Geoff Sherrington has a long blog on UHI and Australian temperature data “The Climate Sciences Use Of The Urban Heat Island Effect Is Pathetic And Misleading” over at Wattsupwiththat.com
A late comment by Ron Long December 21, 2018 at 3:21 am mentions “…I am totally confidant a UHI signal can be identified from satellite data.”
All done two decades ago in the 1990’s. But I think the “climate wars” have caused most of this work to be shelved and often links are dead. A 2005 blog of mine shows the famous NASA Hotlanta image – a ~2000 page of mine – Hotlanta from 2001 – Florida UHI’s –
– a few surviving NASA pages – 3 NASA UHI pages under “Land Surface” now dead links – 2015 NASA pages with full USA image – Recent looking pages – many various subjects but I found no UHI – I have never seen satellite UHI images from Australia or anywhere but the USA.
