RIASSUNTO

Changes in land use and land cover (LULC) are the critical driving forces of change in atmospheric, climatic and ecological systems. The purposes of this study are thus aiming to understand the relationship between land cover changes and thermal properties of urban heat island effects using Landsat images spanning from 1991 to 2007. On basis of the images of 17 years, the temperature differences between urban and rural of Hsinchu had been raised from 2–3 degrees to 4–5 degrees. Moreover, local hot spots showed up in downtown, Nan-Liao fishing port, and the traffic arteries surrounding residential area. It shows that urban expansion and heat discharged by traffic vehicles are major reasons for the temperature anomaly in the study area. Further study is required for understanding the sources of these features.
