Popis: Urbanisation is an ever-evolving, complicated continuous process distinct from its surroundings, having the tendency to create a micro-scale system with characteristic local environmental conditions. Large-scale urbanization near the coasts has a definite impact on the coastal processes due to dynamic interactions of the coastal waters with the urban atmospheric, hydrological and anthropogenic residues. This study focuses on understanding the contribution of immediate atmospheric variations due to urbanization on surface temperature of coastal waters along the Mumbai coast. Different meteorological and air quality parameters such as Air Temperature (AT), Land Surface Temperature (LST), Precipitation (P), Relative Humidity (RH), Wind Speed (WS) and Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) collectively were used as determinants of local urban climatic environment; to analyse and understand the impact of urbanization on Sea Surface Temperature (SST) representing coastal system. ERA5 Reanalysis meteorological data and MODIS satellite data products were used to extract information of the said parameters for a period of 20 years and time-series analysis was performed for each using Mann-Kendall method to establish their trend. Harmonic regression using Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) and Neural Network Autoregression (NNAR) were used to model the existing and forecast the future trend of SST which showed an increasing trend with comparatively better representation by NNAR (RMSE 0.4 – 0.7 K). Further, a polynomial multiple regression model was built to correlate the influence of all urban climatic parameters with SST, which clearly indicated positive forcing of local climate variation on the coastal waters with an R2 value of 0.93.
