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.

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.

Cálculo de um índice de humidade relativa do ar, considerando a resiliência térmica horária da temperatura lST, obtida por imagens de satellite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A relative humidity index (IHR-LST), estimated using the difference between the temperature LST (Land Surface Temperature), one hour after sunrise and one hour after solar noon, divided by the number of hours mediate these two periods, is compared with ...

First assessment of the plant phenology index (PPI) for estimating gross primary productivity in African semi-arid ecosystems

open access: yes, 2019
The importance of semi-arid ecosystems in the global carbon cycle as sinks for CO2 emissions has recently been highlighted. Africa is a carbon sink and nearly half its area comprises arid and semi-arid ecosystems.
