A Synthesized Effect of Urban Modification and Net Radiation on the Climate of Lagos Metropolis, Nigeria
Abstract: Land cover adjustment which includes urban landscaping, agriculture crops or hardscapes forconstructing and parking lots promote variations in the energy and radiation balance. Due tothe above listed modifications, the surface temperatures and near-surface air temperatures overurban patches are generally higher than those over rural areas, thus resulting in an Urban HeatIsland (UHI). In this study, urban landscape and Land Surface Temperature (LST), netradiation, and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) data …
