Mapping Africa's Climate Extremes
The thermal equator, the latitudinal position of maximum mean annual surface temperature, represents a dynamic boundary in Earth's climate system. This study presents a high‐resolution, longitudinally segmented analysis of Africa's thermal equator using CHELSA V2.1 baseline data and downscaled CMIP6 projections under the SSP3‐7.0 scenario. I delineated the equator for 1981–2010, 2011–2040 and 2041–2070 and quantified shifts across longitudinal tr…
Monitoring urban dynamics using time-series satellite imagery in Dodoma, Tanzania
This study examines the changes in Dodoma between 2014 and 2021 using Landsat and night-time light (NTL) data. The results indicate that the built-up areas have grown by 47.1 km2 between 2014 and 2021. The change point detection results of NTL time series data show that at one period (location 43) of the time series, the probability of a change is very high (> 0.70). This location corresponds to the year 2017. The Bayesian structural time series …
Using land cover, population, and night light data to assess urban expansion in Kimberley, South Africa
Information on urban expansion is a significant input in forecasting upcoming land cover and land use changes in a city. This study combines Landsat 8, night-time lights, and population data to assess urban expansion in Kimberley, South Africa from 2013 to 2018. This study used a post-classification change detection approach to measure urban expansion. Urban and non-urban land use classes where the two classes mapped and evaluated for this analys…
