Purpose: Temperature in urban areas increase much more than suburban areas and it is called urban heat island (UHI) phenomenon. There are several solutions to control UHI phenomenon such as green roof system, water space construction, and cool roof system. However, application of green roof system and cool roof system to some of the buildings which compose the city has a critical limit. Therefore, in order to diminish the temperature rising and UHI phenomenon due to climate change of the city, it needs to approach from the viewpoint of site or city, rather than the viewpoint of individual buildings. This study is aims at analyzing UHI phenomenon by characteristics of surface materials and suggesting the solutions to reduce UHI phenomenon by types of complex. Method: Literature reviews were conducted to analyze the cause, mitigating plan, and recent trends of UHI phenomenon. For the simulation analysis, the type of complex was classified 3 representative complex. Based on measured reflectivity, simulation about UHI phenomenon was conducted by setting 4 strategies; albedo of roof, road pavement, green roof system, and vegetating around buildings. Result: As the results of simulating the UHI reduction factor by types of complex, it showed that the effect of temperature reduction on the building roof layer is more effective than adjusting the reflectivity of buildings such as green roof system, planting near the buildings in both the detached house complex, apartment complex, and commercial complex.

Urban Heat Island (UHI) intensity is one of vital parameters in studying urban boundary layer meteorology as well as urban planning. Because the UHI intensity is defined as air temperature difference between urban and rural sites, an objective sites selection criterion is necessary for proper quantification of the spatial variations of the UHI intensity. This study quantified the UHI intensity and its spatial pattern, and then analyzed their connections with urban structure and metabolism in Seoul metropolitan area where many kinds of land use and land cover types coexist. In this study, screen-level temperature data in non-precipitation day conditions observed from 29 automatic weather stations (AWS) in Seoul were analyzed to delineate the characteristics of UHI. For quality control of the data, gap test, limit test, and step test based on guideline of World Meteorological Organization were conducted. After classifying all stations by their own local climatological properties, UHI intensity and diurnal temperature range (DTR) are calculated, and then their seasonal patterns are discussed. Maximum UHI intensity was $4.3^{\circ}C$ in autumn and minimum was $3.6^{\circ}C$ in spring. Maximum DTR appeared in autumn as $3.8^{\circ}C$, but minimum was $2.3^{\circ}C$ in summer. UHI intensity and DTR showed large variations with different local climate zones. Despite limited information on accuracy and exposure errors of the automatic weather stations, the observed data from AWS network represented theoretical UHI intensities with difference local climate zone in Seoul.

Urban heat island (UHI) is one of the most important climatic implications of urbanization and thus a matter of key concern for environmentalists of the world in the twenty-first century. The relationship between climate and urbanization has been better understood with the introduction of thermal remote sensing. So, this study is an attempt to understand the influence of urbanization on local temperature for a small developing city. The study focuses on the investigation of intensity of atmospheric and surface urban heat island for a small urbanizing district of Punjab, India. Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS satellite data and field observations were used to examine the spatial pattern of surface and atmospheric UHI effect respectively, for the month of April, 2018. The satellite data has been used to cover the larger geographical area while field observations were taken for simultaneous and daily temperature measurements for different land use types. The significant influence of land use/land cover (LULC) patterns on UHI effect was analyzed using normalized built-up and vegetation indices (NDBI, NDVI) that were derived from remote sensing satellite data. The statistical analysis carried out for land surface temperature (LST) and LULC indicators displayed negative correlation for LST and NDVI while NDBI and LST exhibited positive correlation depicting attenuation in UHI effect by abundant vegetation. The comparison of remote sensing and in-situ observations were also carried out in the study. The research concluded in finding both nocturnal and daytime UHI effect based on diurnal air temperature observations. The study recommends the urgent need to explore and impose effective UHI mitigation measures for the sustainable urban growth.

The spatial and temporal changes of the annual mean urban heat island(UHI) intensity were investigated using near surface temperature data measured at 16 automatic weather systems(AWS) in Busan metropolitan area(BMA) during the 11-yr period, from 2000 to 2010. For nighttime, the annual mean UHI intensity at Dongnae(U1) in 2000 was weaker than it in 2010. However the change of the annual mean UHI intensity at Daeyeon(U2) during 11 years was different from it at U1. The annual frequency of the UHI intensity over $5^{\circ}C$ considerably increased at U2 and decreased at U1 during 11 years. The center of the UHI also spatially shifted southward with Daeyeon and Haeundae in BMA. It would be caused by the increase of urban area, population-density and transportation near U2 and by the decrease of them near U1. We found that the spatial and temporal differences of the UHI intensity have coincided with changes of land-use, population density and transportation in BMA.

