Green, moisture-retaining natural environments become impermeable artificial surfaces as a result of urbanization, changes in land cover, and the rate of melting. These changes in land cover caused by humans have a big impact on the microclimate. The urban environment gets hotter due to the rise in artificial surfaces and the fall in greenery, particularly in regular areas. Heat islands are what these situations are known as. This study uses data from Landsat 5 TM and Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS Konya for the years 1985-2005-2015-2021 of the Selçuklu district, a highly developed province with a population and service sector resulting from industrial development between 1985 and 2015, as well as sensors and industrial zones. The impact of increase on Land Surface Temperature (LST) was explored. Land surface temperature tests conducted separately for residential and industrial zones, a significant rise was noted in industrial areas. Increased land surface temperatures caused by industrialization in the Selçuk region also impacted the villages nearby, resulting in an increase in land surface temperature in areas close to the industrial area. This leads us to the conclusion that industrial regions have a greater impact on temperature than residential areas.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAtmospheric Heat IslandLand and Sea TemperaturesLandsat 5 TM and Landsat 8 OLITire Satellite SensorsArticle10.36306/konjes.1552187
