The urban heat island effect and city contiguity
Computers, Environment and Urban Systems, 2015Abstract The spatial configuration of cities can affect how urban environments alter local energy balances. Previous studies have reached the paradoxical conclusions that both sprawling and high-density urban development can amplify urban heat island intensities, which has prevented consensus on how best to mitigate the urban heat island effect via ...

Influence of urban expansion on the urban heat island effect in Shanghai
International Journal of Geographical Information Science, 2016The urban heat island UHI effect resulting from rapid urbanization is attracting increasing attention among the global scientific community. This research analyzed the relationship between urban expansion and the UHI effect utilizing an integrated approach, including urban land interpretation and retrieving land surface temperature based on remote ...

Construction of a cold island network for the urban heat island effect mitigation
Science of The Total EnvironmentThe urban heat island (UHI) effect seriously challenges sustainable urban development strategies and livability. Numerous studies have explored the UHI problem from the perspective of isolated blue and green patches, ignoring the overall function of cold island networks.

The urban heat island effect decreases bird diversity in Chinese cities.
Science of the Total Environment, 2023The audiovisual experience of observing birds in cities provides numerous benefits to residents, but their diversity is endangered by urbanization. Although the magnitude of the surface urban heat island effect (hereafter SUHI) has grown in recent years,
