Cities are facing significant challenges related to climate change, particularly due to the
increasing impact of the Urban Heat Island (UHI) phenomenon. The present study …

Rapid urbanization primarily converts naturally vegetated areas and pervious surfaces into
impervious built-up areas, significantly transforming microclimates and ecological dynamics …

Understanding and describing how urban heat islands evolve is important, given the
noticeable impact they have on people living in cities. This paper considers the London heat …

The urban climate has undergone significant changes due to the rapid population growth,
leading to a decline in vegetation cover and an increase in land surface temperature (LST) …

Rising temperatures, a major global environmental challenge, negatively impact health, the
environment, society, and the economy. Surface Urban Heat Islands (SUHI), exacerbated by …

High land surface temperatures (LST) have emerged as crucial threats to urban ecosystems
and sustainable urban development. To better understand and mitigate their impacts, it is …

Land use and cover change (LUCC) is the most direct manifestation of the interaction
between anthropological activities and the natural environment on Earth's surface, with …

A series of Cu modified YInO 3-ZnO green colored NIR reflective pigments was synthesized
by sol-gel route. The dried gel precursor was calcined at different temperatures for 2 h (550° …

Due to Sharkia population's rapid growth, the crises of atmospheric pollutants are causing
significant concern. These circumstances have positive and negative impacts on both …

Climate change, which encompasses variations in rainfall and temperature patterns,
