The relationship between urban heat island and air pollutants and them with influencing factors in the Yangtze River Delta, China

The relationship between urban heat island (UHI) and air pollution is worth exploring. We used land surface temperature (LST) and air quality data investigated the spatio-temporal distribution of UHI intensity (UHII) and six air pollutants of carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), ozone (O3),...
