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 …

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 …

Land use pattern can substantially shape urban thermal environment. Although previous
studies have shown that urban heat island (UHI) intensity will be easily affected by the …

The present study focuses on determining the relationship of estimated land surface
temperature (LST) with normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and normalized …

Urban heat island (UHI) has become an urban eco-environmental problem globally. Land
surface temperature (LST) is widely used to quantify UHI. This study used Shenzhen, a …

Urban parks can significantly alleviate the urban heat island, an ecological issue caused by
urbanization. Clarifying urban park cooling effect can improve climate change adaptability …

Land use conflict describes the incoordination of land use structure when meeting the
diverse human demands under the deterioration of natural environment, which is a sensitive …

Spatial pattern of built-up areas can exert an important influence on surface urban heat
islands (SUHIs). While previous studies relied heavily on landscape indicators to …

Summer increasingly gets hotter, which has become a common problem that threats human
settlement environment and hinders urban sustainable development. The impacts of urban …

Multiple factors regulate urban land surface temperature (LST), including land cover,
climate, and urban form, among which urban form is now receiving more and more attention …
