The following paper analyzes the seasonal behavior of surface temperature and vegetation conditions from Landsat 8 satellite images in Iguatu, located in South-central Ceará, Brazil. The guiding method was the Urban Climate System (UCS) along with works with specific literature. Concerning the LSTs during the wet season, the urban area recorded 30.8°C, whereas the countryside verified milder thermal conditions than in downtown, especially in the southwestern region (19.2°C to 23.1°C). The NDVI values in April (wet season) for the urban area and part of the suburbs showed (0.00) because of civil constructions and little vegetation present in the area, except for the surroundings of the Bastiana and Cocobó lagoons – ranging between (0.59 and 0.79), which represents a green area. In August (dry season), there was an expressive spatial distribution of surface temperature around 32 °C. The NDVI was (-0.01) in the densely occupied area and (0.67) in the urban lagoons during the same period. The land use and its plant cover reflect significantly in the distribution and intensity of surface temperatures, as verified in the research.

This study investigated how changes in land surface temperature (LST) during 2004 and 2014 were attributable to zoning-based land use type in Seoul in association with the building coverage ratio (BCR), floor area ratio (FAR), and a normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI). We retrieved LSTs and NDVI data from satellite images, Landsat TM 5 for 2004 and Landsat 8 TIRS for 2014 and combined them with parcel-based land use information, which contained data on BCR, FAR, and zoning-based land use type. The descriptive analysis results showed a rise in LST for the low- and medium-density residential land, whereas significant LST decreases were found in high-density residential, semi-residential, and commercial areas over the time period. Statistical results further supported these findings, yielding statistically significant negative coefficient values for all interaction variables between higher-density land use types and a year-based dummy variable. The findings appear to be related to residential densification involving the provision of more high-rise apartment complexes and government efforts to secure more parks and green spaces through urban redevelopment and renewal projects.

The Operational Simplified Surface Energy Balance (SSEBop) model uses the principle of satellite psychrometry to produce spatially explicit actual evapotranspiration (ETa) with remotely sensed and weather data. The temperature difference (dT) in the model is a predefined parameter quantifying the difference between surface temperature at bare soil and air temperature at canopy level. Because dT is derived from the average-sky net radiation based primarily on climate data, validation of the dT estimation is critical for assuring a high-quality ETa product. We used the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data to evaluate the SSEBop dT estimation for the conterminous United States. MODIS data (2008–2017) were processed to compute the 10-year average land surface temperature (LST) and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) at 1 km resolution and 8-day interval. The observed dT (dTo) was computed from the LST difference between hot (NDVI < 0.25) and cold (NDVI > 0.7) pixels within each 2° × 2° sampling block. There were enough hot and cold pixels within each block to create dTo timeseries in the West Coast and South-Central regions. The comparison of dTo and modeled dT (dTm) showed high agreement, with a bias of 0.8 K and a correlation coefficient of 0.88 on average. This study concludes that the dTm estimation from the SSEBop model is reliable, which further assures the accuracy of the ETa estimation.

This research assessed the micro-level Land Surface Temperature (LST) dynamics in response to Land Cover Type Transformation (LCTT) at Khulna City Corporation Ward No 9, 14, 16 from 2001 to 2019, through raster-based analysis in geo-spatial environment. Satellite images (Landsat 5 TM and Landsat 8 OLI) were utilized to analyze the LCTT and its influences on LST change. Different indices like Normalized Difference Moisture Index (NDMI), Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Normalized Difference Buildup Index (NDBI) were adopted to show the relationship against the LST dynamics individually. Most likelihood supervised image classification and land cover change direction analysis shows that about 27.17%, 17.83% and 4.73% buildup area has increased at Ward No 9, 14, 16 correspondingly. On the other hand, the distribution of change in average LST shows that water, vacant land, and buildup area recorded the highest increase in temperature by 2.720C, 4.150C, 4.590C, respectively. The result shows the average LST increased from 25.800C to 27.150C in Ward No 9, 26.840C to 27.230C in Ward No 14 and 26.870C to 27.120C in Ward No 16. Here, the most responsible factor is the transformation of land cover in buildup areas.

