  bibo_abstract:
  - "It is well known that cities increase air and surface temperatures compared to
    their rural surroundings, the so-called urban heat island (UHI) effect. However,
    the associated changes in atmospheric humidity (also known as urban dry island,
    UDI) and convection triggering remain largely unexplored and it is still unclear
    how urban modifications of the surface energy budget Influence the diurnal evolution
    of temperature and humidity in the Atmospheric Boundary Layer\r\n(ABL) and ultimately
    control the initiation of convective clouds.\r\nHere we quantify the impact of
    different urban settings and free atmospheric conditions on\r\nUHI, UDI, and convection
    triggers by means of a zero-order model of the ABL. Specifically, we\r\nderive
    an approximate solution for urban-rural changes in surface energy fluxes and ABL
    potential\r\ntemperature and humidity and we investigate the crossing between
    the ABL height and the lifting\r\ncondensation level (LCL) which is a proxy for
    the triggering of convective clouds. We show that\r\nurban areas are generally
    warmer and drier, thus causing an increase in both ABL and LCL\r\nheights. However,
    the response of the ABL-LCL crossing to surface conditions is non-linear and\r\nthere
    exists a range of free atmosphere conditions for which changes in imperviousness
    can\r\nimpact convective clouds.@eng"
