Abstract This study compares the normalized difference built-up index (NDBI) and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) as indicators of surface urban heat island effects in Landsat-8 OLI imagery by investigating the relationships between the land surface temperature (LST), NDBI and NDVI. The urban heat island (UHI) represents the phenomenon of higher atmospheric and surface temperatures occurring in urban area or metropolitan area than in the surrounding rural areas due to urbanization. With the development of remote sensing technology, it has become an important approach to urban heat island research. Landsat data were used to estimate the LST, NDBI and NDVI from four seasons for Iasi municipality area. This paper indicates than there is a strong linear relationship between LST and NDBI, whereas the relationship between LST and NDVI varies by season. This paper suggests, NDBI is an accurate indicator of surface UHI effects and can be used as a complementary metric to the traditionally applied NDVI.

The localization of Surface Urban Heat Island (SUHI) as a potential heat risk for the urban population was evaluated. The paper aimed to propose an approach to quantify and localize (SUHI) based on Landsat series TM, ETM+, OLI satellite imageries from the period 1996-2018 and recognize the Atmospheric Urban Heat Island (AUHI) effects from long term temperature measurements. Using the theoretical relation between the Normalized Difference Built-up Index (NDBI), the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and the LST (Land Surface Temperature), SUHIintensity and SUHIrisk maps were created from the combination of LST, NDVI, NDBI using threshold values to localize urban heat island in the Katowice conurbation. Negative values of SUHI intensity characterize areas where there is no vegetation, highly built-up areas, and areas with high surface temperatures. The urban grow – revealed from SUHI – and global climate change are acting together to strengthen the global AUHI effect in the region as the temperature measurements were indicated.

Urban Heat Island (UHI) adalah fenomena dimana suatu wilayah perkotaan lebih panas daripada wilayah disekitarnya. Faktor utama yang mempengaruhi terjadinya UHI adalah terjadinya konversi tutupan lahan vegetasi menjadi daerah terbangun akibat perkembangan kota. Hal tersebut mengakibatkan peningkatan suhu permukaan, dikarenakan kerapatan vegetasi yang berkurang dan meningkatnya kerapatan bangunan. Analisis yang digunakan adalah klasifikasi tak terbimbing untuk melihat perubahan tutupan lahan, analisis NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) untuk mengetahui perubahan vegetasi, analisis NDBI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) untuk mengetahui perubahan kerapatan bangunan, serta menggunakan LST (Land Surface Temperature) untuk mengetahui suhu permukaan suatu kota dan OLS (Ordinary Least Square) merupakan permodelan regresi berganda pada aplikasi ArcGis  digunakan untuk mengetahui hubungan antar variabel tersebut. Hasil dalam penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa suhu rata-rata Kota Magelang pada tahun 2000 sebesar 22,58°C meningkat menjadi 27,11°C pada tahun 2016. Artinya suhu rata-rata Kota Magelang mengalami kenaikan sebesar 4,53°C. Hubungan antara kerapatan bangunan (x1) dan kerapatan vegetasi (x2) terhadap suhu permukaan (y) diketahui melalui formula OLS yang dihasilkan yaitu Y= 5,61 X1 – 1,34 X2 + 2,4.Hal ini berarti jika kerapatan bangunan meningkat dan kerapatan vegetasi berkurang, maka suhu permukaan meningkat.

