Evaluation of Land Use Change Trend and its Impact on Surface Albedo and Land Surface Temperature in Aharchai Watershed

One of the factors affecting human activities is land use change that can lead to changes in surface albedo and land surface temperature and changes in these parameters affect the natural climate of the area. The present study investigates land use change trends and land surface temperature and surface albedo per land use in the Aharchai watershed using Landsat data for a period of 29 years. for this purpose, Landsat 5 (TM) satellite images in 1987 and Landsat 8 (OLI) satellite images were used for 2015 and after various stages of image processing, land use extraction was performed based on th...
