Article Synopsis
- Land cover changes (LCCs) significantly impact local surface temperatures, with a global average temperature increase of 0.08 K from 2006 to 2015, varying by latitude.
- Cropland expansion mainly contributed to cooling effects in northern mid-latitudes, while forest-related LCCs were more likely to cause warming, highlighting an imbalance in their impacts.
- This research underscores the importance of understanding realistic LCCs for developing effective land management and climate adaptation strategies, as warming LCCs tend to be stronger and more frequent compared to cooling ones.
An analysis of the atmospheric impact on ground brightness temperature (Tg) is performed for numerous land surface types at commonly-used frequencies (i.e., 1.

Several portable reference reflectance targets were deployed across the test site. The radiometric performance of the UAV-HYPER sensor was assessed in terms of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the calibration accuracy.
