Abstract:Taking the campus of South China Agricultural University as the research object, thermal imaging images of different underlying surfaces in the central area of the campus are obtained through drones carrying thermal imaging sensors. The daily surface temperature changes of different underlying surfaces are analyzed, and the influencing factors of their surface cooling effect are explored. The results indicate that the underlying surface with the overall cooling amplitude from large to small in a day is water body, forest land, tree shrub grass green space/tree grass green space, road, building. Among them, the surface cooling benefits of water body and green space, especially forest land, are significant. When the perimeter of a forest land is between 0~600 m and the area is between 0~7 000 m2, they are positively correlated with the surface cooling amplitude of the forest land. The perimeter area ratio, landscape shape index and fractal dimension of forest land are negatively correlated with the magnitude of surface cooling. The simpler the shape and edge of forest land, the closer the shape is to a circular shape, and the better the surface cooling efficiency.
