基于被动微波遥感的青藏高原雪深反演及其结果评价

采用修正的张氏雪深反演算法，用ＳＳＭ／Ｉ３７ＧＨz和19GHz水平极化亮温值计算了青藏高原及其毗邻地区的积雪深度，对其精度进行了评价，并对误差来源进行了分析，结果显示，此算法能够较好地反映研究区的雪深分布，但局部地区误差较大，总体上雪深被高估，其误差主要来源于冻土，深霜层，植被以及雪层中液态水含量，雪粒的形状和粒径的变化带来的影响，SSM／I数据较低的分辨率和研究区复杂的地形使反演的雪深与观测的雪深缺少可比性，给精度的评价带来影响。

Microwave response of seasonal snow-cover measured by using a ground-based radiometer at 6.93 and 18.7 ghz frequencies and at dual polarization

Snow cover is an important variable for climatic and hydrologic models due to its effects on surface albedo, energy, and moisture budgets. Passive microwave sensors can be used to monitor temporal and spatial variations in large-scale snow cover parameters, avoiding problems of cloud cover and polar nights. In the present study, brightness temperature values were estimated (using calibration curves) for moist snow on natural and blackbody/metal surface. T_B response on snow depth, density, SWE and angular variation from nadir were measured and found that T_B decreases with increase of snow depth and with increase of angle from nadir. Empirical relations were used to estimate emissivity, dielectric constant and dielectric loss factor. It was observed that emissivity decreases with the increase of dielectric constant. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss factor both increases with the increase of density. Experiments were performed during winter of year 2005 at Dhundi and Solang (H.P.), India, using ground based passive microwave radiometer having 6.9 and 18.7 GHz antenna frequencies at dual polarization.     

1979年—2019年兴凯湖湖冰物候变化的被动微波遥感监测

季节性冻结与消融的湖冰是气候变化的重要指示器。本文以兴凯湖为例,基于1979年—2019年的被动微波遥感数据获取了兴凯湖的冻融日期,用2000年—2019年的中等分辨率成像光谱仪MODIS(Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer)数据进行了验证,并用气候数据分析了湖冰物候变化的原因。结果表明被动微波与MODIS遥感数据在湖冰物候提取方面具有较好的一致性,也即MODIS的验证结果表明用低频被动微波亮度温度数据获取湖冰物候的方法是可行的,结果也是可靠的。平均而言,兴凯湖湖冰每年11-13左右开始冻结,11-23左右完全冻结,湖冰冻结持续时间9.80 d;次年04-23左右湖冰开始消融,04-30左右湖冰完全消融,消融持续时间8.03 d;湖冰完全封冻时间150.50 d,湖冰覆盖时间168.03 d。过去41 a,兴凯湖开始冻结日期没有明显变化,完全冻结日期平均推后了0.19 d/a,开始消融日期和完全消融日期分别提前了0.16 d/a和0.13 d/a,湖泊完全封冻时间和湖冰覆盖时间分别缩短了12.71 d和2.87 d。湖冰冻结日期推后与风速增大密切相关,消融日期提前和湖冰持续时间缩短与气温升高显著相关。

Accuracy assessment of four cloud-free snow cover products over the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Four up-to-date daily cloud-free snow products – IMS (Interactive Multisensor Snow products), MOD-SSM/I (combination of the MODIS and SSM/I snow products), MOD-B (Blending method basing on the MODIS snow cover products) and TAI (Terra–Aqua–IMS) – with high-resolutions over the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) were comprehensively assessed. Comparisons of the IMS, MOD-SSM/I, MOD-B and TAI cloud-free snow products against meteorological stations observations over 10 snow seasons (2004–2013) over the QTP indicated overall accuracies of 76.0%, 89.3%, 92.0% and 92.0%, respectively. The K_hat values of the IMS, MOD-SSM/I, MOD-B and TAI products were 0.084, 0.463, 0.428 and 0.526, respectively. The TAI products appear to have the best cloud-removal ability among the four snow products over the QTP. Based on the assessment, an I-TAI (Improvement of Terra–Aqua–IMS) snow product was proposed, which can improve the accuracy to some extent. However, the algorithms of the MODIS series products show instability when identifying wet snow and snow under forest cover over the QTP. The snow misclassification is an important limitation of MODIS snow cover products and requires additional improvements.

