On the assessment of surface urban heat island: size, urban form, and seasonality [PDF]

open access: possible, 2022
To what extent cities can be made sustainable under the mega-trends of urbanization and climate change remains a matter of unresolved scientific debate. Our inability in answering this question lies partly in the deficient knowledge regarding pivotal humanenvironment interactions. Regarded as the most well documented anthropogenic climate modification,

Surface and canopy urban heat island disparities across 2064 urban clusters in China

Science of The Total Environment
The vast majority of urban heat island (UHI) studies are now derived from surface temperatures, substituting for the original air temperature-based definition. The disparities in hourly surface-canopy UHI effects (SUHI, CUHI) and the contrasting mechanisms are currently poorly understood. Here, we use high-resolution hourly LST and air temperature data

Measuring Edinburgh’s surface urban heat island

2014
This project investigated Edinburgh’s surface urban heat island (SUHI) in relation to land cover and land use. Thermal channels of Landsat TM, Landsat ETM+ and ASTER imagery captured between 1999 and 2011 provide land surface temperatures (LST). SUHI magnitudes over different surface classifications are contrasted diurnally and seasonally. The cause is
