<p>The study focused on investigating the seasonal and spatiotemporal relationship between the relationships of LST with four spectral indices (MNDWI, NDBaI, NDBI, and NDVI) in and around Manipur City of India using eight cloud-free Landsat data from the summer and winter seasons for 1991, 2001, 2011, and 2021. These spectral indices respond differently to the change of LST in an urban landscape. Pearson’s linear correlation coefficient was the basis of the correlation analysis. The study finds that LST builds a moderate negative relationship with NDVI (R = -0.42) and MNDWI (R = -0.42), a moderate positive relationship with NDBaI (R=0.48), and NDBI (R = 0.61). The relationship is more stable in the winter season (CV = 7.31, 7.04, 10.45, and 28.71 for MNDWI, NDBaI, NDBI, and NDVI, respectively) than in summer (CV = 44.46, 36.09, 23.67, and 29.71 for MNDWI, NDBaI, NDBI, and NDVI, respectively). The strength of the relationship is gradually increasing in the winter season while there is no such effect noticed on the trend in the summer season. The LST-NDBI relationship is the most consistent (CV = 18.19), while the LST-NDVI relationship is the most variable (CV = 30.37).</p>
