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

Brown carbon in the cryosphere: Current knowledge and perspective
Advances 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.
