Spatio-temporal Variability of Landuse Landcover and its Impact on Land Surface Temperature in Zaria Metropolis, Nigeria [PDF]

, 2020
This paper assessed the spatio-temporal variability of land use land cover (LULC) and its impact on Land Surface Temperature (LST) in Zaria and environs. Multi-temporal Landsat data; Landsat 5TM, 7ETM+ and 8OLI of 1988, 2003 and 2018, respectively, at an

Assessment of land use land cover changes and its impact on variations of land surface temperature in Asansol-Durgapur Development Region

Egyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space Sciences, 2019
Fast transformation of land use/land cover because of urban expansion profoundly influences biodiversity and ecosystem function, as well as local and regional climate. One of the more serious impacts of urbanization is the formation of urban heat island (

Some considerations about NS5 and LST Hawking radiation [PDF]

Physics Letters B 703 (2011) 627-632, 2011
We have studied the Hawking radiation corresponding to the NS5 and Little String Theory (LST) black hole models using two semi-classical methods: the complex path method and a gravitational anomaly. After summarizing some known concepts about the thermodynamics of these theories, we have computed the emission rates for the two black hole models.

Land surface temperature representativeness in a heterogeneous area through a distributed energy-water balance model and remote sensing data [PDF]

, 2010
. Land surface temperature is the link between soil-vegetation-atmosphere fluxes and soil water content through the energy water balance. This paper analyses the representativeness of land surface temperature (LST) for a distributed hydrological water ...

Factors impacting the variability of post‐fire forest regeneration in central European pine plantations

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Fire is increasingly posing a risk to forests and plantations, even in the temperate latitudes of central Europe. Little is known about fire ecology in this region, and therefore, appropriate approaches for the management and reforestation of burned sites are mostly lacking.

Dry-to-Wet Soil Gradients Enhance Convection and Rainfall over Subtropical South America [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Soil moisture-precipitation (SM-PPT) feedbacks at the mesoscale represent a major challenge for numerical weather prediction, especially for subtropical regions that exhibit large variability in surface SM. How does surface heterogeneity, specifically mesoscale gradients in SM and land surface temperature (LST), affect convective initiation (CI) over ...

A dataset of tracked mesoscale precipitation systems in the tropics

Geoscience Data Journal, Volume 12, Issue 2, April 2025.
Mesoscale Convective Systems (MCSs) are often a challenge to identify, track, and quantify. From the NASA Integrated Multi‐satellitE Retrievals for the Global Precipitation Mission (IMERG), we generated a dataset of tropical Tracked IMERG Mesoscale Precipitation Systems (TIMPS).

MODELING THE IMPACT OF SURFACE CHARACTERISTICS ON THE NEAR SURFACE TEMPERATURE LAPSE RATE [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2019
Modeling of Near-Surface Temperature Lapse Rate (NSTLR) is very important in various environmental applications. The Land Surface Temperature (LST) is influenced by many properties and conditions including surface biophysical and topographic ...

Global Warming In Ghana's Major Cities Based on Statistical Analysis of NASA's POWER Over 3-Decades [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Global warming's impact on high temperatures in various parts of the world has raised concerns. This study investigates long-term temperature trends in four major Ghanaian cities representing distinct climatic zones. Using NASA's Prediction of Worldwide Energy Resource (POWER) data, statistical analyses assess local climate warming and its implications.

Effects of forest fire severity on terrestrial carbon emission and ecosystem production in the Himalayan region, India [PDF]

Science of the Total Environment, 2020, 2018
Remote sensing techniques have been used effectively for measuring the overall loss of terrestrial ecosystem production and biodiversity due to the forest fire. The current research focuses on assessing the impact of forest fire severity on terrestrial ecosystem productivity using different burn indices in Uttarakhand, India.
