Asymmetric influence of forest cover gain and loss on land surface temperature
The direct biophysical effects of fine-scale tree cover changes on temperature are not well understood. Here, we show how land surface temperature...
-
Historical changes in tree and impervious surface cover following urban renewal in a small postindustrial city
Changes in tree cover and impervious surfaces have been observed across many cities in the United States over the past 70 years. Many municipalities...

Impact of climate change and land cover dynamics on nitrate transport to surface waters
The study investigated the impact of climate and land cover change on water quality. The novel contribution of the study was to investigate the...

Combined role of ground cover management in altering orchard surface‒subsurface erosion and associated carbon–nitrogen-phosphorus loss
The combined role of ground cover management in controlling soil erosion and nutrient loss from new orchards is still less understood. In this study,...

Surface area change detection of snow/ice cover over Zemu Glacier of Sikkim Himalaya
This study assessed the snow/ice surface area changes over the Zemu Glacier in the Eastern Himalayas. Zemu is considered to be the largest glacier in...

Monitoring forest cover changes and its impact on land surface temperature using geospatial technique in Talra Wildlife Sanctuary, Shimla, India
Forest cover change plays a crucial role in impacting the ecological environment, while land surface temperature (LST) serves as a significant...
-
Analytical study on the relationship among land surface temperature, land use/land cover and spectral indices using geospatial techniques
Monitoring changes in Land Use/Land Cover (LULC), spectral indices, and Land Surface Temperature (LST) can help to identify the areas at risk for...

Ice-Cover Monitoring
It is important to monitor ice cover characteristics such as ice type, ice thickness and the amount of snow on the ice cover throughout the winter... -
Multi-temporal assessment of land surface temperatures as an indicator of land use/cover changes and climate variability in the Develi Basin, Turkey
Land surface temperature (LST) is an important parameter that reflects land surface processes of water and energy balance and has been used in...

Analyzing the effect of view factors on surface heat flux, surface temperature, and vegetation cover
With the increase in population in cities, economic, social, and environmental problems continue to increase, and it is thought that the...

Study loss of vegetative cover and increased land surface temperature through remote sensing strategies under the inter-annual climate variability in **hua–Quzhou basin, China
The **hua–Quzhou basin in China is one of the most susceptible areas to drought. Due to the loss of vegetation and great fluctuations in rainfall...

Urbanization-induced land use/land cover change and its impact on surface temperature and heat fluxes over two major cities in Western Ethiopia
Much of the urbanization that occurs in Africa creates the potential for technological development and economic growth but is also a breeding ground...

Assessment of changes in land use/land cover and land surface temperature in a fast-growing urban agglomeration of Southern India
Urbanization is the predominant driver of global land use/land cover (LU/LC) changes, resulting in long-lasting or irreversible environmental...
-
Assessing the link between land use/land cover changes and land surface temperature in Himalayan urban center, Srinagar
The rapidly growing urbanization and the consequent land use/land cover (LULC) changes have resulted in unsustainable growth of cities in Indian...

Ice-Cover Breakup and Ice Jamming
During the ice-cover period, initial ice-cover breakup precedes ice-jam flood events. Hence, it is important that breakup processes are well... -
Vegetation Cover
Galicia is a complex territory from the environmental (lithology, relief, climate) and socio-economic (population, distribution of productive... -
Trend analysis of land surface temperature over Iran based on land cover and topography
The relationship between the features of the land surface and the atmosphere is well identified by its temperature. This parameter is a key tool in...
