The Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) measures outdoor temperature and ground surface temperature at 95 observation points, but monthly ground temperatures by depth, which are important for using geothermal heat, are only provided for nine points. Since the ground temperature is known in the vicinity of only nine observation points, it is very difficult to predict underground temperature in the field. This study develops a simplified regression equation for predicting underground temperature distributions, compares the prediction results with the experimental data of Korea’s representative areas and the data measured in this study, and examines the validity of the developed regression equation. The regression equation for predicting temperature amplitudes at ground depths of 1.0, 3.0, and 5.0 m was derived using the amplitude ratio of outdoor temperature and surface temperature provided by KMA at nine points in Korea from 2006 to 2015. The coefficient of determination was as high as 0.93 (95% confidence level). In addition, the field-measured ground temperature distribution at a depth of 3 m was in good agreement with the predicted ground temperature distribution in Changwon districts for the whole of 2017.

AbstractThe thermal conductivity and diffusivity of porous ice accreted on spherical and spheroidal hailstone models were measured over a density range of 620–915 kg m−3. By scanning the evolving surface temperature distributions during cooling in a cold airflow the thermal conductivity was varied in iterative fashion until the internal heat flux produced the correct surface temperature distribution. The results indicate a linear dependence of the thermal conductivity,ki, and diffusivity,αi, on density. For example, lowering the density by 10% lowerskiby 15%. Within the range of cloud conditions, the density variations affect the thermal parameters more than temperature does. The results also indicate a continuous decrease of the thermal conductivity from bulk ice via consolidated porous ice to loosely packed snow.

The urban heat island occurs due to the causes of the urbanization process, of which the main reason is an increase in population density leading to the changes in artificial objects on the ground surface. Recently, using the Split - Window algorithm for two thermal infrared spectral channels with wavelengths of 11 µm and 12 µm to calculate the daily surface temperature with two times of day and night serves to determine the change of land surface temperature. This method is intended to improve the reliability of the results and high technical efficiency. This study uses Sentinel - 3 SLSTR data to determine urban heat island in the districts of Ho Chi Minh City compared to areas bordering the city on May 15th 2020. In addition, population density is calculated according to the results of the census in 2020. The linear relationship between the urban heat island and population density was built with the coefficient of determination R2=0.64.

Thermoplasmonic structures produce highly localized temperature fields. For simplicity, researchers often use a superposition of representative spheres to model the temperature in the non-conductive region (presumably a substrate) near the metallic structures deposited on the substrate. The superposition model provides reasonable solutions, but direct comparison to experiments is difficult because local temperature variations at the nanoscale are not accessible. Moreover, the model requires several approximations. Therefore, we compare this model to other analytic models to determine the efficacy of the superposition approach in capturing temperature distributions close to the surface of the substrate and to capture realistic boundary conditions. Results indicate that a 3D analytic model can relax approximations required for the superposition model and show that the superposition model consistently over-predicts the surface temperature.

In Indonesia is the Iyang-Argopuro Volcano Complex. The Research uses remote sensing methods and gravity methods conducted to study thermal anomalies and subsurface structures using Data images of Landsat 8 satellite and a data gravity of GGMPlus satellite. Moreover, the study aims to estimate the number of hoisting manifestations of the earth's heat at the compound of the Iyang-Argopuro volcano. Landsat 8 satellite image data is a spectral band (band 1-9) and a thermal band (band 10 and 11). The data was done in radiometric corrections, radiance correction, and reflex corrections, and was thus obtained a value of ground surface temperature (LST). The data was done in radiometric corrections, radiance correction, and reflectance corrections, to get an LST value. Processing data gravity of GGMPlus satellites with a bouguer correction, terrain corrections up to get a Complete Bouguer Anomaly (ABL) value. Furthermore, the ABL value consisting of regional and local anomalies is separated using an upward continuation filter to obtain local anomaly values. The results obtained from this study are five points of geothermal manifestation locations in the Iyang-Argopuro Volcano Complex which are located in the northern, central, southern and eastern parts. Manifestations in the northern, central, and northeastern parts have ground surface temperatures of 24-31 ̊C. While manifestations in the central and eastern parts have a surface temperature of land 21-31 ̊C. The high ground temperature values at the five locations were associated with low gravity values ranging from -20 mGal to -10 mGal. The low gravity value is assumed to have a rock structure with a low-density value. Low-density rock structures have the possibility of an outflow zone causing the soil surface temperature to be relatively high.

The study of strain effects in thermally-forced rock masses has gathered growing interest from engineering geology researchers in the last decade. In this framework, digital photogrammetry and infrared thermography have become two of the most exploited remote surveying techniques in engineering geology applications because they can provide useful information concerning geomechanical and thermal conditions of these complex natural systems where the mechanical role of joints cannot be neglected. In this paper, a methodology is proposed for generating point clouds of rock masses prone to failure, combining the high geometric accuracy of RGB optical images and the thermal information derived by infrared thermography surveys. Multiple 3D thermal point clouds and a high-resolution RGB point cloud were separately generated and co-registered by acquiring thermograms at different times of the day and in different seasons using commercial software for Structure from Motion and point cloud analysis. Temperature attributes of thermal point clouds were merged with the reference high-resolution optical point cloud to obtain a composite 3D model storing accurate geometric information and multitemporal surface temperature distributions. The quality of merged point clouds was evaluated by comparing temperature distributions derived by 2D thermograms and 3D thermal models, with a view to estimating their accuracy in describing surface thermal fields. Moreover, a preliminary attempt was made to test the feasibility of this approach in investigating the thermal behavior of complex natural systems such as jointed rock masses by analyzing the spatial distribution and temporal evolution of surface temperature ranges under different climatic conditions. The obtained results show that despite the low resolution of the IR sensor, the geometric accuracy and the correspondence between 2D and 3D temperature measurements are high enough to consider 3D thermal point clouds suitable to describe surface temperature distributions and adequate for monitoring purposes of jointed rock mass.
