recommendations! Published in 2019 at "Environmental Monitoring and Assessment"

DOI: 10.1007/s10661-019-7343-1

Abstract: Land surface temperature and moisture are central components of the Earth’s surface heat budget. China has experienced substantial land use/cover change that has led to deterioration of the urban microclimate, thus affecting global climate change.… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2020 at "Urban Climate"

DOI: 10.1016/j.uclim.2019.100569

Abstract: Abstract A new model for predicting land use changes in depopulating cities is proposed that uses a spatial statistical model enhanced by the Bayesian model. This model is a modified form of the intrinsic Gaussian… read more here.
