This study quantifies the impact of using an updated Land Use/Land Cover (LULC) dataset in the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model on simulating temperature, relative humidity (RH), heat index (HI), wind speed (WS) and wind direction (WD) over Metro Manila (MM), Philippines. The 2015 LULC d...
