Water temperature getting warmer can lead to the  excessive growing of the phytoplanktons in lakes and currently, there is a drop of water  quality due to occurrence of eutrophication to the lakes in Sardinia Island, observed widely.  Thus, it was considered essential to monitor the water quality of lakes in Sardinia.  This study used multi-source and multi-technique approach of Remote Sensing to  accomplish the Water Surface Temperature (WST) database to support studying and  monitoring the environment of water. Also, this study demonstrated the correlation among  the water and air temperature which were obtained from Global Circulation Model (GCM).  A strong correlation between estimated WST from Landsat and observed WST was found  through this study, along with the observation that WST from MODIS have poor accuracy  when compared with observed WST whereas the MODIS accuracy was improved when  WST of MODIS was done along with resealing. Moreover, WST of MODIS and estimated  WST from Landsat are correlated.         0aWater temperaturezSardinia IslandxRemote sensing images  0aTemperaturexRemote sensing 0aAtmospheric temperaturezSardinia Island1 aVirdis, Salvatore G.P.,eChairperson1 aTripathi, Nitin Kumar,eExamination Committee1 aShrestha, Sangam,eExamination Committee1 aPadedda, Bachisio Mario,eExamination Committee2 aRoyal Thai Government Fellowship,eScholarship Donor2 aAsian Institute of Technology.tThesis ;vno.
