Extreme Maximum Land Surface Temperatures
Journal of Applied Meteorology, 1992Abstract There are numerous reports in the literature of observations of land surface temperatures. Some of these, almost all made in situ, reveal maximum values in the 50°–70°C range, with a few, made in desert regions, near 80°C. Consideration of a simplified form of the surface energy balance equation, utilizing likely upper values of absorbed ...

Robustness of satellite-derived land surface parameters to urban land surface temperature
International Journal of Remote Sensing, 2018Investigating the relationship between land surface temperature (LST) and other satellite-derived land surface parameters is beneficial to exploring adaptation and mitigation strategies for urban t...

Land Surface Temperature Responses to Land Use Land Cover Dynamics
Geoinformatics & Geostatistics: An Overview, 2013Land Surface Temperature Responses to Land Use Land Cover Dynamics Land use and land cover (LULC) changes induced by human or natural processes drive biogeochemistry of the Earth influencing the climate at global as well as regional scales. Drastic changes in the land cover with the decline in vegetation and water bodies due to anthropogenic ...

MODIS Land Surface Temperature and Emissivity
2010Land surface temperature (LST) is a key parameter in the physics of land surface processes at regional and global scales, combining the results of all surface–atmosphere interactions and energy fluxes between the atmosphere and the ground (Mannstein 1987; Sellers et al. 1988).

Land surface temperature determination from satellites
Advances in Space Research, 1994Methods for determining land surface temperatures (LSTs) from infrared satellite measurements are described. These include theoretical studies which provide algorithms in which the emissivity and atmospheric effects appear explicitly. Experimentally derived algorithms are also presented.

Exploitation of AATSR land surface temperature
2012 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2012The Advanced Along-Track Scanning Radiometer (AATSR) on board the sun-synchronous, polar orbiting satellite Envisat has provided land surface temperature (LST) products for nearly the past 10 years. Such data can be used to improve our ability to monitor and to understand land surface and climate change processes, such as desertification, urbanization,

Land surface temperature trends in Iceland
Land surface temperature (LST) on Iceland has been retrieved by means of remote sensing for the period 2001-2023.  The trend in the data shows substantial geographical variability on different scales and is partly very different from the general upward trend in the 2 m temperatures.  There are areas with strong negative trend and ...Iman Rousta, Haraldur Ólafsson

Land surface temperatures - is the network good enough?
Climatic Change, 1995The land surface air temperature record is shown to be adequate for monitoring hemispheric and global scale temperatures. This is only one of a myriad of uses to which station temperatures can be put. For many of the other uses the record is inadequate, but could easily be improved by gaining access to much more data that is collected by all the ...
