Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Regarding the 2018 heat-wave that occurred around Japan and Korea, the land surface temperature (LST) were retrieved frequently (10 min) using Himawari-8 data, and the areas which had high anomaly of LST were extracted and analyzed. Regarding the vegetation area, it was found that the diurnal waveform of the LST retrieved from Himawari-8 changed due to vegetation stress. Regarding urban areas, it was found that areas where the temperature rises significantly during 2018 heat-wave were affected not only by land-use with low thermal inertia, but also by altitude and distance from the ocean, that is, meteorological factors.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
植生域の解析で得られた結果:ひまわり8号を用いた地表面温度の高頻度観測が、植生ストレスの検出に応用できる可能性を初めて示したものであり、森林・農地における「植生の健康診断」への貢献が期待できる。 都市域の解析で得られた結果:猛暑で都市の熱環境がどれだけ悪化するかを、気温ではなく人間の体感温度に近い物理量である地表面温度で初めて調べた研究である。本成果は、今後地球温暖化によって発生頻度が増加する猛暑の影響が加わった際の都市の暑熱環境に関する重要な基礎資料となることが期待される。
