Resumen:
Land surface temperature (LST) is one of the most important variables in the physical
processes of surface energy and water balance. The temporal behavior of LST was analyzed between
the latitudes 32◦00′ S and 34◦24′ S (Valparaíso and Metropolitana regions of Chile) for three summer
months (December, January, and February) in the 2000–2017 period, using the Terra MODIS image
information and applying the Mann–Kendall test. The results show an increase in LST in the study
area, particularly in the Andes mountain range in January (5240 km2), which mainly comprises areas
devoid of vegetation and eternal snow and glaciers, and are zones that act as water reserves for
the capital city of Santiago. Similarly, vegetated areas such as forests, grasslands, and shrublands
also show increasing trends in LST but over smaller surfaces. Because this study is regional, it is
recommended to improve the spatial and temporal resolutions of the images to obtain conclusions on
more local scales.
