چکیده

Land Surface Temperature (LST) can be calculated through a thermal infrared remote sensing data. It can record the apparent temperature of the Earth’s surface by measuring the radiant energy exiting its surface. With the advent of satellite images and digital image processing software, now it is possible to calculate LST. In this study, LST for Devikulam taluk was derived using Single Window algorithm (SW) with the use of Landsat-8 (Path-144 and Row-53) Thermal Infrared Sensor (TIRS) data of 100m resolution. Emissivity was derived with the help of NDVI proportion of vegetation technique for which Operational Land Imager (OLI) bands 4 and 5 (30 m resolution) were used. The results showed that surface temperature was high in the barren regions whereas it was low in the thick vegetation cover regions. As the SW algorithm uses both OLI and TIRS bands, the LST derived using them were more reliable and accurate.

A Survey of Landscape Metrics and Land-use/land-cover Structures on Urban Heat Islands Surface: A Case Study on Urmia City, Iran

Urbanization is developing unprecedentedly on a global scale. One of the chief repercussions of urbanization, caused by man-made alterations in land-use/land-cover (LULC), is the formation of urban heat islands. Albeit, differences among landscape structures and its accompanied effects on the environment are mostly neglected. Accordingly, the main objective of this study is to survey the variou...
