Abstract Changes in land-use/land-cover (LULC) give rise to several environmental
problems which modify the microclimate of a region. Therefore, land surface temperature …

The study investigates the impact of land use/cover changes on the dynamics of surface
temperature in the Abaminus watershed, Northwest Ethiopia. Landsat-5 images of 1987 …

Industrial revolution and rapid population growth are responsible for alteration of land into
different settlements. These changes may lead to change in land use (LU) and land cover …

While urbanization puts lots of pressure on green areas, the transition of green-to-grey
surfaces under land use land cover change is directly related to increased land surface …

Improving the urban thermal environment can enhance humans' well-being. Nevertheless, it
was not clear which land-use/land-cover (LU/LC) indices were optimal for explaining land …

Over the past century, anthropogenic activities have had a significant impact on low-lying
deltas. In this article, we utilized Landsat satellite images and sea-level data from the past …

Land cover mapping is often performed via satellite or aerial multispectral/hyperspectral
datasets. This paper explores new potentials for the characterisation of land cover from …

Land-cover mapping is important for urban planning and management, and current land-
cover mapping products are unable to meet the needs of cities due to frequent land surface …

Urban sprawl and urban forest fragmentation are the dominating driving factors of land use
land cover changes in city areas and changes in land surface temperature subsequently …

Soil erosion and land degradation have intensified recently, resulting from large‐scale land‐
use and land cover (LULC) change, deforestation and farm mechanization. This …
