Abstract: The spatial pattern of urban thermal force field is not only the dominant content in assessing city ecological environment, but also an important base for city green system planning. The status of spatial pattern of thermal force field in Harbin was analyzed with RSand GIStechniques. Based on the instantaneous radiation temperature of the land surfaces in the city when the TMimage was sensed remotely, all the patches were divided into 3 levels, i.e., low radiation temperature (<10℃), middle radiation temperature (10～22℃), and high radiation temperature of the land surfaces (22～31℃). The patches with high radiation temperature accounted for 61%, those with low radiation temperature accounted for 17%, and those with middle radiation temperature accounted for 22%. 7018 patches (12252 hm² in total) with super-thermal radiation (>28℃) were uneven in their areas. The biggest area in these patches was 1489 hm², and the smallest one was 0.72 hm². The proportion of the patches with an area less than1 hm², between1～5 hm², and more than5 hm² was 95.02%, 3.46%, and 1.58 %, respectively. There were 3 types of spatial patterns of the super-thermal radiation patches, i.e., round form (the average radiation temperature was 30.8℃), ring form (the average radiation temperature was 27℃), and pieces form (the average radiation temperature was 24.7℃). Daowai District and Daoli District were round form, districts along the ring routes of railway in the city were ring form, and Nangang District and Dongli District were pieces form. Some advices to resolve the problem of ‘heat island effect' influenced by the factors including greenland covering rate, greenland area and building dimension were discussed.
