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

open access: yesEgyptian 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 (

The Role of Vegetation in Mitigating Urban Land Surface Temperatures : A Case Study of Munich, Germany during the Warm Season [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The Urban Heat Island (UHI) is the phenomenon of altered increased temperatures in urban areas compared to their rural surroundings. UHIs grow and intensify under extreme hot periods, such as during heat waves, which can affect human health and also ...

Estimating and Monitoring the Land Surface Temperature (LST) Using Landsat OLI 8 TIRS

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environment, Engineering and Education, 2021
Land Surface Temperature (LST) is average temperature of an element of the exact surface of the Earth calculated from measured radiance which depends on the albedo, the vegetation cover, and the soil moisture. Land Surface Temperature can affect human discomfort, health problem, higher energy bill and further reduce the habitability of urban and sub ...

Impact of Land Surface Temperature (LST) and Ground Air Temperature (Tair) on Land Use and Land Cover (LULC): An Investigative Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environment and Climate Change, 2023
The Land Surface Temperature (LST) is the fundamental concept of measuring the temperature of the ground or soil using remote sensing technologies. LST is an essential environmental parameter that has several uses in meteorology, climatology, agriculture, urban planning, and environmental monitoring. Remote sensing instruments, such as thermal infrared
