| Earthquake is one of the most important natural disasters that annually causes a lot of damage to human and natural communities. These damages have always led researchers to look for a way to predict this phenomenon. These include using satellite images and analyzing them. Since technology has not yet been invented to accurately predict the location and time of an earthquake, it is very useful to examine the information and analysis of past earthquakes to better understand earthquake-related phenomena. In this study, thermal investigation of Bam fault, using ASTER and MODIS images in December 2003 earthquake Singel-channel algorithm and web coding in Google Earth engine, the heat trend was calculated for six months before and after the earthquake. This process was also monitored using hourly weather data from the Meteorological Organization near the study site to obtain a better view of the thermal status of the area. The results showed that contrary to existing beliefs, the earthquake had no detectable thermal effect with the ASTER and MODIS satellite images on the Earthchr('39')s surface. |
