Vegetation coverage has a significant influence on the land surface temperature (LST)
distribution. In the field of urban heat islands (UHIs) based on remote sensing, vegetation …

The urban heat island (UHI) effect has become a hot topic in the global urban ecological
environment. Research on the UHI effect is of great significance for alleviating urban …

The inter-annual land surface temperature (LST) is a meteorological indicator of urban
environments, affecting energy consumption and quality of life. In this study, the annual LST …

This study aimed to map water features using a Landsat image rather than traditional land

Despite being the driest inhabited continent, Australia has one of the highest per capita
water consumptions in the world. In addition, instead of having fit-for-purpose water supplies …

On a local scale, climate change can potentially exacerbate the urban heat island (UHI)
effect characterized by an abrupt thermal gradient between urbanized and nearby non …

Özet Kentleşme ile paralel olarak yoğun yerleşim alanlarında sıcaklık, kent çevresinde
bulunan kırsal alanlardan daha yüksek olarak gözlenir. Kentsel alanların etrafında bulunan …

The permanent wilting point (PWP) is the minimal point of soil moisture a plant requires not
to wilt. If moisture decreases to this, or any lower point, a plant wilts, and can no longer …

Global climate and environmental changes are endangering global water resources; and
several approaches have been tested to manage and reduce the pressure on these …
