Spatial distribution and driving force analysis of urban heat island effect based on raster data: a case study of the Nanjing metropolitan area, China
Sustainable Cities and Society(2019)
Abstract
•The driving factors of UHI have the highest explanatory power at 300 m grid.•LULC had a significant effect on LST.•Both intensity and type of human activities can strongly influence the UHI.•The POI data and urban functional area data can be useful data sources for driving mechanism of UHI effect.
