The influence of wind speed on infrared temperature in impervious surface areas based on in situ measurement data

Wind perturbations can cause a relatively rapid decay in infrared temperature, thus resulting in abnormal spatial patterns of infrared temperature in urban areas and the subsequent reduction in the reliability of infrared temperature measurements. To increase the reliability of such measurements, th...

description Wind perturbations can cause a relatively rapid decay in infrared temperature, thus resulting in abnormal spatial patterns of infrared temperature in urban areas and the subsequent reduction in the reliability of infrared temperature measurements. To increase the reliability of such measurements, the effects of wind speed must be evaluated and removed. However, studies on the quantitative estimation of wind speed effects on infrared temperature are limited. In this study, in situ infrared temperature measurements and synchronous meteorological data were used to evaluate the influence of wind speed on in situ infrared temperature measurements of impervious surfaces. Five different impervious surfaces were selected in this study. The technical schemes are proposed for quantitative estimation of wind speed effects: (1) the residual-based method from the diurnal temperature cycle model was proposed to estimate the infrared temperature decay (ITD) due to wind fluctuations; (2) quantile regression method was introduced to define the relationship between wind speed fluctuations and the ITD; and (3) An improved probabilistic prediction interval as well as a ratio method were developed to estimate the magnitude and duration of the ITD. The results indicated that relative extreme wind speed (EWS) was significantly correlated with the range of ITD over 5-min intervals; the hourly decay rate and impact duration of ITD varied with changes in relative wind speed and impervious surface type; and the impact duration of ITD increased with an increase in the relative EWS and lasted more than 1.3 h for the studied impervious surfaces. The above findlings provide us a guidance for in situ measurement of infrared temperature and could be utilized for correcting thermal infrared images.
