If you are out in the Mongolian countryside and you notice that in the winter, the stars don't match the night sky as they should, the heat from the city is causing disturbances in the night air

This phenomenon is known as the Heat Island Effect, where urban areas become and remain warmer than suburban areas due to the prevalence of heat retaining materials such as concrete.
