The Relationship

Fast-growing crops have been evolved in North China, accompanied by intense paddy expansion, leading to dramatic impacts on the agricultural environment. Among these environmental issues, the impact of paddy expansion on land surface temperature is still unclear. In the present study, based on Landsat images and MODIS land surface temperature (LST) products, the crop pattern and monthly LST in the northern Sanjiang Plain are obtained. A 1 km scale grid unit is built to investigate the relationship between LST and paddy expansion. The results obtained from the study are as follows. Firstly, for crop patterns, cropland planting is given priority to paddy fields, accompanied by an aggregated pattern, while upland crops present a discrete pattern. Secondly, for LST changes during the growing season, the maximum LST occurs in June, and the lowest values occur in October across the whole region. In addition, the LST of paddy fields is lower compared with that of upland crops for the whole growing season. Thirdly, at the 1 km grid scale, the relationship between monthly LST and paddy field ratio is significantly negative, and better represented by a cubic function rather than a linear fit. Finally, LST decreases with the increased fraction of the rice paddy area more rapidly when rice paddy is aggregated and accounted for by more than 80% of each study grid. The findings of this study are important to guide agricultural production and to better understand the environmental effects of paddy expansion in cold regions.

Agriculture is the most important and most dependent economic activity and influenced by climatic conditions as the climate elements represented by solar radiation, temperature, wind and relative humidity. Therefore, is necessary that analyze and understand the relationship between climate and agriculture. The aim of this study to assessment the relationship between land surface temperature (LST) and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) for three regions of Diyala Governorate in Iraq (Al Muqdadya, Baladrooz, and Baquba) by through using of remote sensing techniques and geographic information system (GIS).The Normalized difference vegetation index NDVI and land surface temperature (LST) were used in two of the Landsat-5 ETM + and Landsat-8 OLI satellite imagery during the years 1999 and 2019.  The results showed that increased in NDVI and decreased in LST for 2019, while for 1999 increased in LST and decreased in NDVI for the three regions. Finally, the regression was used to obtain that correlation between LST and NDVI. It was concluded that the correlation coefficient between NDVI and LST is negative, where the strongest correlation was 0.76 for Baquba and weakest correlation was 0.55 for Muqdadyia.

The Impact

Land use and land cover change (LUCC) has been increasingly recognized as having important effects on climate systems. Paddy fields, one kind of artificial wetland, have seen a significant increase in the Sanjiang Plain, China since 2000 and have become the most typical LUCC at the regional scale. Against this background, in this paper, we discuss the effects of this artificial wetland increase on surface temperature, in addition to its driving mechanisms. Firstly, the spatiotemporal variations of land surface temperature (LST) and its two driving variables (albedo and latent heat flux (LE)) in the Sanjiang Plain are analyzed and assessed based on remote sensing observation information from 2001 to 2015. Our results from both spatial distribution difference and time series analysis show that paddy field expansion led to day-time cooling and night-time warming over the study area. However, the LST changes show different characteristics and magnitudes in the spring (May to June) compared to the other months of the growing season (July to September). The daytime cooling trend is found to be −0.3842 K/year and the warming trend at night 0.1988 K/year during the period 2001 to 2015, resulting in an overall cooling effect in May and June. In July–September, the LST changes have the same sign but a smaller magnitude, with a −0.0686 K/year temperature trend seen for the day-time and a 0.0569 K/year increase for the night-time. As a consequence, a pronounced decrease in the diurnal temperature range is detected in the growing season, especially in spring. Furthermore, albedo and LE are demonstrated to be very sensitive to land use changes, especially in the earlier periods of the growing season. Correlation analysis between LST and albedo and LE also indicates the dominant role played by evapotranspiration in paddy fields in regulating local temperature.

Rapid urbanization greatly alters land surface vegetation cover and heat distribution, leading to the development of the urban heat island (UHI) effect and seriously affecting the healthy development of cities and the comfort of living. As an indicator of urban health and livability, monitoring the distribution of land surface temperature (LST) and discovering its main impacting factors are receiving increasing attention in the effort to develop cities more sustainably. In this study, we analyzed the spatial distribution patterns of LST of the city of Wuhan, China, from 2013 to 2019. We detected hot and cold poles in four seasons through clustering and outlier analysis (based on Anselin local Moran’s I) of LST. Furthermore, we introduced the geographical detector model to quantify the impact of six physical and socio-economic factors, including the digital elevation model (DEM), index-based built-up index (IBI), modified normalized difference water index (MNDWI), normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), population, and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) on the LST distribution of Wuhan. Finally, to identify the influence of land cover on temperature, the LST of croplands, woodlands, grasslands, and built-up areas was analyzed. The results showed that low temperatures are mainly distributed over water and woodland areas, followed by grasslands; high temperatures are mainly concentrated over built-up areas. The maximum temperature difference between land covers occurs in spring and summer, while this difference can be ignored in winter. MNDWI, IBI, and NDVI are the key driving factors of the thermal values change in Wuhan, especially of their interaction. We found that the temperature of water area and urban green space (woodlands and grasslands) tends to be 5.4 °C and 2.6 °C lower than that of built-up areas. Our research results can contribute to the urban planning and urban greening of Wuhan and promote the healthy and sustainable development of the city.

Abstract. Spatiotemporal mapping and modeling of Land Surface Temperature (LST) variations and characterization of parameters affecting these variations are of great importance in various environmental studies. The aim of this study is a spatiotemporal modeling the impact of surface characteristics variations on LST variations for the studied area in Samalghan Valley. For this purpose, a set of satellite imagery and meteorological data measured at the synoptic station during 1988–2018, were used. First, single-channel algorithm, Tasseled Cap Transformation (TCT) and Biophysical Composition Index (BCI) were employed to estimate LST and surface biophysical parameters including brightness, greenness and wetness and BCI. Also, spatial modeling was used to modeling of terrain parameters including slope, aspect and local incident angle based on DEM. Finally, the principal component analysis (PCA) and the Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) were used to modeling and investigate the impact of surface characteristics variations on LST variations. The results indicated that surface characteristics vary significantly for case study in spatial and temporal dimensions. The correlation coefficient between the PC1 of LST and PC1s of brightness, greenness, wetness, BCI, DEM, and solar local incident angle were 0.65, −0.67, −0.56, 0.72, −0.43 and 0.53, respectively. Furthermore, the coefficient coefficient and RMSE between the observed LST variation and modelled LST variation based on PC1s of brightness, greenness, wetness, BCI, DEM, and local incident angle were 0.83 and 0.14, respectively. The results of study indicated the LST variation is a function of s terrain and surface biophysical parameters variations.

The Impact

Land surface temperature (LST) is an essential parameter in the climate system whose dynamics indicate climate change. This study aimed to assess the impact of multitemporal land use and land cover (LULC) change on LST due to urbanization in Hefei City, Anhui Province, China. The research methodology consisted of four main components: Landsat data collection and preparation; multitemporal LULC classification; time-series LST dataset reconstruction; and impact of multitemporal LULC change on LST. The results revealed that urban and built-up land continuously increased from 2.05% in 2001 to 13.25% in 2020. Regarding the impact of LULC change on LST, the spatial analysis demonstrated that the LST difference between urban and non-urban areas had been 1.52 K, 3.38 K, 2.88 K and 3.57 K in 2001, 2006, 2014 and 2020, respectively. Meanwhile, according to decomposition analysis, regarding the influence of LULC change on LST, the urban and built-up land had an intra-annual amplitude of 20.42 K higher than other types. Thus, it can be reconfirmed that land use and land cover changes due to urbanization in Hefei City impact the land surface temperature.
