Abstract
The correct use of the product is possible only when the land surface temperature (LST) data is calculated by an accurate and reliable inversion algorithm. In this paper, we compare the inversion results of five commonly used LST inversion algorithms based on Landsat-8, Landsat-9 data, and weather station data. The inversion results and parameter sensitivity analysis of different algorithms are tested. The results show that the inversion results of the Radiative Transfer Equation (RTE) and Single Channel (SC) algorithms calculated based on land surface emissivity (LSE) are in good agreement with the ground measured. The inversion results of the SC algorithm based on the atmospheric water vapor inversion and the Split Window (SW) algorithm based on the atmospheric water vapor inversion are higher than the measured temperature. The inversion accuracy of the Mono Window (MW) algorithm based on average temperature parameters is not ideal. In addition, the consistency of the inversion temperature of the two data on different ground objects is compared. Our study can provide a reference for land surface temperature inversion based on Landsat-9 data.
Land surface temperature (LST) is an important variable in climate and environmental research, which has been widely used in global climate chang
Many researchers have developed algorithms based on surface temperature inversion. Major LST inversion algorithms include RT

In the inversion of surface temperature in this study, LSE, atmospheric transmittance, upward radiation, downward radiation, atmospheric water vapor content, atmospheric average temperature, and other parameters required by various inversion algorithms are obtained by USGS using interpolation measurements from various stations around the world. A description of the parameter dataset can be found in the USGS official documentation.
In the data pre-processing stage, the atmospheric correction was mainly carried out on the selected Landsat-8 and Landsat-9 level-1 product data. Then, we combined five commonly used LST inversion algorithms using land surface emissivity, upward radiation, downward radiation, atmospheric water vapor, and average temperature. LST inversion was performed for the corrected atmospheric data. Secondly, we fitted the five temperature inversion results with the in-situ measurement results of weather stations to compare the accuracy of the five algorithms. The sensitivity of each dependent parameter of the inversion algorithm was tested by controlling the parameters with an equal step size. Finally, we classified the study area, and several pixels were randomly selected for data statistics in each category in the study area and we measured the stability of each inversion algorithm on Landsat-8 and Landsat-9 data according to the mean and standard deviation. The overall process is shown in

The stability of five inversion algorithms was discussed, and the inversion results on different land use types were selected for statistical analysis. The random forest method was used to classify land use in the study area. Since the accuracy of classification directly affected the test results, the overall classification accuracy was required to be higher than 90%. Considering the spatial resolution of Landsat data and the separability and high precision requirements of land cover, as well as the subsequent research on the thermal environment using surface temperature, we divided land use in the study area into seven categories: water, vegetation, dark buildings, bright soil, dark soil, and high reflectivity buildings. Spectral statistics and analysis were performed for each category, and the specific classification sample selection and classification process, please refer to our previous literatur
Five temperature retrieval algorithms were used to retrieve LST from the Landsat-8 and Landsat-9 data, the results are shown in

From the accuracy of the algorithm inversion results and the sensitivity analysis of the parameters in the algorithm, the RTE and SC algorithms calculated using the LSE parameters are better than other algorithms. The MW algorithm yields slightly higher retrieval results than the measured data, and the SW algorithm yields a large difference from the measured data. This may be related to the unstable radiometric calibration in Band 11 of the Landsat-8 TIRS. In addition, the calibration parameters of the 11th band of Landsat-9 are still being tested. It is hoped that USGS will provide more accurate calibration parameters in the future, and calculate atmospheric influence through two thermal infrared bands to obtain a more accurate surface temperature.
The inversion temperature of each algorithm was normalized, and the sensitivity of the parameters in the algorithm was analyzed by controlling variables, and the analysis results of each parameter are shown in

The random forest algorithm was used to classify the land cover in the study area, and then five inversion LSTs were superimposed. The maximum value, minimum value, mean value, and standard deviation of different temperature inversion methods in different types of two images were calculated to indicate the stability of temperature inversion with different temperature inversion methods in different ground covers. We selected 100 pure pixel points in each category and carried out the ground object verification with the data taken by an unmanned aerial vehicle on the imaging day.

