A research framework for constructing an urban heat island network to mitigate the urban heat island effect: A case study of Nanchang, China
The urban heat island (UHI) effect has become an increasingly severe issue, prompting numerous studies on its mitigation. However, most existing research has been conducted at the patch level, overlooking the overall connectivity of UHI patches, which makes it difficult to reveal the thermal landscape patterns of UHI areas. This study made the central urban area of Nanchang as the research area. First, we employed methods such as morphological spatial pattern analysis and connectivity analysis to identify UHI sources and assess their importance. Next, geographical detectors were applied to analyze the driving forces of land surface temperature (LST) from 6 factors: population density, land cover (LC), elevation, gross domestic product (GDP), night light intensity (NI), and normalized vegetation index (NDVI). Based on this, we constructed a heat diffusion resistance surface. Finally, we used circuit theory to identify thermal corridors and key nodes, constructing a UHI network. The results showed that LC, NDVI, NI, and GDP are the four strongest driving factors for LST. The spatial distribution of heat diffusion resistance exhibited a distinct pattern, with low resistance at the center and high resistance at the periphery. A total of 71 UHI sources, 190 thermal corridors, and 35 key nodes were identified, mainly distributed in the southern and central areas of the study region, showing significant spatial heterogeneity. Finally, based on the structural characteristics of the UHI network, recommendations for efficient mitigation of UHI effects were proposed. The results provide valuable theoretical insights and practical strategies for alleviating UHI effects and improving urban climate resilience.
