Human health is known to be affected by the physical environment. Various environmental
influences have been identified to benefit or challenge people's physical condition. Their …

Global climate change, especially warming, has significant implications for human health.
There are currently research gaps in the attribution of urban heat environment (UHE) …

This study aims at assessing variations and changes in the intensity of urban land surface
temperature (LST) over four major cities in different ecological zone. The study intends to …

Urbanization-induced rapid land use/land cover change (LULCC) modifies the thermal
characteristics of a region at local scale and often creates urban heat island (UHI) effects …

The urban heat island (UHI) phenomenon is a harmful environmental problem in urban
areas affecting both climatic and ecological processes. This paper aims to highlight and …

Variations in urban land surface temperature (LST) links to the surrounding rural areas result
to urban heat island (UHI), which is a global problem challenging both cities in develop and …

In this study, the hourly air temperature differences between City hall (urban) and Okoafo
(rural) in Lagos, Nigeria, were calculated using one year of meteorological observations …

Context Land use/cover change (LUCC) can directly and indirectly affect surface urban heat
island intensity (SUHII) and the effects need to be decomposed. Objectives To perform long …

Selection of appropriate data and methods for environmental change assessment is highly
central in any remote sensing research project. This study assessed various land use/land …
