Effect of landscape pattern and spatial configuration of vegetation patches on urban warming and cooling in Harare metropolitan city, Zimbabwe
Kowe, Pedzisai; Mutanga, Onisimo; Dube, Timothy (Bellweather Publishing, 2021)The spatial configuration of vegetation patches in the landscape has implications for the provision of ecosystem services, human adaptation to climate change, enhancement, or mitigation of urban heat island. Until recently, ... -
Impacts of eco-environmental quality, spatial configuration, and landscape connectivity of urban vegetation patterns on seasonal land surface temperature in Harare metropolitan city, Zimbabwe
Kowe, Pedzisai; Mutanga, Onisimo; Dube, Timothy (Taylor and Francis Group, 2022)The study examined the impact of eco-environmental quality conditions, spatial configurations and landscape connectivity of urban vegetation on seasonal land surface temperature (LST) in Harare, Zimbabwe between May and ... -
Impacts of the spatial configuration of built-up areas and urban vegetation on land surface temperature using spectral and local spatial autocorrelation indices
Dube, Timothy; Kowe, Pedzisai; Mushore, Terence Darlington; Ncube, Amos (Remote Sensing Letters, 2022)Understanding how the spatial configuration of land cover patterns of built-up areas and urban vegetation affect urban surface temperatures is crucial for improving the sustainability of cities as well as optimizing urban ...
