    Zhongwei,
       Will read soon !
    Attached is what I finally submitted to JGR.
    Don't pass on to anyone else.
       I have also received a paper from Li, Q, but have yet to
    read that. He only sent it yesterday.
    Cheers
    Phil

     Hi, Phil,
     Attached please find a draft paper about site-changes and urbanization at Beijing. It
     may be regarded as an extension of our early work (Yan et al 2001 AAS) and therefore I
     would be happy to ask you to join as a co-author.
     Regarding your recent paper about UHI effect in China (no doubt upon a large-scale
     warming in the region), I hope the Beijing case may serve as a helpful rather than a
     contradictory (as it may appear so) reference.
     The urbanization-bias at BJ was considerable but could hardly be quantified. I suspect
     it was somehow overestimated by a recent work (Ren et al 2007). Please feel free to
     comment and revise.
     I'll check and complete the reference list, while you may also add in new references
     Cheers
     Zhongwei
