Dynamics of Land Surface Temperature in the Central Tien Shan Mountains: Analysis Based on RS Retrieved Data Validated With In Situ Measurements

Dynamics of Land Surface Temperature in the Central Tien Shan Mountains: Analysis Based on RS Retrieved Data Validated With In Situ Measurements

Permafrost conditions in mountain ranges are sensitive to regional land surface temperature (LST), among other factors. To explore that relationship, this study carried out 3 steps: (1) validated Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer 1-km daily LST data using data measured in situ, (2) used...
