What is Land suitability assessment for second cropping in terms of low temperature stresses using landsat TIRS sensor about?

The second cropping which is done in the autumn after the main cultivation is one of the ways to increase food security, farmers' income, and thus prevent migration of villagers. The main limiting factor in autumn cultivation is the reduction in ambient and soil temperatures, which causes a severe drop in crop yield if it reaches below the physiological base temperature and freezing temperature. In Gilan, one of the northern provinces of Iran more than 90 % of agricultural land is cultivated once a year and has no production in half of the year. Accordingly, the purpose of the present study is to evaluate the feasibility of autumn cultivation of rice and hull-less seed pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L. var. pepo subsp. styriaca) in terms low temperature stresses. In the first step, the land use map was prepared using the fusion of images with panchromatic band of Landsat 8 Maximum Likelihood classification method and then agricultural lands were separated. The land surface temperature (LST) maps were extracted on two dates, October 30, 2018 and December 17, 2019 using the TIRS sensor. Comparison of the estimated data with the meteorological data showed that LST was 0.6 • C higher than the
