The surface urban heat island (SUHI), which represents the difference of land surface
temperature (LST) in urban relativity to neighboring non-urban surfaces, is usually …

Urban open space provides various benefits to citizens, but the thermal environment of this
space is impacted by global warming and urban heat islands. A growing number of studies …

The ubiquitous nature of satellite data has led to an explosion of studies on the surface
urban heat island (SUHI). Relatively few have simultaneously used air temperature …

Buildings in cities consume up to 70% of all primary energy. To achieve cities' energy and
climate goals, it is necessary to reduce energy use and associated greenhouse gas …

Despite research on urban heat island (UHI) effect has increased exponentially over the last
few decades, a systematic review of factors contributing to UHI effect has scarcely been …

There is currently a lack of knowledge regarding the spatiotemporal variation of day and
night surface urban heat island intensity (SUHII) in the major cities of Bangladesh. These …

Abstract The Urban Heat Island (UHI) is a phenomenon that affects many millions of people
worldwide. The higher temperatures experienced in urban areas compared to the …
