AI-generated Key Takeaways
-
This collection of datasets provides various perspectives on surface urban heat island (SUHI) intensities, including annual, summer, and winter data for over 10,000 urban clusters globally.
-
The datasets offer both pixel-level and spatially-averaged SUHI intensity measurements for daytime and nighttime.
-
Data is derived from MODIS 8-day TERRA and AQUA land surface temperature products, combined with Landscan urban extent data for comprehensive analysis.
-
Researchers can explore SUHI intensities across different temporal scales, including yearly, monthly, and seasonal composites for detailed insights.
-
These datasets are valuable for studying urban climate, heat island effects, and the impact of urbanization on temperature patterns.
