Abstract
Land surface temperature (LST) is a critical parameter in understanding the urban heat island effect, which is a major concern in urban planning and management. Several studies have investigated the urban heat island effect in various cities around the world. However, there is a lack of studies on the urban heat island effect in Jimeta, Nigeria. This study aims to fill this knowledge gap by analyzing the spatial and temporal patterns of land surface temperature in Jimeta wards over a 21-year period. The data collection methods employed in this study involves Satellite Imageries and preprocessing, trend analysis was used to identifying the pattern and trend in Land Surface Temperature over time. Findings suggest that there are no significant outliers: Jarque-Bera test probabilities > 0.05 for all wards, suggesting no significant deviations from normality.
