From: Relationship among land surface temperature and LUCC, NDVI in typical karst area
The main author | Data | Study area | Results |
|---|---|---|---|
Cao et al.42 | Landsat ETM+ data on July 3, 2001 | Shanghai, China | There was a nonlinear relationship between LST and NDVI in Shanghai, but the positive value of LST and NDVI showed a significant linear relationship |
Hager et al.43 | AVHRR data from 1981 to 1999 | Mongolia | In high latitudes, LST and NDVI were positively related |
Ghobadi et al.9 (2013) | Landsat 5 data in 1998 and Landsat 7 data in 2002 | the South Carle Sea watershed of Iran | There was a negative correlation between LST and NDVI |
Zhou et al.10 | Landsat TM data on August 27, 2010 | Shenyang, China | LST and NDVI scatter plots showed “triangle” relation, the three directions represent water area, green land and cultivated land, construction land, respectively |
Qu et al.11 | MODIS data in 2011 | Shiyang River Basin in Gansu, China | LST-NDVI scatter plots showed a trapezoid distribution |
Liang et al.44 | Landsat TM data in 2006 | Guilin, China | NDVI and LST showed a negative correlation |
This paper | Landsat 8 data on August 29, 2016 | Yinjiang County of Guizhou, China | LST and NDVI scatter plots showed an “obtuse-angled triangle” distribution |
