Abstract

Rapid urbanization and population growth bring changes in land use and land cover, triggered mainly by deforestation and replacement of green areas by impermeable areas. Thus, understanding the impacts caused by urbanization is of strong interest to the academic community and urban managers, contributing to the understanding of climate dynamics on a local scale and to the understanding of preventive measures for the formation of urban heat islands. The present article aims to analyze the space-time variability between the years 2013, 2016, 2019 and 2022 of the land surface temperature (LST) and NDVI, as well as the local dynamics of land use and land cover change, based on images from the Landsat series covering the city of João Pessoa, Paraíba. In addition, air temperature ( ) and relative humidity (RH) from two INMET meteorological stations were used in order to analyze the Thom Discomfort Index (TDI). The results prove that deforestation and the loss of green areas with the growth of the urban area, contribute to thermal amplification and the consequent formation of urban heat islands. Such areas had a surface temperature close to 40°C and NDVI values between 0 and 1. The city of João Pessoa received a predominantly “little uncomfortable” classification throughout the historical series, reaching a maximum TDI of 24,99 in 2020. Such results certify the demand for mitigating and preventive strategies that guarantee the health.
