Abstract

This paper was based on the 2005 general weather information of 11 Shanghai meteorological stations four times per day, and the 2005 MODIS LST data of Shanghai region at the nearly same time, analyzed the difference on UHI around the meteorological stations, under an ideal meteorological condition. The analysis shows the air temperature and LST was spatially identical to those that were observed in the core zone of Shanghai, with only a small difference in scope and range, but the lowest temperatures exhibited regional variations.
