Land Cover Types Drive the Surface Temperature for Upscaling Surface Urban Heat Islands with Daylight Images

open access: yesRemote Sensing
The widespread availability and spatial coverage of land surface temperature (LST) estimates from space often result in LST being used as a proxy for near-surface air temperature in order to characterize the urban heat island (UHI) effect.

Physics‐Informed Neural Networks to Develop Site‐Specific Pedotransfer Functions

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Pedotransfer functions (PTFs) are widely used to estimate soil hydraulic parameters based on easily accessible soil information, playing an important role in the parameterization of earth surface models. However, conventional PTFs, developed using measurements from small volume soil samples, often exhibit significant deviations from field ...

A Century of Drought Research (1900–2023): Scientific Developments, Methodological Innovations, and Emerging Frontiers

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Drought significantly affects water resources, agriculture, energy, and ecosystems, revealing enduring socio‐economic vulnerabilities over the centuries. This review synthesizes a century of development and recent advances in drought research (1900–2023), drawing on a bibliometric analysis of over 152,000 peer‐reviewed publications. The review

Evaluating the thermal environment of urban land surfaces in Yakutsk, a city located in a region of continuous permafrost

open access: yesAdvances in Climate Change Research
Rapid urbanization has led to changes in the urban land surface thermal environment. However, there are still much unknown about the urban land surface thermal conditions in permafrost regions.

Vegetation response to extreme climate events on the Mongolian Plateau from 2000 to 2010 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Climate change has led to more frequent extreme winters (aka, dzud) and summer droughts on the Mongolian Plateau during the last decade. Among these events, the 2000–2002 combined summer drought–dzud and 2010 dzud were the most severe on vegetation.

The Neoproterozoic Throssell Range Group, Western Australia: A Peri‐Marginal Continental Basin in Rodinia and Its Implications for the Centralian Superbasin

open access: yesBasin Research, Volume 38, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
This study of recent exploration drillcore reveals two sequences separated by a disconformity. Basal alluvial fan to shallow marine lithofacies suggest reactivation of basement faults, and a distinct upwelling signature points to a flooded margin, controlled by differential subsidence of diverse Proterozoic lithosphere.

Estimating land surface temperature of land use and land cover in Dena county using single window algorithm and landsat 8 satellite data [PDF]

open access: yesعلوم محیطی, 2017
Introduction: Land Surface Temperature (LST), a significant variable of micro climate and radiation transfer within the atmosphere, is one of the most important criteria in zonal and regional planning because it is a major factor in controlling the Earth’

Can urban design mitigate the UHI effect? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The Land Surface Temperature (LST) plays a key role in the generation of the Urban Heat Island (UHI), representing a determining factor of the radiation of the surface and the exchange of energy and control the distribution of heat between the surface ...

Response of hydrological processes to input data in high alpine catchment : an assessment of the Yarkant River basin in China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Most studies of input data used in hydrological models have focused on flow; however, point discharge data negligibly reflect deviations in spatial input data.
