Characteristics and Trends in Short‐Duration Heavy Rain in Wet‐Season in Hong Kong

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 7, 15 June 2026.
This study examines the characteristics of heavy rain events (hourly rainfall ≥ 30 mm) in Hong Kong from 2000 to 2024. A statistically significant increasing trend in short‐duration (1–3 h) heavy rain events (3.4 events per decade) in the wet season is observed, primarily due to other mechanisms rather than surface troughs or tropical cyclones. Notably,

Land surface dynamics and meteorological forcings modulate land surface temperature characteristics

open access: yes
This study examines the effect of land cover, vegetation health, climatic forcings, elevation heat loads, and terrain characteristics (LVCET) on land surface temperature (LST) distribution over West Africa (WA). We employ fourteen machine-learning models,

Land Surface Temperature continuous time series from SSM/I passive microwave radiometers, over northern latitudes (Latitudes > 45°N), during summer snow free period (2000-2011), with links to NetCDF files

open access: yes, 2015
Remote sensing instruments are key players to map land surface temperature (LST) at large temporal and spatial scales. In this paper, we present how we combine passive microwave and thermal infrared data to estimate LST during summer snow-free periods ...

Integrating Landsat 8 and Sentinel 2 in increasing the spatial resolution of land surface temperature: A case study in Ho Chi Minh city [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
One of the most popular methods for calculating land surface temperature (LST) is based on the thermal band of satellite images, but the resolution is relatively low and medium.

Average annual and seasonal Land Surface Temperature maps for the Peninsular Spain

open access: yes, 2018
The dataset contains one zip file with the annual and seasonal average LST maps for the peninsular Spain in netCDF file format. The maps contain 834 latitudes and 1115 longitudes. The projection is (ED50/UTM30).

Investigating Land Surface Temperature (LST) Change Using the LST Change Detection Technique (Gomishan District, Iran)

open access: yes, 2018
Monitoring variations in the spectral reflectance of thermal bands of Landsat data provide land surface temperature information of earth’s surface features. This research tried to examine the variations of Land surface temperature (LST) from 1987 to 2017 at the Gomishan district and its soundings in Iran.

Modelling the spatial pattern of forest fires using NDVI and land surface temperature in Southern African landscapes

open access: yes, 2012
In this study we used maxent to test whether; and for which month of the growing season SPOT derived normalized difference vegetation index (SPOT NDVI) data can be used to predict fire occurrence in August, September and October (AUC>0.5).

Analyzing the Influence of Anthropogenic Heat on Groundwater Using Remote-Sensing and In Situ Data

open access: yesSensors
The continuous expansion of impervious surfaces replacing the vegetation cover and surface water areas increases urban heating. Such heating leads to downward heat transfer and latent heat flux from the surface to subsurface aquifers.
