3.3. Relationship between temperature and indices, NDWI,
NDVI, NDBI and NDBaI
Fig. 10shows the maps of the NDWI, NDVI, NDBI indices
in comparison with the land use/cover map retrieved from
Landsat ETM+ image on Nov. 1, 2000, from which we can see
the corresponding relationships between indices and land use/
cover types. Previous analyses have clearly indicated the
relationship between land use/cover types and the temperature
spatial variation pattern in the study region. Previous studies
