Anomalous Variations of NDVI for a Non-Vegetated Urban Industrial Area of Gumi, Korea

Abstract: NDVI is often used to investigate how vegetation contributes to the surface urban heat islands (SUHI) effect.Generally, NDVIs obtained for partially vegetated or built-up areas have been found to be less than 0.4. However, anomalous NDVIs that are inconsistent with established concepts and relationships are frequently obtained for non-vegetated urban land cover. It is possible that these anomalous NDVIs have been distorted by the surface colors and patterns of rooftops. Therefore, we obtained NDVIs for an urba… Show more

“…The cloud cover response acts by reducing temperature as cloud cover increases, due to the increased albedo cooling effect, and it is statistically significant in GAM only for Tmax a rough estimate, we suppose a NDVI of 0.4 as a threshold in which below this value the vegetation cover is too low, with a predominance of built-up areas, and 0.65 as a threshold which above this value there is a high vegetation cover (Lambin and Ehrlich, 1996;Bhang, 2014), even though there are no exact values of NDVI that separate areas with low or high vegetation cover, especially when considering urban areas. In our sample data, we have 54 % of stations with NDVI < 0.4 and none of them with NDVI > 0.65.…”
