In this paper, the diurnal variation of ground surface thermal scene is mainly discussed. Firstly, based on the land surface energy balance equation, the diurnal variation of land surface temperatures （LSTs） over bare land covers were simulated by an analyt- ical thermal model with second harmonic terms, and the diurnal LST variation of vegetation canopy was simulated using the Cupid model. Secondly, normalized difference vegetation index （NDVI）, normalized difference water index （NDWI）, and ratio resident-area index （RRI） were used to evaluate the endmember abundance of four land cover types including vegetation, bare soil, impervious and water area, which were calculated from IKONOS visible and near infrared （VNIR） bands. Finally, the thermal radiance scenes at various times and view angles were modeled based on the linear-energy-mixing hypothesis. The re- suits showed that the simulated daily LST variations for vegetated and bare surfaces are correlated with the measured values with a maximum standard deviation of 2.7℃, that land thermal radiant textures with high-resolution are restored from the lin- ear-energy-mixing method, and that the information abundance of the scene are related to the distribution of land cover, the imaging time, and the view angle.展开更多
