How to evaluate the dynamic relevance between landscape pattern and thermal environment on urban agglomeration?

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2022
Landscape management and planning is an important way to mitigate climate change. Previous studies have proved landscape pattern (composition and configuration) was correlated to thermal environment based on a single image data in time, but the static ...
