Overview

Time-series analysis shows increasing land surface temperature and vegetation loss in Vietnam and Cambodia, indicating urban heat island effects.

Key Points

  • Land surface temperature increased consistently in rapidly urbanizing provinces of Vietnam and Cambodia.
  • Urban heat islands formed in Battambang and Binh Duong, both showing notable rises in minimum LST since 2017.
  • Normalized difference vegetation index revealed significant vegetation loss correlating with urban expansion from 2013 to 2024.
  • Findings emphasize the importance of managing urban microclimates in Southeast Asia to mitigate UHI effects.
