Temporal-Spatial Analysis of the Warming Effect of Different Cultivated Land Urbanization of Metropolitan Area in China

摘要

The regional warming effect is different when different cultivated land types are converted into urban construction land, while its temporal and spatial changes are unclear. We studied the temporal and spatial changes in the warming effect when dry land was converted to urban land (DL2UBL), and irrigated land to urban land (IL2UBL) in Yangtze River Delta (CSJ), Beijing-Tianjin- Hebei (JJJ) and Chengdu-Chongqing (CY) metropolitan areas from 2000 to 2015. The average warming effect of the three metropolitan areas was more intensive in DL2UBL than in IL2UBL in winter, and opposite occurred in summer. The diurnal warming changes between them were small during the day, but obvious at night, which corresponds to the diurnal change of the latent heat of evaporation. Due to the difference in the spatial distribution of humidity, to the north of 34°N, the warming effect of DL2UBL was stronger than that of IL2UBL, and to the south of 34°N, it was stronger for IL2UBL, while from west to east, the warming trend of DL2UBL and IL2UBL keep pace and decline slightly. The influence in planetary boundary layer was also analyzed. We hope that our findings provide scientific support for future metropolitan land use decisions associated with tradeoffs.
