IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote SensingUrbanization has increased the surface urban heat island (SUHI) effect. This study uses local climate zones (LCZ) and urban built environment characteristics (UBECs) to explore the factors influencing land surface temperature (LST) and SUHI in various ...

International Journal of Digital ResearchThe main objective of this study is to map the temporal and spatial development of land surface temperature (LST) and surface urban heat island (SUHI) within the city of Plovdiv, Bulgaria, for the period between 1990 and 2025. The analysis is based on satellite imagery and remote sensing techniques, using Landsat data processed through Google Earth ...

Journal of Urban and Environmental Engineering, 2015 Cities are frequently experiencing artificial heat stress, known as the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect. The UHI effect is commonly present in cities due to increased urbanization, where anthropogenic heat and human modifications have altered the ...

Investigation of the Impact of Urbanization to Urban Heat Island – A Comparison Between Perth and Muscat [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information SciencesUrbanization has led to changes in land use and land cover (LU/LC) from non-urban areas to urban areas, significantly impacting local climates, particularly through the Surface Urban Heat Island (SUHI) effect, where urban areas are warmer than rural ones.

ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information SciencesAbstract. As one of the world’s fastest developing countries, urbanization in the Philippines occurs at a rapid pace – however, this process has been well established to exhibit negative climatic impacts. This study uses linear spectral unmixing (LSU) of a PRISMA hyperspectral image alongside land surface temperature (LST) data to establish the ...
