Modelling nighttime air temperature from remote sensing imagery and GIS data
(International Society for Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE), 2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe estimation of the Earth's surface temperature (LST) from the infrared thermal radiation (TIR) emitted by the Earth detected by means of remote sensing has allowed a giant leap in climate analysis. The specialized ... -
A new approach to the estimation of the nighttime land surface temperature
(International Society for Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE), 2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn the context of global warming, the urban heat island (UHI) has become more and more serious, aggravating the severity of heat waves impacts, which not only cause pollution and increase energy consumption, but also pose ... -

New ways of life: is polycentrism tackling dispersal in Mediterranean metropolises?: a first approach
(2011)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyMetropolization has become the prevailing way of life in a world where 53% of its population lives in cities. Nevertheless, urban expansion has followed different models beyond suburbs and sprawl, in metropolises where ... -
The extraction of urbanized areas through images of high resolution nighttime lights
(2020-08-21)
Article
Open AccessSatellite nocturnal images of the earth are a useful way to identify urbanisation. Nighttime lights have been used in a variety of scientific contributions, including studies on the identification of metropolitan areas as ... -
Application of conventional UAVs for the identification and classification of dense green spaces

Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe objective of this chapter is to show the usefulness of conventional UAVs for the identification, inventory and classification of trees in the context of dense green spaces. The aim is to demonstrate the potential of ... -
Can nighttime imagery identify urban sprawl?
(International Society for Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE), 2020)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyNighttime light imagery of the earth are a useful way to study the urbanization process. Satellite nocturnal images have been used to identify metropolitan areas as well as urban growth. However, the study of the extent ... -
Urban landscapes and night time urban heat island
(International Society for Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE), 2020)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe study of urban heat islands (UHI) is of great importance in the context of climate change (CC) and global warming. Cities accumulate heat in urban land covers as well as in built infrastructures, representing true ... -

Cooling Effect of Urban Parks in the Metropolitan Region of Barcelona: The sample of Viladecans, Gavà and Castelldefels urban continuous
(Universidade da Coruña, 2020)
Conference report
Open AccessThis study presents a multi-stage approach to quantify the cooling effect of urban parks in the metropolitan region of Barcelona from the Land Surface Temperature (LST) of Landsat-8 of a summer day. We quantified the cooling ... -
Can Planning Mitigate UHI? A “Remote Sensing” and “Local Climate Zones” Analysis for Barcelona
(Universidade da Coruña, 2020)
Conference report
Open AccessWarming of the climate system is unequivocal [1]. There is a consensus on the fact that cities have a special role in Climate Change (CC). In this context, maybe one of the most relevant climatic factors is the Urban Heat ...
