Abstract Globally, the deteriorating Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect poses a significant threat to human health and undermines ecosystem stability. UHI mitigation strategies have been investigated utilized extensively within cities by provision of green, blue or gray infrastructures. However, urban land is precious limited for these interventions, making it challenging address this issue. Neighboring rural cover may serve as cooling source great potential mitigate through processes such heat absorption circulation. This study aims following questions: (1) what location neighboring effectively entire city (2) are key parameters landscape. We quantitative qualitative relationships between UHI, drawing on geographical environmental data from 30 Chinese 2000 2020. found that extending outward boundary, approximately half equivalent diameter city, had most pronounced impact mitigation. The number adjacency landscape patches (a patch homogeneous nonlinear basic unit pattern, distinct its surroundings) emerged two factors in mitigating with their individual reduce up 0.5 °C. proposed recommendations were avoid fragmentation enhance shape complexity distribution uniformity patches. work opens new avenues addressing high-temperature catastrophes perspective, which also promote coordinated development areas.

With the ongoing advancement of globalization significantly impacting ecological environment, continuous rise in Land Surface Temperature (LST) is increasingly jeopardizing human production and living conditions. This study aims to investigate seasonal variations LST its driving factors using mathematical models. Taking Wuhan Urban Agglomeration (WHUA) as a case study, it explores characteristics employs Principal Component Analysis (PCA) categorize factors. Additionally, compares traditional models with machine-learning select optimal model for this investigation. The main conclusions are follows. (1) WHUA’s exhibits significant differences among seasons demonstrates distinct spatial-clustering different seasons. (2) Compared geographic spatial models, Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) shows better explanatory power investigating effects LST. (3) Human Activity (HA) dominates influence throughout year positive correlation LST; Physical Geography (PG) negative Climate Weather (CW) show similar variation PG, peaking transition; Landscape Pattern (LP) weak LST, winter while being relatively inconspicuous summer transition. Finally, through comparative analysis multiple constructs framework exploring features aiming provide references guidance development WHUA regions.

Urbanisation is a significant driver of global climate change. It increases temperatures, impacting the health residents. To date, research on urban heat environments has focused society or ecology, overlooking value integrating two factors. The objective to integrate socio-ecological benefits, explore construction methods ecological-cooling networks, and provide reasonable guidance for planning, thus contributing alleviation risks improving thermal comfort. Using Fuzhou as an example, environmental risk framework was used construct environment assessment strategy based hazards (thermal comfort), exposure (human-development footprint), vulnerability (natural geographic conditions). source area identified evaluation results, ecological network constructed using circuit theory, key nodes were identified. Results showed that in 2005 2020, 3% 12% areas had higher risks, proportion low-risk 43% 28%, respectively. In sum, 54 locations, 124 corridors, 76 pinch points, 110 obstacle 12 stepping stones during corridors 2020. Compared with 2005, decreased by 1622.46 km2 average length corridor also 4.69 km.
