Impacts of urban land-use change on land-surface heat exposure risk: spatial evidence from multi-source remote sensing in Zhejiang Province [PDF]
Frontiers in Public HealthRapid urbanization can intensify land-surface heat exposure by replacing natural surfaces with impervious materials, yet the thermal effects of specific land-cover transitions remain insufficiently understood. We integrated land-cover data for 2000, 2010,

Intensification of sediment loss on land surfaces in calabar river catchment, cross river state, Nigeria. [PDF]
Riscuri şi Catastrofe, 2020 Soil loss is a direct consequence of soil erosion which is a function of rainfall amount, intensity and duration as well as surface configuration (relief/slope), nature of surface materials and vegetation.

DETERMINING THE IMPACTS OF LAND COVER/USE CATEGORIES ON LAND SURFACE TEMPERATURE USING LANDSAT8-OLI [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2016 Due to unplanned and uncontrolled expansion of urban areas, rural land cover types have been replaced with artificial materials. As a result of these replacements, a wide range of negative environmental impacts seriously impacting human health, natural ...
