Land surface temperature is the surface of the earth’s energy change and the exchange process, which is an important index for a lot of scientific research. In this paper, the surface temperature changes of BeiBei district in Chongqing in the past 20 years were inverted in 6 time phases. The surface temperature inversion method of Landsat remote sensing data was studied, and the atmospheric correction method was adopted to conduct the inversion by using Landsat5TM and landsat8OLI-TIRS image data. The results showed that from 2004 to 2014, the area of high temperature area increased year by year, and the area of low temperature area also increased year by year.

AbstractUrbanization had a huge impact on the regional ecosystem net primary productivity (NPP). Although the urban heat island (UHI) caused by urbanization has been found to have a certain promoting effect on urban vegetation NPP, the factors on the impact still are not identified. In this study, the impact of urbanization on NPP was divided into direct impact (NPPdir) and indirect impact (NPPind), taking Kunming city as a case study area. Then, the spatial heterogeneity impact of land surface temperature (LST) on NPPind was analyzed based on the geographically weighted regression (GWR) model. The results indicated that NPP, LST, NPPdir and NPPind in 2001, 2009 and 2018 had significant spatial autocorrelation in Kunming based on spatial analytical model. LST had a positive impact on NPPind in the central area of Kunming. The positively correlation areas of LST on NPPind increased by 4.56%, and the NPPind caused by the UHI effect increased by an average of 4.423 gC m−2 from 2009 to 2018. GWR model can reveal significant spatial heterogeneity in the impacts of LST on NPPind. Overall, our findings indicated that LST has a certain role in promoting urban NPP.

Land surface temperature (LST) is a key parameter of surface physical process and plays an important significance to the energy balance in the world. In this paper, based on the knowledge of atmospheric radiative transfer and the comparability of two satellites, 7 undetermined variables was solved. Then, eliminate the atmospheric effects on the remote sensing images by atmospheric correction model. The retrieval of atmospheric elements and the surface parameters, will also be presented. It’s a effective way to measure the LST. Following the disposal information and plentiful data increasing, the powerful computing resource was required. The computing capability in single computer fall short of demand. So the grid computing conception is introduced. We build a LST measurement system by grid service, it can solve the problem commendably.

Abstract In recent years, with the intensification of problems like the depletion of traditional fossil fuels and environmental degradation, the development of new energy sources has become a key long-term strategy in China. Geothermal energy has attracted much attention due to its advantages of abundance and low environmental impact. Based on infrared data sensed remotely by the Landsat 8 satellite, this paper reports a verification of the atmospheric-correction method for extracting the surface temperature of the Dandong-Liaoyang geothermal region in all months of 2014. The method combines the abnormal points in the inversion results with the local sites of hot springs, structures, local historical air temperatures, and land surface temperature/emissivity data (MOD11_L2). Results showed that these data sources were spatially distributed in similar ways, which indicates that these results can be used to identify promising geothermal resources from publically available thermal-infrared remote-sensing data.

This work gives a first insight into the potential of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model to provide high-resolution vertical profiles for land surface temperature (LST) retrieval from thermal infrared (TIR) remote sensing. WRF numerical simulations were conducted to downscale NCEP Climate Forecast System Version 2 (CFSv2) reanalysis profiles, using two nested grids with horizontal resolutions of 12 km (G12) and 3 km (G03). We investigated the utility of these profiles for the atmospheric correction of TIR data and LST estimation, using the moderate resolution atmospheric transmission (MODTRAN) model and the Landsat 8 TIRS10 band. The accuracy evaluation was performed using 27 clear-sky cases over a radiosonde station in Southern Brazil. We included in the comparative analysis NASA’s Atmospheric Correction Parameter Calculator (ACPC) web-tool and profiles obtained directly from the NCEP CFSv2 reanalysis. The atmospheric parameters from ACPC, followed by those from CFSv2, were in better agreement with parameters calculated using in situ radiosondes. When applied into the radiative transfer equation (RTE) to retrieve LST, the best results (RMSE) were, in descending order: CFSv2 (0.55 K), ACPC (0.56 K), WRF G12 (0.79 K), and WRF G03 (0.82 K). Our findings suggest that there is no special need to increase the horizontal resolution of reanalysis profiles aiming at RTE-based LST retrieval. However, the WRF results were still satisfactory and promising, encouraging further assessments. We endorse the use of the well-known ACPC and recommend the NCEP CFSv2 profiles for TIR atmospheric correction and LST single-channel retrieval.
