Considering the albedo of various surfaces, compare daily temperature ranges and means for an urban area to a more rural setting of crops and forests
Also, are there any other factors other than albedo that might affect these temperature variations?
Albedo will make for daily temperature ranges in cities to be more severe due to pavement and urbanization relative to a rural setting. The least steep of the temperature fluctuations will occur with crops and forests due to the vegetation and amount of water present.