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate multi-temporal land surface temperature (LST) and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) changes of Konya in Turkey using remotely sensed data. Konya is located in the semi-arid central Anatolian region of Turkey and hosts many important wetland sites including Salt Lake. Six images taken by Landsat-5 TM and Landsat 8- OLI satellites were used as the basic data source. These raw images were taken in 1984, 2011 and 2014 intended as long-term and short-term. Firstly, those raw images was corrected radiometric and geometrically within the scope of project. Three mosaic images were obtained by using the full-frame images of Landsat-5 TM / 8- OLI which had been already transformed comparison each other. Then, Land Surface Temperature (LST), Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) maps have been produced to determine the dimension of the drought. The obtained results showed that surface temperature rates in the basin increased about 5°C between 1984 and 2014 as long periods, increased about 2-3°C between 2011and 2014 as short periods. Meteorological data supports the increase in temperature.

ABSTRACTThe rapid population growth and development of infrastructure in the Bandung basin has triggered an uncontrolled land use changes. The changes of land use will impact on land surface temperature distribution. Finally, these changes will give influence on climate. Land surface temperature is one of the important climatic elements in the energy balance. Changes in land surface temperature variations will potentially change other elements of the climate. The purpose of this paper is to obtain and to analyze the changes of surface temperature distribution in Bandung basin using multi temporal satellite data processing that is Landsat 5 and Landsat 8 in 2004, 2009 and 2014. Near Infrared Channel (Near Infrared/NIR) and visible wave channels (Visible band) have used to obtain the value Normalized Difference Vegetation Index/NDVI index and Albedo. Land and vegetation emissivity value and thermal band have used to determine land surface temperature. The results showed that the surface temperature distribution of Bandung basin has been changes characterized by the presence of two hotspot characters i.e. hot areas in urban and hot areas in non-urban area. The area is characterized by decreasing vegetation index values, increasing albedo values and increasing on surface temperature.  Land Surface Temperatures average value increased by 1.3°C. Land surface temperature tends to rise supposed as a result of changes in vegetated area into open area and the build area  Keywords: land surface temperature, normalized difference vegetation index, albedoABSTRAKPesatnya pertumbuhan penduduk dan perkembangan infrastruktur di cekungan Bandung telah memicu perubahan tutupan lahan yang tidak terkendali. Perubahan tutupan lahan akan mempengaruhi distribusi suhu permukaan. Hal tersebut pada akhirnya nanti akan mempengaruhi iklim. Suhu permukaan merupakan salah satu unsur iklim yang penting dalam neraca energi. Perubahan variasi suhu permukaan berpotensi mengubah unsur unsur iklim yang lainnya. Tujuan makalah ini adalah untuk mengetahui dan menganalisis perubahan distribusi suhu permukaan di cekungan Bandung melalui pengolahan data satelit multi waktu yaitu Landsat 5 dan Landsat 8 tahun 2004, 2009, 2014 dan 2016. Kanal Inframerah Dekat (Near Infrared/NIR) dan kanal gelombang tampak (Visible band) digunakan untuk memperoleh nilai Indeks Kehijauan Vegetasi (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index/NDVI) dan Albedo. Nilai emisivitas dari tanah dan vegetasi serta Band termal digunakan untuk menentukan nilai Suhu Permukaan Tanah.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa di cekungan Bandung telah terjadi perubahan distribusi suhu permukaan yang dicirikan oleh adanya dua karakter hotspot yaitu daerah panas di daerah urban dan daerah panas di daerah non-urban. Daerah tersebut dicirikan menurunnya nilai indeks vegetasi, menurunnya nilai albedo dan meningkatnya nilai suhu permukaan tanah. Nilai rataan Suhu Permukaan Tanah tahun 2005 - 2014 meningkat sebesar 1.3°C. Kecenderungan naik ini diduga sebagai akibat adanya perubahan tutupan lahan bervegetasi menjadi daerah yang lebih terbuka dan daerah terbangun.Kata kunci: suhu permukaan, indeks kehijauan vegetasi, albedo

