For the correlation analysis, the Terra and Aqua Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) daytime and nighttime LST and maximum, minimum, and mean SAT were measured at 79 weather stations of the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) from 2008 to 2018. As a result of the correlation analysis between SAT and LST, the maximum SAT (TMX) had a good correlation with the daytime LST of Terra MODIS, with a Pearson\u2019s correlation coefficient (R) of 0.92 and root mean square error (RMSE) of 4.8 \u00b0C, and the minimum SAT (TMN) showed a good correlation with the nighttime LST of Terra MODIS, with an R of 0.93 and RMSE of 4.2 \u00b0C. When analyzing temperature characteristics by land use (urban, paddy, upland crop, forest, grass, wetland, bare field, and water), it was confirmed that the climate mitigation effect of the wetland and vegetation area appeared in the LSTs and the observed SAT. In the cold wave period, the average temperatures for urban and wetland areas was the highest, and the average temperature for wetland and forest was not higher than that of other land use classes. As the SAT results predicted through the LSTM model, the accuracy of the TMN during the cold wave period was 0.59 for the coefficient of determination (R2), 3.1 \u00b0C for RMSE, and 0.76 for the index of agreement (IoA), while the accuracy of the TMX for the heat wave period was 0.24 for R2, 2.23 \u00b0C for RMSE, and 0.63 for IoA.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs12193231","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,5]],"date-time":"2020-10-05T08:35:57Z","timestamp":1601886957000},"page":"3231","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":27,"title":["Correlation Analysis between Air Temperature and MODIS Land Surface Temperature and Prediction of Air Temperature Using TensorFlow Long Short-Term Memory for the Period of Occurrence of Cold and Heat Waves"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9623-0465","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jeehun","family":"Chung","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil, Environmental and Plant Engineering, College of Engineering, Konkuk University, Seoul 05029, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7681-8982","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yonggwan","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil, Environmental and Plant Engineering, College of Engineering, Konkuk University, Seoul 05029, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0949-4735","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Wonjin","family":"Jang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil, Environmental and Plant Engineering, College of Engineering, Konkuk University, Seoul 05029, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Siwoon","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"DEEPNOID Inc., #1305, 55, Digital-ro 33-gil, Guro-gu, Seoul 08376, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Seongjoon","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Civil and Environmental Engineering, College of Engineering, Konkuk University, 120 Neungdong-ro, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul 05029, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"38","article-title":"Cold Wave Climate Characteristics and Risk Zoning in Jilin Province","volume":"6","author":"Xu","year":"2018","journal-title":"J.
