Climate change, urban heat island effect delay spring in NYC parks. What it means for public health. Researchers at the Yale School of the Environment used satellite imagery to analyze the start of the growing season at New York City parks. They expected to see spring arrive earlier with climate change โ€” but found that it was arriving later.
