The surface urban heat island (SUHI), which represents the difference of land surface
temperature (LST) in urban relativity to neighboring non-urban surfaces, is usually …

Remote sensing of urban environments has unveiled a significant shift from single-city
investigations to the inclusion of multiple cities. Originated from the ideas of the Remote …

Urban environments, regarded as “harbingers” of future global change, may exert positive or
negative impacts on urban vegetation growth. Because of limited ground-based …

Understanding the relationship between urbanization and vegetation is essential for
sustainable urban development. Over the last few decades, China has experienced rapid …

In the context of global warming, the advancement of spring phenology in northern and
temperate regions due to increased temperatures has been widely reported. Early and …

There is a growing demand for urban form optimization to mitigate urban heat island (UHI)
effect. Nevertheless, how UHI responds to various urban morphological patterns is still …

Growing demands for temporally specific information on land surface change are fueling a
new generation of maps and statistics that can contribute to understanding geographic and …

Urbanization, a dominant global demographic trend, leads to various changes in
environments (eg, atmospheric CO2 increase, urban heat island). Cities experience global …

Abstract Knowledge about the impacts of urban heat islands (UHI) and associated thermal
gradients on vegetation seasonality (ie phenology) is vital for understanding spatial patterns …

There are many studies focusing on spatial variations of surface urban heat islands (SUHIs)
in literature. In this study, MODIS land surface temperature (LST) data and China's Land …
