Irrigation tends to reduce daytime urban heat stress in North America

2024-06-05

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>There is considerable disagreement about the impact of irrigation on heat stress, partly stemming from the choice of heat stress metric. Moreover, existing simulations are at scales that cannot appropriately resolve population centers, and thus potential for human impacts. Here, we employ multi-year regional climate simulations at a convection-permitting scale to demonstrate that irriga...
