Analyzing the Relationship between Temporal and Spatial Changes in Daily Surface Temperature and the Spatial Pattern of Land Cover Changes in the Direction of Environmental Sustainability (Case Study: Kashan city_ Iran)

open access: yesجغرافیا و پایداری محیط, 2023
The world is experiencing an unprecedented flow of urbanization. Population growth and urbanization have changed land use in urban areas. One of the consequences of these changes is the increase in the temperature of the earth's surface in urban areas ...

The role of surface roughness, albedo, and Bowen ratio on ecosystem energy balance in the Eastern United States [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Land cover and land use influence surface climate through differences in biophysical surface properties, including partitioning of sensible and latent heat (e.g., Bowen ratio), surface roughness, and albedo.

Land Surface Temperature Retrieval from Sentinel-3A Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometer, Using a Split-Window Algorithm

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
Land surface temperature (LST) is a crucial parameter in the interaction between the ground and the atmosphere. The Sentinel-3A Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometer (SLSTR) provides global daily coverage of day and night observation in the ...

Idealized model for changes in equilibrium temperature, mixed layer depth, and boundary layer cloud over land in a doubled CO2 climate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
An idealized equilibrium model for the undisturbed partly cloudy boundary layer (BL) is used as a framework to explore the coupling of the energy, water, and carbon cycles over land in midlatitudes and show the sensitivity to the clear‐sky shortwave flux,

Evaluation of VIIRS Land Surface Temperature Using CREST-SAFE Air, Snow Surface, and Soil Temperature Data

open access: yesGeosciences, 2015
In this study, the Visible Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Land Surface Temperature (LST) Environmental Data Record (EDR) was evaluated against snow surface (T-skin) and near-surface air temperature (T-air) ground observations recorded at the ...

Increasing occurrence of cold and warm extremes during the recent global warming slowdown. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The recent levelling of global mean temperatures after the late 1990s, the so-called global warming hiatus or slowdown, ignited a surge of scientific interest into natural global mean surface temperature variability, observed temperature biases, and ...

Urban storage heat flux variability explored using satellite, meteorological and geodata [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The storage heat flux (ΔQS) is the net flow of heat stored within a volume that may include the air, trees, buildings and ground. Given the difficulty of measurement of this important and large flux in urban areas, we explore the use of Earth Observation

Impact of Saline-Alkali Land Greening on the Local Surface Temperature—A Multiscale Assessment Based on Remote Sensing

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
In recent years, the conversion of saline-alkali land to rice fields has become the most dominant land use change feature in western Jilin, leading to significant surface greening.

Estimation of Air Temperature at Sites in Maritime Antarctica Using MODIS LST Collection 6 Data

open access: yesEnvironmental Sciences Proceedings, 2023
It is known that changes in temperature could cause changes in the Antarctic Ice Sheet, which would have an immediate and long-term impact on the global mean sea level.