Abstract The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of Fasciola hepatica infection in cattle slaughterhouses, as well as its association with climatic/environmental factors (derived from satellite data), seasonality and climate regions in two states in Mexico. Condemned livers from slaughtered animals were obtained from three abattoirs in the states of Puebla and Veracruz. The overall prevalence of the parasite in cattle between January and December of 2017 was 20.6% (1407 out of 6834); the highest rate of condemnation was observed in Veracruz (26.3%; tropical climate), and the lowest rate was found in Puebla (15.5%; temperate climate). The seasonal prevalence of fluke infection was 18.6%, 14.8% and 28.4% during the wet season, and 17.1%, 12.4% and 22.8% during the dry season in the three abattoir sites, located in the districts of Zacatlán, Teziutlán and Ciudad Alemán, respectively. Liver condemnations due to bovine fasciolosis were prevalent in the Zacatlán, Teziutlán and Ciudad Alemán districts during summer, autumn and summer, respectively. Using generalized estimating equations analysis, we determined six variables – rainfall (wet/dry), land surface temperature day, land surface temperature night, normalized difference vegetation index, seasonality and climate regions (temperate/tropical) – to be significantly associated with the prevalence of condemned livers. Climate region was the variable most strongly associated with F. hepatica infection (odds ratio (OR) 266.59; 95% confidence interval (CI): 241.90–353.34), followed by wet and dry seasons (OR 25.56; 95% CI: 20.56–55.67).

AbstractDrought is the absence or below-required supply of precipitation, runoff and or moisture for an extended time period. Modelling drought is relevant in assessing drought incidence and pattern. This study aimed to model the spatial variation and incidence of the 2018 drought in Brandenburg using GIS and remote sensing. To achieve this, we employed a Multi-Criteria Approach (MCA) by using three parameters including Precipitation, Land Surface Temperature and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). We acquired the precipitation data from Deutsche Wetterdienst, Land Surface Temperature and NDVI from Landsat 8 imageries on the USGS Earth Explorer. The datasets were analyzed using ArcGIS 10.7. The information from these three datasets was used as parameters in assessing drought prevalence using the MCA. The MCA was used in developing the drought model, ‘PLAN’, which was used to classify the study area into three levels/zones of drought prevalence: moderate, high and extreme drought. We went further to quantify the agricultural areas affected by drought in the study area by integrating the land use map. Results revealed that 92% of the study area was severely and highly affected by drought especially in districts of Oberhavel, Uckermark, Potsdam-Staedte, and Teltow-Flaeming. Finding also revealed that 77.54% of the total agricultural land falls within the high drought zones. We advocated for the application of drought models (such as ‘PLAN’), that incorporates flexibility (tailoring to study needs) and multi-criteria (robustness) in drought assessment. We also suggested that adaptive drought management should be championed using drought prevalence mapping.

Kabupaten Bogor merupakan salah satu kabupaten yang saat ini pembangunannya cukup berkembang. Pada tahun 2016 jumlah penduduk di Kabupaten Bogor berjumlah 5.715.009 jiwa. Bertambahnya penduduk menyebabkan berkurangnya lahan dengan tutupan vegetasi menjadi daerah yang terbangun, dari bertambahnya lahan terbangun meyebabkan meningkatnya suhu di Kabupaten Bogor. Dengan pemanfaatan Sistem Informasi Geografis (SIG) dapat diketahui peningkatan suhu akibat dari padatnya bangunan di Kabupaten Bogor. Melalui pengolahan Citra Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS C1 Level-1 dengan ukuran 30 x 30 m tahun 2018 digunakan metode Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) untuk mengetahui indeks kerapatan vegetasi, Normalized Difference Built Index (NDBI) untuk mengetahui kerapatan bangunan, dan metode Land Surface Temperature (LST) untuk mengetahui suhu permukaan di Kabupaten Bogor. Hasil yang didapatkan dari penelitian ini adalah semakin rapatnya bangunan maka suhu semakin tinggi dan sebaliknya, begitu juga dengan luas dari wilayah yang mengalami kenaikan suhu.
