Understanding Land Surface Temperature Patterns in Istanbul: The Role of Blue–Green and Built-Environment Predictors Using Explainable Machine Learning

Rapid urbanization and the replacement of vegetated surfaces by impervious materials can substantially alter urban thermal environments, while water bodies, topography, and coastal setting may further modify these patterns. Understanding how these factors contribute to land surface temperature (LST), particularly acros...
