Remote Sensing and GIS-based Analysis of Land Surface Temperature Dynamics and Land Use Changes in Vijayawada, India
Abstract: The alteration of land use/land cover (LULC) has significant environmental consequences since it is strongly linked to long-lasting land degradation and leads to diverse environmental alterations. It is crucial to monitor the locations and distributions of changes in land use and land cover (LULC) to comprehend the connections between government actions, policy choices, and resulting LULC activities. Modern systems for protecting the environment and managing natural resources now depend heavily …

Spatial variations of land surface temperature and its relationship with the type of land use/cover
Abstract: Environmental parameters are intricately interdependent and affect nearby and sometimes distant components. Environmental parameters become more important when dealing directly with humans. Land surface temperature (LST) is one of the environmental parameters that when it is related to the city as the main center of human gathering, it is referred to as urban heat island (UHI). Land use/ Land cover (LU/LC) is one of the important environmental parameters that affect …

Assessment of Urban Heat Island Using Geospatial Technology: A Case of Titilagarh City, Odisha
Abstract: A phenomenon known as an urban heat island (UHI) occurs when temperatures in an urban area are greater than those in a nearby rural area. The main causes of this temperature differential are urbanization, human activity, and the construction of artificial infrastructure like buildings and roads in place of natural landscapes. Titilagarh, a city in Odisha, is often referred to as one of the hottest places in the state, making …