본 연구는 기상청 현업모델(LDAPS)로부터 예측된 서울의 도시열섬 강도와 지상 기온을 AWS 관측과 비교 평가하였다. 관측된 서울의 열섬 강도는 봄과 겨울동안 증가하며 여름동안 감소한다. 열섬 강도의 시간적 변동 경향은 새벽 시간 최대, 오후에 최소를 보인다. 기상청 국지기상예측시스템(LDAPS)으로부터 예측된 열섬 강도는 여름철 과대모의, 겨울철 과소모의 특징을 보인다. 특히 여름철은 주간에 과대 모의 경향이 증가하며, 겨울은 새벽 시간 과소 모의 오차가 크게 나타난다. LDAPS에서 예측된 지면 기온의 오차는 여름철 감소하며 겨울철 증가한다. 겨울철 열섬 강도의 과소 모의는 도시 기온의 과소 모의와 관련되었으며, 여름철 열섬 강도의 과대 모의는 교외 지역 기온의 과소 모의로부터 기인하는것으로 판단된다. 도시 열섬강도 예측성 개선을 위하여 도시효과를 고려하는 도시캐노피모델을 LDAPS와 결합하여 2017년 여름 기간동안 모의하였다. 도시캐노피모델 적용 후 도시의 지면 기온의 오차는 개선되었다. 특히 오전시간 과소모의되는 기온의 오차 개선 효과가 뚜렷하였다. 도시캐노피모델은 여름동안 과대 모의하는 도시열섬강도를 약화시키는 개선 효과를 보였다.

The cooling effects of botanical garden in urban are was investigated at Sungkyunwan University Natural Science Campus and nearby urban area during summer (20/06/2008-30/08/2008). Temperature and humidity data were observed, downloaded and analyzed. After observation single-family residential area (TNH) showed the highest air temperature while botanical garden (ARB) did the lowest one. UHI intensity between TNH and ARB was derived and investigated. The average UHI intensity was $1.5^{\circ}C$ while maximum UHI intensity was recorded at 21 : 20 by $2.29^{\circ}C$, and minimum UHI intensity at 09 : 20 by $0.45^{\circ}C$. Overall the average air temperature of botanical garden was lower to surrounding urban area by $0.5-1.5^{\circ}C$. So it was found out the botanical garden contributes to the cooling effect of the surrounding area as an urban cooling island.

This study focuses on monitoring the surface UHI in a tropical city of Bangkok in both spatial and temporal dimensions based on MODIS- and TM -derived land surface temperature (LST). The spatial extension and magnitude of the surface UHI are explored for days and nights as well as its variations through the dry (least-clouded) season. Surface UHI growth between 1993 and 2002 is mapped using highresolution LANDSAT TM thermal bands. UHI patterns are, then, analyzed in association with land/vegetation covers derived from high-resolution ETM+ and ASTER satellites and ancillary data.

The urban thermal environment can be an important index to detect heat island phenomena and manage it to improve urban life quality. Cheongju is a typical plain-city that main part has been formed and developed in lowland. The Mushim stream crosses the city from south to north. We reviewed the use of thermal remote sensing in stream around areas and the thermal environments, focusing primarily on the Urban Heat Island(UHI) effect. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between the stream nearby urban area and the stream cooling effect of UHI. The objectives are to determine the usefulness of KOMPSAT-2 bands MS3 and MS4 for vegetation cover mapping, and the usefulness of LANDSAT TM band 6 in identifying thermal environmental characteristics and UHI. Land Surface Temperatures (LST) are retrieved by single-channel algorithm to study the UHI from the 6th band (thermal infrared band) of LANDSAT TM images and thermal radiance thermometer based on remote sensing method and the LST distribution maps are accomplished according to the retrieval results. There is also comparison of satellite-derived and in situ measured temperature. The results indicated that the LST of urban center is higher than that of suburban area, the temperature of mountain and water are the lowest area, so it is clearly proved that there are obvious UHI effects by stream. The surface temperature distribution of Mushim stream is detected $2^{\circ}C$ lower than urban area.

본 연구는 MODIS 위성영상을 활용하여 우리나라 전역의 열섬강도를 분석하기 위하여 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 도시지역을 토지피복별 분류에 따라 시가화지역, 비시가화지역으로 공간적 구분하였다. MODIS 위성영상을 활용하여 산출된 2009년 여름철 전국의 표면온도 분석 결과 전국 최고온도는 $36.0^{\circ}C$, 최저온도 $16.2^{\circ}C$, 평균 $24.3^{\circ}C$, 표준편차 $2.4^{\circ}C$로 분석되었다. 시군별 열섬현상을 분석하기 위하여 시가화지역과 비시가화지역의 평균온도의 차이를 열섬강도로 정의하였고 RST1, RST2 2가지 방법으로 산출하였다. 그 결과 RST1의 경우 열섬강도가 높은 지역이 산포되어 분포하고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, RST2의 경우 대도시지역을 주변으로 열섬강도가 높은 지역이 집중되어 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 시군별 열섬현상 분석에 효율적 방법을 보기 위하여 시가화율, 열대야일수, 폭염일수와의 상관분석을 하였다. 그 결과 RST1 방식에 의한 열섬강도는 상관성이 거의 없는 것으로 나타났으며, RST2의 경우 유의한 상관성을 나타났다. 전국 시군별 도시 지역을 대상으로 열섬현상에 대해 분석하기 위한 방법으로는 RST2 방식이 더 적합할 것으로 판단되며, 시군별 시가화율이 약 20% 이하일 경우 시가화율 증가에 따른 도시지역의 열섬강도의 증가율이 매우 높았으며, 약 20% 이상부터 열섬강도의 증가율이 점차 낮아지는 것을 확인할 수 있다. RST2 열섬강도가 $1^{\circ}C$ 증가할 경우 열대야일수와 폭염일수는 약 5일과 0.5일 증가하는 것으로 예측하였다. 이러한 분석결과는 추후 도시화율 증가에 따른 열섬강도 변화를 예측 할 수 있는 자료로서 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
