Remote sensing for urban heat and cool islands evaluation in semi-arid areas
Cities are experiencing rapid population growth and consequently extensive urbanization. Land-use/land-cover change is one of the important elements worldwide, which significantly affect the environment. This study aims to describe the emergence of urban heat and cool islands as a result of changes in land-use/land-cover. Land surface temperature over a 32-year period in Isfahan city, Iran was ...
متن کاملAssessment of Urban Heat Islands Using Remotely Sensed Data
Thermal infrared satellite sensor images are widely used for assessing the thermal urban environment as well as for identifying the Urban Heat Islands (UHI) in highly urbanized areas. In this study, the relationship between urban growth and UHI in the megacity of Istanbul was investigated using the Landsat 5 TM satellite sensor data and temperature recordings obtained from the meteorological st...
متن کاملUrban Storage Heat Flux Estimation Using Aster Remote Sensing Data
As one of urban eco-environmental contents, urban heat island is very significant. Nowadays, the temperature in urban is higher than the surrounding natural terrain, as the result of vegetation cover declining and impervious surface increasing, coupled with the influence of anthropogenic heat discharge. In recent years, it is possible to study the urban heat island and its formation mechanism, ...
متن کاملA satellite remote sensing based assessment of urban heat island in Lanzhou city , northwest China
As a promising application, quantitative remote sensing of urban heat island (UHI) could facilitate our understanding of urban/suburban environment and its relationship with urbanization. This paper investigates the urban heat island effect of Lanzhou, China, a densely built up city in a valley, based on Landsat ETM+ image acquired on April 22, 2000, whose spatial resolution is sufficient for m...
متن کاملAnalysis of LAI in Iran based on MODIS satellite data
This study was performed to evaluate the extent of leaf area in Iran from (2002) to (2016) using Remote sensing. For this purpose, we extracted data collection and leaf area index for the Iranian territory from MODIS website. The database was established with programming in MATLAB software to perform mathematical and Statistical calculations repeated. After the analysis of the data in this soft...
