ABSTRACT

Drastic changes at a global level in land use and land cover are having a negative impact on the environment, both directly and indirectly. One of the most important factors contributing to global warming is rapid urbanization, which is affected by surface temperature and water resources. One of the primary contributors to climate change and global warming is temperature. Rapid urbanization, which results in polluted water and causes other human activities in nearly every section of the country, has a significant impact on surface waterbodies. Land surface temperature can be determined using the Landsat series' thermal band. Temperatures have risen from 2005 to 2020, according to image analysis. Land surface temperature is directly affected by changes in land use and land cover. According to the report, urban areas and built-up regions should be developed in tandem with additional plantings and vegetation; this will result in keeping the temperature under control. The purpose of this research is to identify how land surface temperature changes over time, how it influences land use and land cover changes, and how it affects surface waterbodies, as turbid waterbodies have higher temperatures than clear waterbodies. The time-series change in water spread area over key waterbodies from 2005 to 2020 is also discussed in this study. Long-term rainfall analysis (1984-2014) has also been carried out to determine how drought affected the study area during the year 2015.
