Abstract
Urban expansion results in the intrusion of artificial surfaces into natural environments, giving rise to phenomena such as urban heat islands and heightened temperatures within inhabited areas. This study examined the dynamic evolution of urban morphology and land surface temperature through the lens of local climate zone. Furthermore, the spatial relationship between urban morphology indices and land surface temperature was analyzed within the context of loops. The investigation yielded several noteworthy findings: (1) LCZ8, LCZ6, and LCZD were the most significant transfer-in and transfer-out classes within the study area. (2) The heat contribution of residential LCZs (LCZ 2,3,5) decreased over time, ranging from 0.415 to 0.171, while that of industrial LCZs (LCZ 8,10) increased within the range of 0.348–0.553. (3) Urban heat island mitigation can be achieved by regulating building height and surface fraction. Establishing a judicious threshold for reducing LST is imperative for sky view factor and impervious surface fraction factors. Surface albedo exhibited a substantial inhibitory effect in 2020. The observation of urban morphological changes and long-term local climate zone considerations integrate the responsibility of mitigating urban heat islands into urban planning.
