An Analysis on the Impact of Normalized Difference Vegetation Index \NDVI\ Changes on the Land Surface Temperature \LST\ Using Satellite Imagery in the West Bank, Palestine
2024
Overview
This study investigated the impact of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) on the Land Surface Temperature (LST) in the West Bank, Palestine, using multitemporal satellite imagery. Landsat 5 TM and Landsat 8 OLI data were used in the study. The Landsat 5 TM data was acquired on March 29, 2001, while the Landsat 8 OLI data was acquired on April 05, 2021. The NDVI and the LST for the two images were then calculated from the two images using ArcGIS 10.8 software. Results of the study showed that the NDVI of the 2021 image was much higher than that of the 2001 image. The mean NDVI of the 2001 image was 0.25, while that of the 2021 image was 0.32. As for the LST, the mean LST of the 2001 image was 29.85 °C, while that of the 2021 image was 26.98 ˚C. Around 74.7 % of the West Bank lands recorded an inverse relationship between the NDVI change and the LST change between 2001 and 2021. Around 25.3 % of the West Bank lands recorded a positive relationship. In other words, the study depicted the impact of the NDVI on the LST in the West Bank. The study recommends that policymakers need to increase the green areas in the West Bank to reduce the LST as this is seen to affect the climate conditions in the area.
