AB  - The Landsat 8 satellites have retrieved land surface temperature (LST) resampled 
      at a 30-m spatial resolution since 2013, but the urban climate studies frequently 
      use a limited number of images due to the problems related to missing data over 
      the city of interest. This paper endorses a procedure for building a long-term 
      gap-free LST data set in an urban area using the high-resolution Landsat 8 
      imagery. The study is applied on 94 images available through 2013-2018 over 
      Bucharest (Romania). The raw images containing between 1.1% and 58.4% missing LST 
      data were filled in using the Data INterpolating Empirical Orthogonal Functions 
      (DINEOF) algorithm implemented in the sinkr R packages. The resulting 
      high-spatial-resolution gap-filled land surface temperature data set was used to 
      explore the LST climatology over Bucharest (Romania) an urban area, at a monthly, 
      seasonal, and annual scale. The performance of the gap-filling method was checked 
      using a cross-validation procedure, and the results pledge for the development of 
      an LST-based urban climatology.
