Abstract

Rapid urbanization of Korea was an unprecedented example in the world and urban population increased significantly. As a result, unbalanced distribution of population is serious problem in Korea because approximately 50% of the population is concentrated in the capital area that is 10% of nation's territory, thereby occurring various urban problems including UHI. Hence, Sejong Special Autonomous City was inaugurated officially on 2 July 2012 in order to decentralize population of capital area and induce more balanced regional development. The Sejong City has been changed drastically over a period of years as developed practically since the late 2000's and is expected to have new problems of urbanization. The land cover change due to urbanization is the main cause of UHI that urban area is significantly warmer than its surrounding areas and UHI is not only affecting urban climate change but also natural environment. So the purpose of this research is to analyze level of urbanization and UHI effect and to provide the correlation analysis between Land Surface Temperature and spectral indices. To achieve this, satellite imagery from LANDSAT were used. NDVI, NDBI, and UI were calculated using red, near-infrared, mid-infrared ($0.63{\mu}m-1.75{\mu}m$) images and LST was retrieved utilizing thermal infrared ($10.4{\mu}m-12.5{\mu}m$) image. Based on each index and LST, Changes of NDVI, UI and UHI through TVI were analyzed in Sejong City. UHI effect increased around newly constructed multi-functional administrative city, the correlation between LST and NDVI was negative and UI was strong positive.

우리나라는 세계적으로 유례없이 도시화가 급속하게 이루어졌으며 그 결과, 국토 면적의 10%인 수도권에 인구의 50%가 밀집하여 국토 개발의 불균형 및 열섬현상을 비롯한 각종 도시 문제가 수도권을 중심으로 발생하고 있다. 이에 수도권의 과잉 밀집을 해소하고 국토의 균형개발을 위해 2012년 7월 세종특별자치시가 출범하였으며, 세종시는 2000년대 후반부터 실질적인 개발이 진행되어 급격한 도시화를 겪고 있는 곳으로 급격한 개발에 따른 도시 문제를 수반할 것으로 예상된다. 도시화로 인한 지표면 특성의 변화는 도시열섬의 주요인이며 도시열섬현상은 결과적으로 도시지역의 기후변화 및 자연환경에 영향을 끼칠 수 있다. 본 논문은 급속한 도시화를 겪고 있는 세종시를 대상으로 도시화의 정도와 도시열섬효과를 파악하였고 도시화와 지표면온도와의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 이를 위하여 LANDSAT 영상을 사용하였으며, 2001년부터 2013년까지의 LANDSAT의 $0.63{\mu}m-1.75{\mu}m$에 해당하는 적색, 근적외선, 중적외선 영역 영상으로 NDVI, NDBI, UI를 산출하였고, $10.4{\mu}m-12.5{\mu}m$에 해당하는 열적외선 영역대의 영상을 통하여 세종시의 지표온도를 추정하였다. 산출된 각 지수와 지표면 온도를 바탕으로 세종시의 NDVI의 변화, UI의 변화를 파악하였고, TVI를 통해 도시열섬을 분석하였다. TVI를 통해 새로 건설된 행정중심복합도시 지역 일대를 중심으로 도시열섬현상이 두드러지게 증가한 것을 확인할 수 있었고 각 지수와 지표온도와의 상관관계 분석 결과 NDVI가 높을수록 온도는 낮아지는 음의 상관 관계를, NDBI와 UI는 증가할수록 온도가 높아지는 양의 상관관계를 갖는 것으로 나타났으며 이 중에서도 UI는 지표면 온도와 가장 강한 양의 상관관계를 보였다.
