A study on surface cracking in extrusion of aluminium alloy AA2014 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Surface cracking is generally recognised as one of the main defects occurring during the process of aluminium extrusion, especially in the case of the so called hard aluminium alloys.

Effect of land cover changes on land surface temperature in Yazd plain, Iran [PDF]

open access: yesکاوش‌های جغرافیایی مناطق بیابانی, 2021
Introduction: The growth of urbanization and the expansion of cities have caused significant changes in the surrounding land cover. Changes in land surface characteristics as a result of rapid urbanization can affect climatic conditions in seasonal and ...

The GLASS Land Surface Temperature Product

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2019
Land surface temperature (LST) is one of the most important geophysical parameters at the earth's surface. Satellite LST products are beneficial for scientific communities with a variety of applications. The Global Land Surface Satellite (GLASS) LST product has been generated for 1983, 1993, 2003, and 2013 from historical NOAA-7 and NOAA-14 AVHRR data ...

Evaluating the Variability of Urban Land Surface Temperatures Using Drone Observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Urbanization and climate change are driving increases in urban land surface temperatures that pose a threat to human and environmental health. To address this challenge, we must be able to observe land surface temperatures within spatially complex urban ...

A Bayesian Estimator for Linear Calibration Error Effects in Thermal Remote Sensing

open access: yes, 2005
The Bayesian Land Surface Temperature estimator previously developed has been extended to include the effects of imperfectly known gain and offset calibration errors. It is possible to treat both gain and offset as nuisance parameters and, by integrating

Understanding the daily cycle of evapotranspiration: a method to quantify the influence of forcings and feedbacks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A method to analyze the daily cycle of evapotranspiration over land is presented. It quantifies the influence of external forcings, such as radiation and advection, and of internal feedbacks induced by boundary layer, surface layer, and land surface ...

Estimation of land surface temperature with NOAA9 data [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing of Environment, 1992
Different methods for estimating land surface temperature for NOAA satellites data are presented. All these methods use the infrared channels of the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR). The single channel method using radiosounding data and a radiative transfer model is compared to the split window method and to other methods using ...

A new model to downscale urban and rural surface and air temperatures evaluated in Shanghai, China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A simple model, TsT2m (Surface Temperature and near surface air Temperature (at 2 m) model), is developed to downscale numerical model output (such as from ECMWF) to obtain higher temporal and spatial resolution surface and near surface air temperature ...

Afforestation in China cools local land surface temperature [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014
Significance China has the largest afforested area in the world. Afforestation not only contributes to increased carbon storage but also alters local albedo and turbulent energy fluxes, which offers feedback on the local and regional climate.
