Influence of Land Use and Land Cover Change on Land surface temperature [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
The rapid urbanization process has recently led to significant land use and land cover (LULC) changes, thereby affecting the climate and the environment.

Remote sensing for urban heat and cool islands evaluation in semi-arid areas [PDF]

open access: yesGlobal Journal of Environmental Science and Management, 2019
Cities are experiencing rapid population growth and consequently extensive urbanization. Land-use/land-cover change is one of the important elements worldwide, which significantly affect the environment. This study aims to describe the emergence of urban

Evaluation of Land Use Change Trend and its Impact on Surface Albedo and Land Surface Temperature in Aharchai Watershed [PDF]

open access: yesجغرافیا و آمایش شهری منطقه‌ای, 2020
One of the factors affecting human activities is land use change that can lead to changes in surface albedo and land surface temperature and changes in these parameters affect the natural climate of the area.

Impact of urban land cover change on land surface temperature [PDF]

open access: yesGlobal Journal of Environmental Science and Management, 2018
The rapid growth in urban population is seen to create a need for the development of more urban infrastructures. In order to meet this need, natural surfaces such as vegetation are been replaced with non-vegetated surfaces such as asphalt and bricks ...

Validation of Landsat land surface temperature product in the conterminous United States using in situ measurements from SURFRAD, ARM, and NDBC sites

open access: yesInternational Journal of Digital Earth, 2021
Since 1982, Landsat series of satellite sensors continuously acquired thermal infrared images of the Earth’s land surface. In this study, Landsat 5, 7, and 8 land surface temperature (LST) products in the conterminous United States from 2009 to 2019 were

Impacts of Land Cover Changes on Land Surface Temperature Using Landsat Imagery with the Supervised Classification Method

open access: yesAceh International Journal of Science and Technology, 2023
Land cover changes affecting the area's ecology align with the development and increase in urbanization. Tarogong Kidul Subdistrict, Garut Regency, experienced changes in the land cover which changed the soil surface temperature.

Brown carbon in the cryosphere: Current knowledge and perspective

open access: yesAdvances in Climate Change Research, 2016
Recently, the light-absorbing organic carbon, i.e., brown carbon (BrC), has received an increasing attention, because they could significantly absorb the solar radiation in the range of short wavelengths rather than the purely scattering effect.

Biophysical effects of croplands on land surface temperature. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun
Converting natural vegetation to croplands alters the local land surface energy budget. Here, we use two decades of satellite data and a physics-based framework to analyse the biophysical mechanisms by which croplands influence daily mean land surface temperature (LST).
