Short summary
Utilizing the urban microclimate model PALM-4U, we show that temperature anomalies of ± 5 K at a depth of 2 m in the soil can impact atmospheric potential air temperatures within idealized domains. The impact depends on the season, time of day, land cover, and lateral boundary conditions of the domain. The magnitude of change depends mostly on seasonality and the time of day, ranging from 0.1 to 0.4 K. Land cover influences the absolute temperature but has a smaller impact on the magnitude.
