Abstract

We classified land use/land cover types and vegetation fraction and calculated land brightness temperature (LBT) from a Landsat Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) image acquired on July 9, 2002. The fractal analysis of LBT and vegetation abundance was also conducted on 20 transects. Results showed that unmixed vegetation fraction was more negatively correlated with UHI than NDVI for most land cover types, except for water. Fractal analysis of image texture showed that the fractal dimension correlation between LBT and vegetation abundance was higher than that between LBT and NDVI.
