Abstract
The article examines the shape, intensity, and seasonal regime of the surface urban heat island (SUHI) in Kranj. The analysis is based on data obtained through remote sensing from the Landsat 8 satellite. Seasonal variations in the urban heat island are presented, and the impact of land use on its intensity is also assessed. The study identifies areas in Kranj with higher levels of overheating and highlights the important mitigating effects of green spaces within the urban area and its surroundings.
