Improved Surface Urban Heat Impact Assessment Using GOES Satellite Data: A Comparative Study With ERA‐5
Abstract We compare high‐resolution land‐surface temperature (LST) estimates from the GOES‐16/17 (GOES) satellites to ERA‐5 Land (ERA‐5) reanalysis data across nine large US cities. We quantify the offset and find that ERA‐5 generally overestimates LST compared to GOES by 1.63°C. However, this overe...
