Abstract:In this study, MODIS land products and China land cover datasets were used to extract normalized difference vegetation index, land surface temperature, and vegetation cover type in Yan’an City during the summers of 2017–2022. On this basis, analysis of spatial change and correlation were carried out as a way to study the mitigation effect on urban heat islands in Yan’an City with forest. The study showed that: (1) The coverage of normalized difference vegetation index over 0.4 in summer in Yan’an City increase… Show more
