  "summary": "Air temperature in cities is highly variable horizontally and vertically, reflecting the complexity of the urban landscape. Yet, studies of urban temperature still depend largely on ground-based meteorological stations and satellite-derived surface temperature products, both of which provide limited information on near-surface air conditions and vertical structure. We tested a bio-assisted…",
