An urban heat island (UHI) is a serious phenomenon associated with built environments and
presents threats to human health. It is projected that UHI intensity will rise to record levels in …

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 greening is increasingly viewed by cities worldwide as an effective measure to
mitigate adverse impacts of urban heat island (UHI) effect. Despite the recognition of the …

The cooling effects of green spaces and water bodies are essential in subtropical cities with
high temperatures combined with increasing urban heat island effect, while there is …

Deforestation and fires in the Amazon are serious problems affecting climate, and land use
and land cover (LULC) changes. In recent decades, the Amazon biome area has suffered …

This paper investigates the impacts of changing land use–land cover on the land surface
temperature (LST) and normalized differential vegetation index (NDVI) distribution in the …

Urban green spaces and water bodies play major roles in effectively alleviating the urban
heat island (UHI) effect by decreasing temperature. Here, statistical correlation and …

In this study, we assessed the impact of Land-Use/Land-Cover (LULC) changes on Land
Surface Temperature (LST) in Chattogram Metropolitan Area (CMA) of southeastern …

While both composition and configuration of urban green spaces (UGS) have been shown to
affect the cooling effect of UGS, more studies have focused on how land use affects UGS …

Urban growth and the consequent expansion of impervious surfaces influence a
landscape's thermal characteristics by raising Land Surface Temperatures (LST). Resultant …
