Homework Statement
"The urban heat island (UHI) effect refers to the phenomenon of a metropolitan or built up area which
is significantly warmer than its surrounding areas." Using white paint in roofs increases the solar reflectance and decrease the thermal intake into a building.
Question:-
So, my question is if we are reflecting the sunlight back to the atmosphere, will it convert to heat and increase the temperature of atmosphere further increasing UHI?
