kong (1961-2020) reveals significant increases in compound temperature-humidity extremes, particularly hot and wet events, driven by regional climate and urban factors, with built-up areas experiencing more frequent and intense events.

TL;DR: Investigation of a Hong Kong COVID-19 outbreak in early 2021 in four traditional Tong Lau houses with subdivided units shows that the outbreak was probably due to multiple transmission routes, i.e. by the drainage pipe spread of stack aerosols, which is enhanced by poor ventilation in the subdiv divided units.
