An Integrated Framework for the Spatio–Temporal–Spectral Fusion of Remote Sensing Images
TL;DR: The proposed integrated fusion framework can achieve the integrated fusion of multisource observations to obtain high spatio-temporal-spectral resolution images, without limitations on the number of remote sensing sensors.

Temporal trends of surface urban heat islands and associated determinants in major Chinese cities
TL;DR: ModIS land surface temperature data and China's Land Use/Cover Datasets were used to examine the temporal trends of SUHIs in 31 major Chinese cities during 2001-2015 using three indicators: SUHI intensity (SUHII), area of the SUHI (AreaSUHI) and percentage of area with increasing SUHII (PAISUHII).

Characterizing spatial and temporal trends of surface urban heat island effect in an urban main built-up area: A 12-year case study in Beijing, China
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper developed an urban main built-up area (UMBA) extraction method based on impervious surface distribution density (ISDD) to better differentiate suburban boundaries and ensure the integrity of land cover types.

Impact of urbanization and land-use change on climate
Eugenia Kalnay,Ming Cai +1 more
TL;DR: The difference between trends in observed surface temperatures in the continental United States and the corresponding trends in a reconstruction of surface temperatures determined from a reanalysis of global weather over the past 50 years is used to estimate the impact of land-use changes on surface warming.
