Summary
Description Global Urban Heat Island (UHI) Data Set, 2013 Average Summer Nighttime Minimum Surface Temperature (29968026924).jpg | The Global Urban Heat Island (UHI) Data Set, 2013, part of the Satellite-Derived Environmental Indicators collection, estimates the average land surface temperature within urban areas in degrees Celsius (summer daytime maximum and nighttime minimum), as well as the difference between those temperatures and the temperatures in surrounding rural areas, defined as a 10km buffer around the urban extent. Urban extents are taken from SEDAC's Global Rural-Urban Mapping Project, Version 1 (GRUMPv1), and land surface temperatures are taken from SEDAC's Global Summer Land Surface Temperature (LST) Grids, 2013, which are derived from the Aqua Level-3 Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Version 5 global daytime and nighttime LST 8-day composite data (MYD11A2).
