Contribution of impervious surfaces to urban evaporation [PDF]
Water Resources Research, 2014 AbstractObservational data and the Princeton urban canopy model, with its detailed representation of urban heterogeneity and hydrological processes, are combined to study evaporation and turbulent water vapor transport over urban areas. The analyses focus on periods before and after precipitation events, at two sites in the Northeastern United States ...

Variational Assimilation of the Impervious Surfaces Temperature
Atmosphere, 2020 Impervious surface temperature is a key parameter in impervious surface energy balance. Urban canopy models are now widely used to simulate impervious surface temperatures, but the physical assimilation method for the urban canopy model is still under ...

An Impervious Surface Spectral Index on Multispectral Imagery Using Visible and Near-Infrared Bands
Remote Sensing, 2022 The accurate mapping of urban impervious surfaces from remote sensing images is crucial for understanding urban land-cover change and addressing impervious-surface-change-related environment issues. To date, the authors of most studies have built indices

IMPERVIOUS SURFACES IN URBAN WATERSHEDS
Proceedings of the Water Environment Federation, 2005 Urbanization causes profound changes in the hydrology of the area, specifically the timing of the runoff, the water use, runoff volume and flow rates, channel complexity, and especially pollution in receiving waters. Water quality problems increase with increasing imperviousness of the watershed. Impervious areas cause increased runoff and contaminated

IET Networks, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract This research aims to study the intelligent wireless sensor to improve the water permeability of permeable asphalt concrete pavement. The water permeability of pavement is extremely important for the traffic environment. This study first briefly introduces the background and significance analysis, and then exemplifies the deployment algorithm ...

Monitoring of subpixel impervious surface dynamics using seasonal time series Landsat 8 OLI imagery
Ecological Indicators, 2023 Since impervious surface is one of the core urban ecological indices, its high-precision time series monitoring at regional or global scales is highly desirable. Spectral features, spatial features, and temporal features have been successfully applied to

Build-up and characterisation of pollutants on urban impervious surfaces
Water Science and Technology, 2018 Abstract This paper presents the results of the investigation of pollutant build-up on impervious surfaces of a parking lot in Belgrade, Serbia during the summer months. Contaminant build-up was found to be greater on asphalt surfaces directly exposed to vehicular traffic than on concrete walkways.

Expansion of Impervious Surfaces and Their Driving Forces in Highly Urbanized Cities in Kyrgyzstan [PDF]
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2020 The expansion of urban areas due to population increase and economic expansion creates demand and depletes natural resources, thereby causing land use changes in the main cities. This study focuses on land cover datasets to characterize impervious surface (urban area) expansion in select cities from 1993 to 2017, using supervised classification maximum
