Urban heat island intensity in coastal cities of northern Colombia using Landsat data and WRF/UCM model
This study examines the evolution of urban heat islands (UHI) in northern Colombia during 2016 and 2021. We employed a multi-approach to analyze the intensity and magnitude of UHI in a coastal zone metropolis. We used Landsat images and WRF model numerical modeling coupling the Urban Canopy Module (...
