dc.description.abstractThe Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect is a phenomenon where urban areas experience higher temperatures than surrounding rural areas. In these issues, enhanced air or surface temperature is one of the major issues that led to the UHI phenomenon. In this article, we come up with a study on the diurnal UHI effect caused in Jaipur city, India, and surrounding areas of Jaipur. In-situ temperature monitoring has been carried out at seven dispersed locations to properly understand and evaluate the effects of surface UHI (SUHI) and atmospheric UHI (AUHI), as well as to assess the thermal profile of diverse land surfaces in Jaipur. With the use of satellite data, the intensity of AUHI and SUHI has been determined between 10.30 a.m. and 10.30 p.m. The observations point out that positive AUHI intensity (AUHII) exists at many locations, irrespective of time periods. During the day period, negative SUHI intensity (SUHII) was noticed at many locations, whereas during the night period, positive SUHII was noticed. According to our observations, AUHI and SUHI have a direct correlation at night but a negative or inverse correlation during the day. That is, AUHI was active both during the day and at night. Various land surfaces play a significant role in contrasting the diurnal UHI effect. This study evaluates the potential of remotely sensed data in monitoring the UHI effect and provides recommendations for urban planners and policymakers to mitigate the UHI effect in the city of Jaipur.
