Comparing Characteristics of the Urban Thermal Environment Based on the Local Climate Zone in Three Chinese Metropolises

ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information
Urban landscape has important effects on urban climate, and the local climate zone (LCZ) framework has been widely applied in related studies. However, few studies have compared the relative contributions of LCZ on the urban thermal environment across ...

Effects of land surface temperatures on vegetation phenology along urban–rural local climate zone gradients

Landscape Ecology
Urbanization and local urban climate have multiple impacts on vegetation phenology in urban and suburban areas. Understanding these effects and their interactions with the surface urban heating effect remains limited.

Surface urban heat island analysis based on local climate zones using ECOSTRESS and Landsat data: A case study of Valencia city (Spain)

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Extreme heat events in cities are becoming more intense, frequent and prolonged. The spatiotemporal dynamics of surface temperature are closely related to land cover and atmospheric conditions, especially for urban areas with extensive surface ...

Modeling urban air temperature using satellite-derived surface temperature, meteorological data, and local climate zone pattern—a case study in Szeged, Hungary

Theoretical and Applied Climatology
Urban air temperature is a crucial variable for many urban issues. However, the availability of urban air temperature is often limited due to the deficiency of meteorological stations, especially in urban areas with heterogeneous land cover. Many studies

Urban heat island phenomenon in Istanbul: A comprehensive analysis of land use/land cover and local climate zone effect

Indoor and Built Environment
The relationship between urban heat island (UHI) and land use/land cover (LULC), and local climate zone (LCZ) is apparent and takes rising attention in the current literature.

Mapping Large-Scale Local Climate Zones From High-Resolution Multiview Satellite Imagery

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Large-scale and reliable local climate zone (LCZ) information is crucial for the study of urban climate, such as urban heat island. Existing research for LCZ generation predominantly relies on planar information derived from single-view medium-resolution

Spatial Assessment of Heat Health Risk in Brussels Through GIS and Local Climate Zone Analysis

Atmosphere
Climate change and rapid urbanization are increasing the frequency and intensity of extreme heat events, posing significant risks to public health in cities. Although numerous studies have investigated urban heat islands and heat vulnerability, spatially

Local Climate Zone Mapping by Integrating Hyperspectral and Multispectral Data with a Spectral–Spatial Fusion Network

Remote Sensing
Local Climate Zone (LCZ) classification provides a standardized framework for characterizing urban morphology and its climatic implications. However, most existing remote sensing-based LCZ mapping methods rely on pixel-level classification and ...

Annual Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Surface Urban Heat Island Intensity in Makassar City, Indonesia (2013-2024): An Integrative Local Climate Zone Framework

Forum Geografi
Urbanization is altering the local climate, but 2D models still fall short in representing the drivers of urban heat distribution because they don’t account for 3D factors.
