The urban heat island (UHI) refers to the land surface temperature (LST) difference between areas and their undeveloped or underdeveloped surroundings. It is a measure of thermal influence built-up area expansion (UBAE), topic that has been extensively studied. However, impact UBAE on LST differences rural (UHIU−R) emerging (UHIU−S) in different seasons seldom investigated. Here, UHIU−S UHIU−R ...

Urban areas with dark and impermeable surfaces are known to have a heating effect on air still water compared surrounding areas, called the urban heat island (UHI). UHI stormwater discharges’ collective impact stream temperature, especially regarding seasonal changes, is less-studied field. In this study, temperature of village Aarslev Stream Vindinge in Southern Denmark was examined. Loggers (...

Artificial impervious surfaces are one of the most significant factors contributing to urban heat islands (UHIs). Adapting UHIs is a challenge in achieving thermal comfort. We conducted quantitative and subjective evaluation closely paved novel water-retaining pavement (WR) conventional dense-asphalt (AS). investigated states humans based on human energy balance known as “human load” an indicat...

Although it has been studied for over 160 years, the urban heat island (UHI) effect is still not completely understood, yet it is increasingly important. The main purpose of this work is to improve UHI modeling by using AVHRR (Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer) satellite data to retrieve the surface parameters (albedo, as well as soil thermal and moisture properties). In this study, a hy...

Abstract The land surface temperature (LST) increases both spatially and in magnitude as a result of rapid urbanization at the expense low radiative surface. This process modifies urban climate which is attributable to phenomenon recognized Urban Heat Island (UHI). By estimating LST, satellite remote sensing offers cost-effective time-saving methodology for spatio-temporal analyses UHI. limitat...

Urban vegetation has a decisive role in sustaining homogeneous Land Surface Temperature (LST) built-up environment. However, urban areas are facing rapid changes land use/land cover (LULC) over the last few decades as green is being replaced by structures. Consequently, LST increasing and heat island (UHI) effects expanding. In this context, study was organized to assess Lahore their impact on ...
