摘要

Urban weather and climate modeling is challenged by the highly heterogeneous and dynamic nature of cities. It exhibits a persistent trilemma between spatial granularity, spatiotemporal coverage, and physical interpretability. We articulate this challenge and propose a hybrid framework integrating physics-based models, urban observations, and machine learning. Framing this challenge as an integration problem across methods and scales, we provide a structured guide for next-generation, decision-relevant urban weather and climate modeling.
