The paper presents a review on major contributions in infrared thermography to study the
built environment at multiple scales. To elaborate the review, hundreds of studies conducted …

GeoAI, or geospatial artificial intelligence, has become a trending topic and the frontier for
spatial analytics in Geography. Although much progress has been made in exploring the …

Due to the scarcity of air temperature (T a) observations, urban heat studies often rely on
satellite-derived Land Surface Temperature (LST) to characterise the near-surface thermal …

Excessive heat in urban areas affects thermal comfort and livability. In order to improve local
thermal environment, correlations patterns between urban features and land surface …

Climate threats' increased frequency and intensity have recently severely threatened human
health. In particular, racial/ethnic minority people have been disproportionately exposed to …

The global climate warming caused by urbanization has significantly affected the urban
environment. Whilst land surface temperature (LST) is an important factor reflecting urban …

The frontal area index (FAI) is an essential parameter for assessing underlying roughness
and analyzing urban ventilation corridors. Since the early 1990s, FAI has gradually gained …

The negative impacts of urban heat island (UHI) have attracted more and more academic
attention. Currently, few studies have considered the effects of anthropogenic heat emission …

High-density cities, such as Singapore, are currently facing the urban heat island (UHI)
effect, a phenomenon that leads to higher air and surface temperatures within the urban …

In the current research, the question of how to modify the microclimate through landscape
planning to create a livable thermal environment within a residential community area has not …
