Most of the UK population lives in urban areas, which often have higher temperatures than rural areas (the urban heat island [UHI] effect) and higher rates of heat-related mortality. We estimated the mortality burden in terms of attributable mortality and years of life lost (YLLs), and ...

With the growth of urbanization, the understanding of the spatial distribution of LST and its explanatory factors is crucial in mitigating the urban heat island effect. The spatial pattern and explanatory variables of land surface temperature (LST) is a critical area of study, given its impact on...
The Urban Heat Island (UHI) phenomenon significantly affects us by exacerbating heat discomfort, increased energy consumption, and urban air pollution. The
1. Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect is one of the most documented phenomena. The phenomenon is associated with higher ambient air temperature levels in urban areas, compared to the surrounding rural ...

Cities are generally warmer than their adjacent rural land, a phenomenon known as the urban heat island (UHI). Often accompanying the UHI effect is another phenomenon called the urban dry island (UDI), whereby the humidity of urban land is lower than that of the surrounding rural land1,2,3...
