Investigations of Surface Urban Heat Island Effect Based on Local Climate Zone Method: A Case of Xi'an [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2019
Urbanization seriously affects the urban climate and the quality of human settlement. Based on Landsat8 remote sensing and building vector data, local climate zone (LCZ) method is employed to study the influences of urban form on land surface temperature

Interannual Spatiotemporal Variations of Land Surface Temperature in China From 2003 to 2018

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2021
Land surface temperature (LST) is a comprehensive embodiment of surface energy balance and land surface processes. The spatial and temporal variation of LST is of great significance for studying surface characteristics and climate change.

Geospatial Analysis of Population Exposure to Flooding in the Sudd Region, South Sudan

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The Sudd wetland in South Sudan extends over 90,000 km2. Large‐scale flood events in recent years (2019–2022) are said to have led to the displacement of an estimated 1.8 million people in total. However, these estimates are approximate and to date there has not been a systematic analysis of population exposure to flooding in the Sudd region ...

GEOSTATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF SURFACE TEMPERATURE AND IN-SITU SOIL MOISTURE USING LST TIME-SERIES FROM MODIS [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2012
The objective of this analysis is to provide a quantitative estimate of the fluctuations of land surface temperature (LST) with varying near surface soil moisture (SM) on different land-cover (LC) types.

Seasonal Ice Cover Could Allow Liquid Lakes to Persist in a Cold Mars Paleoclimate

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Geomorphic and stratigraphic studies of Mars prove that extensive liquid water flowed and pooled on the surface early in Mars' history. Martian paleoclimate models, however, have difficulty simulating climate conditions warm enough to maintain liquid water on early Mars.

Assessment of land surface temperature variation due to change in elevation of area surrounding Jaipur, India

Egyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space Sciences, 2018
Land surface temperature (LST) is a key parameter for surface energy balance and urban climatology studies. LST is affected by the characteristics of the land surface such as vegetation cover and its type, land use-land cover and surface imperviousness ...

An Arctic-Tibetan Connection on Subseasonal to Seasonal Time Scale [PDF]

, 2019
Recent research indicates the great potentials of springtime land surface temperature (LST) as a new source of predictability to improve the subseasonal to seasonal climate prediction.

Implications of atmospheric conditions for analysis of surface temperature variability derived from landscape-scale thermography [PDF]

, 2016
Thermal infrared (TIR) cameras perfectly bridge the gap between (i) on-site measurements of land surface temperature (LST) providing high temporal resolution at the cost of low spatial coverage and (ii) remotely sensed data from satellites that provide ...

Impact‐Based Drought Detection via Interpretable Machine Learning and Causal Discovery

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract The intensification of drought events due to climate change presents unprecedented risks and widespread socioenvironmental impacts. Traditional drought indices, which rely on hydrometeorological anomalies, often fall short in capturing the full extent of these impacts, as they primarily focus on isolated precursors (e.g., precipitation deficit

Distance matters: Quantifying the influence of urban land use change and development proximity on land surface temperature in Sari, Iran

Ecological Indicators
The rapid expansion of urban areas has led to significant land use changes, affecting local climate systems, particularly through an increase in Land Surface Temperature. This study investigates the spatio-temporal dynamics of Urban Land Use Changes, and
