Long-Term and Multi-Index Assessment of Urban Thermal Environments Across Local Climate Zones: A 20-Year Analysis of Xiamen, China

Land
The Local Climate Zone (LCZ) provides a systematic approach for analyzing the differences in urban thermal environment. However, given the scarcity of accessible multi-year LCZ maps, studying the long-term thermal differences among LCZs remains ...

Spatiotemporal Local Climate Zone (LCZ) dan Hubungannya dengan Fenomena Urban Heat Island (UHI) di Kawasan Universitas Diponegoro Tembalang

Jurnal Ilmu Lingkungan
Transformasi spasial yang pesat akibat ekspansi kampus telah membentuk ulang morfologi kawasan Undip Tembalang dan berpotensi memperkuat efek UHI lokal. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji perubahan spasio-temporal LCZ serta hubungannya dengan LST untuk memahami bagaimana proses Studentifikasi memengaruhi iklim mikro kampus.

USING LOCAL CLIMATE ZONE (LCZ) TO STUDY THE URBAN HEAT ISLAND AT CITY LEVEL- A CASE STUDY OF AHMEDABAD

International Journal of Advanced Research
Increased temperature in urban areas brings about various problems and thermal discomfort. Many studies focused on detecting the effects of land cover patterns on Land Surface Temperature (LST) using satellite imagery and subjective study (Peoples perception) of the thermal environment. A very limited number of studies (Kim et al., 2021) (Stewart &

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

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.
