Land use/land cover (LULC) change has been confirmed that have a significant impact on climate through various pathways that modulate land surface temperature (LST) and precipitation. However, there are no studies illustrated this link in the Saïss plain using remote sensing data. Thus, the aim of this study is to monitor the LST relationship between LULC and vegetation index change in the Saïss plain using GIS and Remote Sensing Data. We used 18 Landsat images to study the annual and interannual variation of LST with LULC (1988, 1999, 2009 and 2019). To highlight the effect of biomass on LST distribution, the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) was calculated, which is a very good indicator of biomass. The mapping results showed an increase in the arboriculture and urbanized areas to detriment of arable lands and rangelands. Based on statistical analyzes, the LST varies during the phases of plant growth in all seasons and that it is diversified due to the positional influence of LULC type. The variation of land surface temperature with NDVI shows a negative correlation. This explains the increase in the surface temperature in rangelands and arable land while it decreases in irrigated crops and arboriculture.

The three commonly used remote sensing land surface temperature retrieval methods are described, namely single-window algorithm, split window algorithm and multi-channel algorithm, which have their advantages and disadvantages. The land surface temperature (LST) of study area was retrieved with multi-source remote sensing data. LST of study area was retrieved with the split window algorithm on January 10, 2003 and November 19, 2003 which is comparatively analyzed with the LST result of ETM+data with the single-window algorithm and the LST result of ASTER data with multi channel algorithm in the same period. The results show that land surface temperature of different land features are significantly different, where the surface temperature of urban land is the highest, and that of rivers and lakes is the lowest, followed by woodland. It is concluded that the expansion of urban green space and protection of urban water can prevent or diminish the urban heat island.
