Abstract:Changes in land cover by rapid urbanization have diminished the cooling effect of urban green spaces (UGS), exacerbating the upward trend of land surface temperature (LST). A thorough and precise understanding of the spatio-temporal characteristics of UGS and LST is essential for mitigating localized high temperatures in cities. This study identified the spatio-temporal changes in UGS configuration and LST in Shanghai from 2003 to 2022. The correlation between UGS configuration and LST was explored using spati… Show more
“…Urban green spaces, especially urban forests, also offer solutions to the heat island effect. Huang et al [2] investigated the relationship between urban green space configuration and surface temperature using spatial autocorrelation analysis and causal inference. Their study provides insights for enhancing the cooling effects of green spaces and building cooler cities.…”
