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 …

This study examined the interaction between land use and land cover (LULC) dynamics,
trend and thermal stress distribution using the universal thermal comfort index (UTCI) and …

Abstract The Dongting Lake area (China) is a climate change-sensitive and ecologically
fragile area and plays a crucial role in the regulation of the regional climate. In recent …

The urbanization of landscapes and the increase in impervious land cover materials is
known to cause significant changes in the landscape's thermal properties, typically leading …

One of the essential anthropogenic influences on urban climate is land-use/land-cover
(LULC) change due to urbanization, which has a direct impact on land surface temperature …

Rapid urbanization, particularly in developing countries, is widely regarded as one of the
most critical global issues in the 21 st century. It is known to exacerbate urban heat island …

The rapid urbanization and industrialization along with the expansion of cities in developing
countries like Bangladesh converting vegetation and bare land into built-up area that …

Land use/land cover (LULC) changes due to urban growth on the regional scale affect land
surface temperature (LST). The present study aims to assess the LULC changes and their …

An urban heat island (UHI) is a significant anthropogenic modification of urban land
surfaces, and its geospatial pattern can increase the intensity of the heatwave effects. The …

The major environmental impacts of urbanization have changed urban biophysical
components which ultimately promoted land surface temperature (LST) as well as urban …