Pulau Panas Perkotaan (Urban Heat Island) adalah fenomena antropogenik akibat pengaruh urbanisasi. Kawasan perkotaan yang terbangun memiliki temperatur yang lebih hangat dibandingkan kawasan sekitarnya. Fenomena Pulau Panas Perkotaan di Kota Bandung diteliti menggunakan data Suhu Permukaan Tanah (Land Surface Temperature) yang diakuisisi dari satelit Landsat 8. Lima tahun data satelit dianalisis menggunakan piranti daring Google Earth Engine untuk menganalisis variasi temporal Pulau Panas Perkotaan di Kota Bandung dan sekitarnya. Suhu yang diakuisisi dari satelit dikonversi menjadi estimasi suhu permukaan dengan mempertimbangkan nilai Normalized Difference Vegetation Index. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah peta persebaran rata-rata dan median suhu permukaan di Cekungan Bandung tahun 2013-2018, serta grafik seri waktu suhu permukaan di 3 jenis tata guna lahan yang mewakili daerah kota (sekitar Jalan Sudirman), hutan kota (Hutan Babakan Siliwangi), dan hutan (Tamah Hutan Raya Djuanda). Suhu rata-rata Kota Bandung pada tahun 2013-2018 adalah 26,93 oC (median seluruh data) dan 25,57oC (rata-rata seluruh data). Sementara perbandingan berdasarkan tata guna lahan; daerah kota memiliki suhu permukaan rata-rata 27,30 oC, daerah hutan kota memiliki suhu 21,31oC, dan daerah hutan memiliki suhu 18,60oC. Peta persebaran suhu panas permukaan dari citra Landsat 8 menunjukkan bahwa daerah hutan secara konsisten memiliki suhu paling rendah, diikuti dengan hutan kota, dan kemudian daerah kota menjadi area yang paling panas dengan suhu maksimal hingga 33,73oC. Penggunaan Google Earth Engine yang berbasis komputasi awan sangat memudahkan pengolahan data citra satelit dalam jumlah besar yang selama ini tidak memungkinkan dilakukan dengan cara konvensional (mengunduh dan memproses di komputer).

The term “urban heat island” (UHI) describes increased surface and atmospheric temperatures in an urban core relative to surrounding non-urbanized areas. Although the phenomenon has been studied to a great extent throughout the world, it is less understood for Kathmandu, Nepal. This study used the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectro-radiometer (MODIS) 8-day product (MOD11A2) to evaluate land surface temperatures (LSTs), the MODIS-derived Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) 16-day product (MOD13Q1) to quantify land surface characteristics, and the MODIS annual land cover classification product (MCD12Q1) to identify major land cover classes. We evaluated the spatial correlation between significant changes in LSTs and NDVI between 2000–2018. Overall, urban (permanently developed areas) LSTs were consistently greater than non-urban (forests and dynamic agriculture lands) LSTs; however, the rate of increase in temperature was higher outside the central Kathmandu developed urban area. Furthermore, significant changes in NDVI values over time were more widespread and not always spatially coincident with significant changes in LST values, particularly for forested land areas. These results provide insight into systematic planning of open and green areas, construction of new infrastructure in peripheral areas, and highlight the challenges in applying traditional UHI conceptual models to rapidly developing urban areas such as Kathmandu, Nepal.

The aims of this study were to determine surface urban heat island (SUHI) effects and to analyze the land use/land cover (LULC) and land surface temperature (LST) changes for 11 time periods from the years 2002 to 2020 using Landsat time series images. Bursa, which is the fourth largest metropolitan city in Turkey, was selected as the study area, and Landsat multi-temporal images of the summer season were used. Firstly, the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), soil-adjusted vegetation index (SAVI), modified normalized difference water index (MNDWI) and index-based built-up index (IBI) were created using the bands of Landsat images, and LULC classes were determined by applying automatic thresholding. The LST values were calculated using thermal images and SUHI effects were determined. The results show that NDVI, SAVI, MNDWI and IBI indices can be used effectively for the determination of the urban, vegetation and water LULC classes for SUHI studies, with overall classification accuracies between 89.60% and 95.90% for the used images. According to the obtained results, generally the LST values increased for almost all land cover areas between the years 2002 and 2020. The SUHI magnitudes were computed by using two methods, and it was found that there was an important increase in the 18-year time period.

In this study, the spatio-temporal changes of urban heat island (UHI) in a mega city located in a semi-arid region and the relationships with normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and normalized difference built-up index (NDBI) are appraised using Landsat TM/OLI images with the help of ENVI and ArcGIS software. The results reveal that the relationships between NDBI, NDVI and land surface temperature (LST) varied by year in the study area and they are not suitable indices to study the land surface temperature in arid and semi-arid regions. The study also highlights the importance of weather conditions when appraising the relationship of these indices with land surface temperature. Overall, it can be concluded that LST in arid and steppe regions is most influenced by barren soil. As a result, built-up areas surrounded by soil or bituminous asphalt experience higher land surface temperatures compared to densely built-up areas. Therefore, apart from setting-up more green areas, an effective way to reduce the intensity of UHI in these regions is to develop the use of cool and smart pavements. The experiences from this paper may be of use to cities, many of which are struggling to adapt to a changing climate.
