Abstract

Due to climate change and urbanization, it is important to monitor and evaluate the components of the environment. For this reason, ward-22 and ward-27 of the Khulna City Corporation (KCC) area have been selected for the study. This research seeks to identify the existing land use profile and assess the land surface components such as topography, Normalized Difference Buildup Index (NDBI), Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Normalized Difference Moisture Index (NDMI), Normalized Difference Salinity Index (NDSI) and Land Surface Temperature (LST) to measure the relationships among the land surface components. The land use land cover map shows that about 59% of ward-22 and 71.5% area of ward-27 are built-up areas. Both of the wards contain little amount of water body, vegetation and open space. Both of the wards have residential land use types with commercial purposes on the periphery. Accordingly, 63.32% and 65% of structures of ward-22 and 27 are pucca. The land surface components reveal that both areas contain lower slopes, less vegetation, less moisture, severe salinity, highly built-up areas, and high land surface temperature. The relationships among the land surface components show that NDVI has a negative relation with LST and NDBI whereas NDVI represents a positive correlation with NDMI. On the other hand, NDBI shows a positive correlation with LST whereas NDMI negatively correlates with LST. NDSI and topography reflect no meaningful relationship between NDBI, NDVI, LST, and NDMI. However, the research findings may be essential to city planners and decision-makers for incorporating better urban management at the micro level concerning climate change.
