A Comparison of Multiple Datasets for Monitoring Thermal Time in Urban Areas over the U.S. Upper Midwest [PDF]
, 2016 Traditional studies of urban climate used air temperature observations from local urban/rural weather stations in order to analyze the general pattern of higher temperatures in urban areas compared with corresponding rural regions, also known as the ...

Harnessing Satellite Data Alone for Mapping Global Thermal Anisotropy
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 8, 28 April 2025.Abstract Mapping thermal anisotropy across global lands is critical for advancing a wide range of Earth science studies. However, a comprehensive understanding of global thermal anisotropy intensity (TAI) and its governing factors remains missing. We introduce a novel data‐driven methodology to quantify global TAI exclusively using multi‐angle MODIS ...

Comparison of Bayesian Land Surface Temperature algorithm performance with Terra MODIS observations [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 An approach to land surface temperature (LST) estimation that relies upon Bayesian inference has been tested against multiband infrared radiometric imagery from the Terra MODIS instrument. Bayesian LST estimators are shown to reproduce standard MODIS product LST values starting from a parsimoniously chosen (hence, uninformative) range of prior band ...

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).

Estimating building energy efficiency from street view imagery, aerial imagery, and land surface temperature data [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Current methods to determine the energy efficiency of buildings require on-site visits of certified energy auditors which makes the process slow, costly, and geographically incomplete. To accelerate the identification of promising retrofit targets on a large scale, we propose to estimate building energy efficiency from widely available and remotely ...

ANALYSING THE EFFECTS OF DIFFERENT LAND COVER TYPES ON LAND SURFACE TEMPERATURE USING SATELLITE DATA [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2015 Monitoring Land Surface Temperature (LST) via remote sensing images is one of the most important contributions to climatology. LST is an important parameter governing the energy balance on the Earth and it also helps us to understand the behavior of ...

Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.Abstract Climate change is expected to intensify the global water cycle, affecting land‐atmosphere feedbacks and surface water availability. This leads to prolonged droughts and excessive heat events, increasing vulnerability of cities to water scarcity and extreme heat.
