...shows that the heat island effect that some people claims invalidate data supporting global warming trends, does not exist in the manner claimed by those who identify as global warming/climate change "skeptics"...

Lets get the basics done, ah will have a closer look later at "the manner claimed"..


This is reference Melbourne...

"...The urban heat island (UHI) effect refers to the phenomenon whereby a metropolitan or built up area is significantly warmer than its surrounding areas. In some cases, the UHI effect makes average urban daytime air temperatures around 5-6°C higher than the surrounding rural areas in summer..."


Cooling the urban heat island with more reflective roofs
