  7. Abstract:
  8. Human as an important part of the natural environment and can exert their positive or negative effects in the form of long-term and short-term on a natural environment. Human impacts on the natural system are very complex and consist of various components. The most considerable among them from past to now are maybe land use and land cover change, although, the impact of dam construction, water pollution, air pollution and etc, can not be neglected. To quantify the impact of these changes, many researchers have studied meteorological and climatic parameters using statistical relationships, but one major problem always existed, the low spatial accuracy of meteorological data. In recent years, improvement of the remote sensing science opened great doors for researchers to progress. The purpose of this study is to analyze the temporal and spatial variations of the climate parameters using different satellite remote sensing products. First of all, it is essential to choose the parameters that can accurately describe the climate of an area. For this purpose, five parameters include land cover, albedo coefficient, evapotranspiration, land surface temperature and aerosol optical depth are selected. The time series of the parameters are analyzed in appropriate time intervals. The results show the trend for most of the parameters in different geographical locations. In this study, Modis products and R program for data analysis, were used
