The urban heat island is generally conducted based on ground observations of air temperature and remotely sensing of land surface temperature (LST). Satellite remotely sensed LST has the advantages of global coverage and consistent periodicity, which overcomes the weakness of ground observations related to sparse distributions and costs. For human related studies and urban climatology, canopy l...

This paper introduces query devices, an extension to the widget concept. Query devices are graphical database interaction objects such as rangesliders and toggles. The design space of query devices is structured and it is shown how the design space can be explored so that consistent and distinguishable query devices are created. Existing query devices are placed in the design space and new ones...

Preliminary analysis is presented for J, H, and K 0 images of the Corona Australis cloud core. Color-color and color-magnitude diagrams reveal relatively few new cluster members. We conclude that the R Cr A infrared cluster consists of only about 30 members and its size reeects the available reservoir of molecular gas.