As can be seen from Table 3-7 and
All LST inversion algorithms for Landsat data have certain errors. Such errors can only be minimized, not eliminated. Since the required parameters in the LST inversion algorithm are not exact values, and some parameters need to be estimated initialized, it is very necessary to explore the disturbance of each parameter on the results. All the algorithms that worked for Landsat-8 also worked for Landsat-9 data. However, unlike Landsat-8 data, the radiometric calibration file of Band 11 of Landsat-9 has not been updated yet. We expect USGS to provide more accurate calibration parameters so that we can use the data of the two channels to constrain each other to obtain higher precision temperature inversion results.
Considering the accuracy and parameter sensitivity of the inversion algorithm, the RTE and SC algorithms using LSE parameters have high accuracy and good algorithm stability. The inversion results of the SC algorithm and SW algorithm based on the calculation of atmospheric water vapor content parameters fit poorly with the measured data. The MW algorithm based on LSE and average atmospheric temperature parameters fit poorly with the measured results. Therefore, we believe that the results obtained by the LSE parameter inversion algorithm are better than those obtained by the atmospheric water vapor content parameter inversion algorithm. By comparing LST1 and LST5, it can be seen that the LST5 algorithm has one more atmospheric average temperature estimation parameter than the LST1 algorithm, leading to a poor fitting effect on inversion results, which may be due to the negative impact of excessive uncertain parameters on results. We strongly recommend LST1 and LST3 algorithms for the LST inversion from Landsat data. Even though it is not possible to find atmospheric profiles (radiosonde data, etc.) in place at any time and in any place, this use (using ACPC to simulate atmospheric profile information) can affect the accuracy of the method, but from our results and the literatur
In the comparative analysis of all LST inversion model results, error tracing is very necessary. Through error tracing, we can reverse calculate which parameters the error mainly comes from and which parameters have high sensitivity in model calculation. In the subsequent calculation process, various considerations can be taken to reduce the error accumulation. According to the inversion results of different temperature inversion algorithms on different data and different land cover types, we can see that the inversion percentage error of the same inversion algorithm and the same land cover type on Landsat-9 is smaller than that on Landsat-8, indicating that the data quality of Landsat-9 has been improved.
The algorithm for Landsat-8 can also be applied to Landsat-9 data. The calculation process of the SC (LST3) algorithm is a little simpler than that of RTE (LST1), but there is little difference in accuracy between the two algorithms. The RTE algorithm and SC algorithm based on LSE parameters are superior to other algorithms in terms of both accuracy of results and sensitivity to parameters. The retrieval results of the SC (LST2) algorithm and SW (LST4) algorithm based on the atmospheric water vapor retrieval are higher than the measured temperature. The inversion effect of the MW (LST5) algorithm based on average temperature parameters is not particularly ideal. This phenomenon shows that among all the current surface temperature inversion algorithms, the accuracy of surface temperature inversion based on the single window algorithm is the highest, which is also the algorithm used in the advanced products released by USGS. However, the starting point of the split window algorithm is to eliminate the error caused by atmospheric influence with the help of two thermal infrared channels, so as to obtain higher inversion accuracy. But the actual result is the opposite. This may be due to unstable radiometric calibration of Landsat-8 TIRS Band 11. Calibration parameters for Band 11 of Landsat-9 are still being tested. It is hoped that USGS will provide more accurate calibration parameters in the future and calculate atmospheric effects through two thermal infrared bands to obtain more accurate surface temperatures.
With the same inversion algorithm and the same ground cover type, the inversion percentage error on Landsat-9 is smaller than that on Landsat-8, indicating that the data quality of Landsat-9 has been improved. From the inversion results of different inversion algorithms on the same data, the results of water and vegetation have good stability.
