Land surface temperature (LST) is one of the key parameters in the physics of land surface
processes from local through global scales. The importance of LST is being increasingly …

The last decade has seen a considerable increase in the amount and availability of remotely
sensed data. This paper reviews the satellites, sensors and studies relevant to land surface …

Air surface temperature (Tair) is an important parameter for a wide range of applications
such as vector-borne disease bionomics, hydrology and climate change studies. Air …

Spatial dimensions need to be properly captured if modeling and engineering techniques
are to be successfully applied in addressing environmental problems. The links between the …

Land surface temperature (LST) can fully reflect the water–heat exchange cycle of the earth
surface that is important for the study of environmental change. There is little research on …

In this work, the trend of the Urban Heat Island (UHI) of Rome is analyzed by both ground-
based weather stations and a satellite-based infrared sensor. First, we have developed a …

Near-surface air (Ta) and land surface (Ts) temperatures are essential parameters for
research in the fields of agriculture, hydrology, and ecological changes, which require …

In this work, satellite maps of the urban heat island of Milan are produced using satellite-
based infrared sensor data. For this aim, we developed suitable algorithms employing …

North-western Iran experiences high surface temperatures–a situation that is likely to
become increasingly severe due to both climate change and the growing area of sealed …

Except for solar irradiance components, most of the fluxes at the surface/atmosphere
interface can only be parameterized through the use of surface temperature. Land surface …
