There are quite a few reasons to believe that the surface temperature record — which shows a warming of approximately 0.6 ° -0.8 °C over the last century (depending on precisely how the warming trend is defined)-- is essentially uncontaminated by the effects of urban growth and the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect.

But isn't the UHI effect something other than this «microscale variability» that would be evident at a regional, spatial scale as a «hot spot» for instance (thus the urban heat island).

The Urban Heat Island Effect (UHI) is a phenomenon whereby the concentration of structures and waste heat from human activity (most notably air conditioners and internal combustion engines) results in a slightly warmer envelope of air over urbanised areas when compared to surrounding rural areas.

Furthermore, it is based on data that has been subjectively and manually adjusted, and it makes no allowance for Urban Heat Island (UHI) effects.

This phenomenon is known as the «Urban Heat Island» effect (often abbreviated to «UHI effect»).

Even the most pronounced warming, evident from the cities of Hobart and Melbourne, is within what could be considered natural — though the trends shown here are likely to be artificially exaggerated by the method of measuring temperature since 1996 ** (electronic probes) and the urban heat island (UHI) effect.

I see you wrote 6 paragraphs about your supposed climate «skepticism» arising from the urban heat island effect, but I see not a single word of explanation about why the UHI effect would turn a non-warming trend into a warming trend.

Unlike Al Gore Kristen Byrnes personally checked out the locations of many of the official thermometers that are improperly sited and corrupted by UHI (Urban Heat Island) effects.

For example, the UHI (Urban Heat Island) effect warms cities more at night than during the day... so obviously CO2 is not the only possible reason for night - time warming.

The Urban Heat Island Effect Has Hopelessly Corrupted the Land Thermometer Data... substantial average UHI warming occurs even at low population densities, about ~ 1 deg.

Although he doesn't actually come out and say it, Evans suggests that the global warming trend in the surface temperature record is an artifact caused by the urban heat island (UHI) effect:

Has the UHI effect in a city got steadily warmer, or has the area that is affected by the heat island expanded but the magnitude of the effect hasn't changed.

The urban heat island (UHI) effect on temperature records is one such impact that the IPCC keeps trying to minimize but the actual science keeps refuting the IPCC's agenda - driven science.

@Mike Edwards: There are lots of studies — hundreds, at least — of the urban heat island effect, and quite a lot of effort has gone into identifying, quantifying, modelling, and adjusting for the effect of UHI on global temperature records.

The thermometer network is made up of a patchwork of non-research quality instruments that were never made to monitor long - term temperature changes to tenths or hundredths of a degree... Furthermore, land - based thermometers are placed where people live, and people build stuff, often replacing cooling vegetation with manmade structures that cause an artificial warming (urban heat island, UHI) effect right around the thermometer.

Because they live and work in highly urbanized areas that have the necessary attributes that cause a positive temperature feedback - often referred to as the Urban Heat Island effect (UHI).

Our UHI paper analyzing this indicates that the urban heat island effect on our global estimate of land temperatures is indistinguishable from zero.

-LSB-...] cities, the Urban Heat Island effect, or» UHI».

In other words, UHI * is the value of the urban - heat - island effect if wind were not reducing it by replacing warmer air with colder; and NSTI * is the effect of the near - surface temperature inversion if the wind were not mixing up the air near the ground with the air a little higher up.

Secondly, as Steve Milesworthy points out, to explain Parker's null effect, you have to change from an Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect to a Suburban Heat Island (SuHI) effect, or rather to an Urban - embedded - in - Suburban Heat Island (UeiSuHI) effect.

3) While there seems to be some residual Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect in the U.S. Midwest, and even some spurious cooling with population density in the Southwest, for all of the 1,200 USHCN stations together there is little correlation between station temperature trends and population density.

Whereas perhaps only some of the corruption is result of demonstrable fraud and incompetence, the ubiquitous UHI (Urban Heat Island) effect is pervasive across the land - based temperature record (which itself is telling of a wilful and purposeful deception on the part of the climatist community).

I've seen little evidence of a proper discussion or understanding of the UHI or the natural heat island effects with respect to accurate measurements and post-measurement adjustments.

Thanks to the authors we get to see the ugly effect of the Urban Heat Island (UHI).

* The Urban Heat Island effect (UHI) had the potential to greatly distort the readings of individual stations.

It is on the Urban Heat Island effect (UHI) that his observations become especially pertinent to modern day conditions.

I'd give it better than 50 - 50 that talking about surface temperature without at least a footnote to UHI — the Urban Heat Island effect — says a lot more about the lack of integrity of modern climate research that anything else.

Until Phil Jones provides the underlying data, neither you nor I know how much an effect the UHI islands are making.

The fact that warming is greater in the northern hemisphere, over land, and at night, is more clearly consistent with urban heat island (UHI) effects than with the greenhouse effect.
