Analysis of Sea Surface Temperature Distribution Around Uljin Nuclear Power Station Using Time Series Landsat Satellite Images

In this study, We analyzed change of sea surface temperature due to cooling water around nuclear power station. Study area is around of Uljin nuclear power station, which is relatively large power station. There are many problems in monitering environmental change around of nuclear power station, because area is relatively large. We used Landsat 5, 7 Imagery which are useful in temperature analysis and can be easily obtained. After we georeferenced Landsat Imagery, radiance and sea surface temperature were calculated. As a result, As we compared sea surface temperature of surrounding area of nuclear power station with same area located 3 km east, there are temperature difference.
