  We investigate the thermal quantum and total correlations in the anisotropic
XY spin chain in transverse field. While we adopt concurrence and geometric
quantum discord to measure quantum correlations, we use measurement-induced
nonlocality and an alternative quantity defined in terms of Wigner-Yanase
information to quantify total correlations. We show that the ability of these
measures to estimate the critical point at finite temperature strongly depend
on the anisotropy parameter of the Hamiltonian. We also identify a correlation
measure which detects the factorized ground state in this model. Furthermore,
we study the effect of temperature on long-range correlations.
