Abstract

With the development of urbanization and excessive interference of humans in the environment, large amounts of agricultural and forest areas have been replaced by houses, industrial areas, and other infrastructures. One of the negative effects of industrialization is the sharp increase in the temperature of cities and the creation of temperature differences between urban areas and the surrounding areas, which is known as the heat island. The main goal of this research is to estimate the temperature of the earth''s surface and investigate the effects of urbanization on the temperature of the earth''s surface in the city of Tabriz. For this purpose, satellite data and remote sensing because of their wide coverage; are Used. In this method, the temperature of the earth''s surface has been calculated using the information of a thermal band (Landsat 8 satellite) and after conforming to the land use map, the temperature of different uses of Tabriz city has been estimated. The results of the research show that there is a direct relationship between the spatial-temporal changes in the cities (including the change in land use and the reduction of vegetation mass) in the city of Tabriz and the increase in the temperature of the earth''s surface, and satellite images (remote sensing) are a very suitable tool for evaluating heat and temperature. They are the surface of the earth.

گسترش شهرنشینی و پیشرفت فعالیتهای صنعتی از یکسو و استفاده روزافزون از مواد شیمیایی و صنعتی جدید در این روند از سوی دیگر موجب تغییراتی در شهرها میشود که یکی از این تغییرات، تشکیل جزیره حرارتی یا به عبارت بهتر تغییرات دمایی مناطق شهری نسبت به مناطق اطراف شهر میباشد. در این پژوهش به بررسی دمای سطح زمین در شهر تبریز پرداختهشده است زیرا ساختوسازها و سطوح نفوذناپذیر شهری از طریق جذب و ذخیره انرژی خورشیدی اثر گرمایشی دارند. جهت تحلیل دمای سطح شهر تبریز از تصاویر لند ست 8 در ماههای جولای، سپتامبر و دسامبر سال 3412 استفادهشده است. به کمک نرمافزارهای ENVI ،ArcGIS به روش تک باندی، میانگین دمای سطح شهر تبریز برای کاربریهای مختلف موجود در سطح شهر محاسبه گردید. در منطقه شهری تبریز از طریق ترکیب دادههای حرارتی با دادههای انعکاسی دریافتیم ارتباط مستقیمی بین کاهش مقدار توده گیاهی و افزایش حرارت سطح وجود دارد. نتایج بهدستآمده نشان میدهد که تأثیر کاربری در توزیع زمانی و مکانی دمای سطح زمین در ماههای مختلف مقادیر متفاوت بوده است و نیز در کاربریهای مختلف نیز این مقادیر متفاوت بوده است. دمای سطح شهر تبریزها حد زیادی از توزیع توده گیاهی تبعیت میکند. همچنین هستههای پرحرارت به ترتیب منطبق بر مناطق دامداری، نظامی و... کاملاً قابلتشخیص است. سرانجام اینکه، روش استفاده از دادههای سنجشازدور، تصاویر لند ست 8 برای ارزیابی توزیع مکانی و زمانی دمای سطح زمین عینی و مؤثر بوده است.
