Journal ArticleDOI
Urban thermal environment and surface energy balance in 3D high-rise compact urban models: Scaled outdoor experiments
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the diurnal characteristics of air-surface temperatures and surface energy balance of outdoor scaled arrays under different sky conditions from October to December 2017 in Guangzhou.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article , the prevalence of vertical transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in high-rise residential buildings (HRRBs) is unique in densely populated cosmopolitan city.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-resolution regional modeling of urban moisture island: mechanisms and implications on thermal comfort
TL;DR: In this paper, the spatiotemporal variation patterns of urban heat island (UMI) in Hong Kong, a subtropical coastal city, using the fine-resolution mesoscale Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model by integrating local climate zone (LCZ) maps based on the World Urban Database and Access Portal Tools (WUDAPT).
Journal ArticleDOI
Exposure and respiratory infection risk via the short-range airborne route
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors proposed a short-range airborne infection risk assessment model based on the continuum model and two-stage jet model and found that both physical distancing and adequate ventilation are essential for minimizing infection risk, especially in high-intensity activity or densely populated spaces.
