Urban Heat Island
We are all familiar with the fact that cities are generally warmer than the surrounding, more rural areas. We see it referenced most nights in our television weather reports. It is especially significant on nights with clear skies and light winds which favor radiational cooling. This is most significant in the rural areas but in the city, the excess heat absorbed during the day and the local he...

متن کاملRule Based Classification for Urban Heat Island Mapping
SUMMARY One of the main parameter for urban heat island mapping is the land cover information. Satellite data were used to map the land cover over the study area, CyberJaya. Remotely sensed data were processed using pixel based and object based image processing techniques. Most traditional classification approaches are based exclusively on the digital number of the pixel itself. Thereby only th...
متن کاملMapping Manchester’s urban heat island
An urban heat island (UHI) is a phenomenon whereby urban areas experience elevated temperatures relative to the surrounding rural hinterland. This thermal contrast is brought about by anthropogenic modification of the environment. For example, there is little bare earth and vegetation in urban areas. This means that less energy is used in evaporating water, less of the Sun’s energy is reflected...
