Abstract
Abstract Monitoring urban heat island (UHI) effect is critical because it causes health problems and excessive energy consumption more energy when cooling buildings. In this study, we propose an approach for UHI monitoring by fusing data from ground-based global navigation satellite system (GNSS), space-based GNSS radio occultation (RO), and radiosonde. The idea of the approach is as follows: First, the first and second grid tops are defined based on historical RO and radiosonde observations. Next, the wet refractivities between the first and second grid tops are fitted to higher-order spherical harmonics and they are used as the inputs of GNSS tomography. Then, the temperature and water vapor partial pressure are estimated by using best search method based on the tomography-derived wet refractivity. In the end, the UHI intensity is evaluated by calculating the temperature difference between the urban regions and nearby rural regions. Feasibility of the UHI intensity monitoring approach was evaluated with GNSS RO and radiosonde data in 2010–2019, as well as ground-based GNSS data in 2020 in Hong Kong, China, by taking synoptic temperature data as reference. The result shows that the proposed approach achieved an accuracy of 1.2 K at a 95% confidence level.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
