A Survey of Landscape Metrics and Land-use/land-cover Structures on Urban Heat Islands Surface: A Case Study on Urmia City, Iran
Urbanization is developing unprecedentedly on a global scale. One of the chief repercussions of urbanization, caused by man-made alterations in land-use/land-cover (LULC), is the formation of urban heat islands. Albeit, differences among landscape structures and its accompanied effects on the environment are mostly neglected. Accordingly, the main objective of this study is to survey the variou...

متن کاملRemote sensing for urban heat and cool islands evaluation in semi-arid areas
Cities are experiencing rapid population growth and consequently extensive urbanization. Land-use/land-cover change is one of the important elements worldwide, which significantly affect the environment. This study aims to describe the emergence of urban heat and cool islands as a result of changes in land-use/land-cover. Land surface temperature over a 32-year period in Isfahan city, Iran was ...
متن کاملSurface Urban Heat Island in Shanghai, China: Examining the Relationship between Land Surface Temperature and Impervious Surface Fractions Derived from Landsat Etm+ Imagery
This paper investigates the relationship between the surface urban heat islands (SUHI) and the percent impervious surface area (%ISA) in Shanghai, China. The %ISA was characterized from a Landsat-7 ETM+ multispectral dataset using the Linear Mixture Spectral Analysis (LMSA). Several critical steps being taken to derive %ISA were discussed, including atmospheric and geometric correction, water f...
