Global long-term mapping of surface temperature shows intensified intra-city urban heat island extremes

January 13, 2022

A new paper building on the Global Human Settlement-S2 built up layer provides insights into space-time variability of Surface Urban Heat Island (SUHI) at a global scale.The results reveal that short-term (3-day) maxima of day SUHI can be several degrees higher than seasonally estimated SUHI, with differences up to 10 K and more, while they can vary by an order of magnitude within cities. This can
