Land Fraction Diversity on Earth-like Planets and Implications for their Habitability [PDF]
A balanced ratio of ocean to land is believed to be essential for an Earth-like biosphere and one may conjecture that plate-tectonics planets should be similar in geological properties. After all, the volume of continental crust evolves towards an equilibrium between production and erosion.

Microclimate land surface temperatures across urban land use/ land cover forms [PDF]
Urbanization brings biophysical changes in the composition of the landscape. Such change has an impact on the thermal environment locally. The urban mosaic of land use and land cover is thus characteristically composed of local climate zones. The spatial

Downscaling landsat land surface temperature over the urban area of Florence [PDF]
A new downscaling algorithm for land surface temperature (LST) images retrieved from Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) was developed over the city of Florence and the results assessed against a high-resolution aerial image.

The Influence of Deforestation on Land Surface Temperature—A Case Study of Perak and Kedah, Malaysia
Over the past few decades, there has been a rapid change in forest and land cover, especially in tropical forests due to massive deforestation. The major factor responsible for the changes is to fulfill the growing demand of increasing population through
