LST Calculation through Radiative Transfer Method

Step 1 - Convert DN to Radiance (Lλ)


Lλ = ML*QCAL+AL (1)
 
0.0003342* "Band10_Avg_Clip.tif"+0.1
 
Step 2 - Radiance to Brightness Temperature (BT) -

= 1321.0789/(Ln(1+774.8853)/ Lλ)
 
 
Step 3 - NDVI calculation (NDVI) -
NDVI = (Band 5 – Band 4) / (Band 5 + Band 4)
 
Step 4 - Calculation of Proportion of Vegetation (PV) -

Step 5 - Calculation of Land Surface Emisivity -


 

LSE = Es* (1 - Pv) + Ev*Pv + Cλ


 
Es = soil emissivity = 0.9668
Ev = vegetation emissivity = 0.9863
C= surface roughness = 0.005
Pv = proportion of vegetation
 
0.9668 ∗ (1 − 𝑃𝑉) + 0.9863 ∗ 𝑃𝑉
  
 
Step 6 - LST Calculation -
 
 

 
C1 = 4387.7 μm °K
C2 = 1.19104*10^8 W μm4 m-2 sr-1
E = LSE
Wavelength (𝜆)
Atmospheric Transmittance (τ)
Upwelling path radiance (𝐿𝗍)
Downwelling path radiance (𝐿↓)
 
For 2017 -
Surface Pressure = 988.2 nb/1242
Relative Humidity = 35%
Dew point = 10.211 C
 
C1 = 4387.7 umK
C2 = 1.19104 x 10^8 W um^4 m^-2 sr^-1
𝜆 = 10.8
L10 = TOA Spectral Radiance = Band
I^ = upwelling = 1.01 W/m^2/sr/um
I down = downwelling = 1.74 W/m^2/sr/um
E = LSE = Band
Tau = atmospheric transmittance = 0.87
 
4387.7/(10.8* Ln( (119104000/ (146932.807* (("1. Radiance.tif"-1.01-0.87*(1-"5. LSE.tif")
*1.74) / (0.87*"5. LSE.tif") ) ) ) +1 ) )
 
4387.7/(10.8*Ln((119104000/(146932.807*((("1. Radiance.tif"-1.01-0.87)*(1-"5. LSE.tif")
*1.74)/(0.87*"5. LSE.tif")))) +1) )
