Urban heat exposures have increased considerably in cities around the globe due to rapid
urbanization and the changing climate. This study explores the spatiotemporal variations in …

Develo** urban agglomerations and establishing metropolitan areas have led to urban
heat islands breaking through the original single urban scale to form regional heat islands …

A better understanding of the relationship between land surface temperature (LST) and its
influencing factors is important to the livable, healthy, and sustainable development of cities …

Abstract Urban Heat Island (UHI) is a phenomenon that can cause hotspots in city areas due
to dense, impervious infrastructure and minimal vegetation cover. UHI hotspots may become …

Abstract Background and Objectives Extreme heat is an environmental health equity
concern disproportionately affecting low-income older adults and people of color. Exposure …

In the context of sustainable urban development, elucidating urban heat island (UHI)
dynamics in arid regions is crucial. By thoroughly examining the characteristics of UHI …

The heat exposure risks can differ for various sociodemographic groups because of the
heterogeneous distribution of urban heat islands and populations across the space. This …

Surface urban heat islands (SUHIs) are essential for evaluating urban thermal
environments. However, current quantitative studies of SUHIs ignore the thermal radiation …

Urban form has been confirmed to be a contributor to the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect in
metropolitan areas, but few studies have focused the relationship in fast-growing small cities …

The development of urbanization and the establishment of metropolitan areas causes the
urban heat island to cross the original single-city scale and form a regional heat island (RHI) …