Evaluation of Precipitation Features in High-Frequency SSM/I Measurements Over Indian Land and Oceanic Regions

Evaluation of the Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM/I) precipitation features is presented from various passes over Indian oceanic and land regions under the framework of radiative transfer simulations for both emission and scattering atmospheres. There is considerable uncertainty in the interpretation of the SSM/I high-frequency scattering features for development of rainfall algorithms. Specifically large areas of very low emissivity regimes showing false rain signatures due to the presence of low brightness temperatures (TBs) that are often present in the vicinity of colder sea surface areas in the 85-GHz TB from SSM/I. In this connection, the Polarization Corrected Temperature (PCT) defined by Spencer using the 85-GHz channels, vertical (V) and horizontal (H), has been studied to delineate these surface effects. These false scattering signatures, once corrected using PCT as a suitable parameter, significantly improve the quality of the SSM/I-derived precipitation areas. These results are also confirmed with the cloud optical depth data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer sensor onboard the Aqua satellite and the standard merged rain product (geostationary infrared and Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) microwave data) 3B42 from TRMM. This letter is aimed for selecting PCT as one of the suitable predictor variables for the development of operational rainfall retrieval algorithm for the Indo-French Megha-Tropiques satellite's microwave radiometer at high frequencies.

SSM/I极地亮温资料中的4个月振荡现象

SSM/I仪器采用圆锥扫描方式,避免了AMSU-A等跨轨迹横扫仪器观测资料中存在的临边效应,其观测资料更加适用于空间特征分析。因此,利用1998年—2008年SSM/I仪器极地观测亮温资料,经谱分析、小波分析以及经验正交函数(EOF)分析,验证了南、北极地区的4个月振荡(后简称FMO)现象,揭示了南、北极地区FMO现象的时空分布特征。结果显示:(1)SSM/I 19V/H,37V/H通道在南、北极的亮温观测中有显著的FMO现象,北极亮温值FMO峰值出现在3月、7月和11月上旬,南极FMO峰值出现在4月、8月和12月中旬;(2)北极的FMO增强年为1999年、2002年和2006年;南极为1998年、2001年、2005年和2008年;(3)从12月到次年5月,当海冰面积基本不变时,亮温值随表面温度变化而变化;6到10月,表面温度基本不变时,亮温值随海冰面积变化而变化。当海冰FMO和表面温度FMO均位于相对较大值时,亮温的FMO达到峰值;当海冰FMO和温度FMO都相对较小时,则亮温的FMO到达谷值,其中海冰的影响较大;(4)北极大部分地区呈现同位相的FMO现象;南极不同区域间有显著差异:威德尔海(Weddell Sea,20°W—60°W,60°S—75°S)与拉扎列夫海域(Lazarev sea,20°W—30°E,60°S—70°S)FMO位相相反;90°W到180°W的绕极海域内60°S到70°S纬度带与70°S到80°S纬度带的FMO位相相反。综上,SSM/I对极地的观测亮温中有显著的FMO现象,其振荡强度存在年际变化。地表亮温的FMO主要受到表面温度变化和海冰凝结融化过程的共同作用。在空间特征上,北极大部分地区呈现同位相的FMO现象;南极不同区域间有显著差异。     

利用多光谱卫星遥感和深度学习方法进行青藏高原积雪判识

青藏高原积雪对全球气候变化十分重要,针对已有积雪遥感判识方法中普遍采用的可见光与红外光谱数据易受复杂地形与高海拔影响,导致青藏高原地区积雪判识精度较低的问题,提出了一种基于多光谱遥感与地理信息数据特征级融合的积雪遥感判识方法:以风云三号卫星可见光与红外多光谱遥感资料与多要素地理信息作为数据源,由地面实测雪深数据与现有积雪产品交叉筛选出样本标签,构建并训练基于层叠去噪自编码器(SDAE)的特征融合与分类网络,从而有效辨识青藏高原遥感图像中的云、积雪以及无雪地表。经地面实测雪深数据验证,该方法分类精度显著高于使用相同数据源的FY-3A/MULSS积雪产品,略高于国际主流积雪产品MOD10A1与MYD10A1,并且年均云覆盖率最低。试验结果表明该方法可有效地减少云层对积雪判识的干扰,提升分类精度。

Snow Cover Monitoring in Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau Based on Chinese Fengyun-3/VIRR Data

Snow cover monitoring in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau is very important to global climate change research. Because of the geographic distribution of ground meteorological stations in Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau is too sparse, satellite remote sensing became the only choice for snow cover monitoring in Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. In this paper, multi-channel data from Visible and Infrared Radiometer (VIRR) on Chinese polar orbiting meteorological satellites Fengyun-3(FY-3) are utilized for snow cover monitoring, in this work, the distribution of snow cover is extracted from the normalized difference snow index(NDSI), and the multi-channel threshold from the brightness temperature difference in infrared channels. Then, the monitoring results of FY-3A and FY-3B are combined to generate the daily composited snow cover product. Finally, the snow cover products from MODIS and FY-3 are both verified by snow depth of meteorological station observations, result shows that the FY-3 products and MODIS products are basically consistent, the overall accuracy of FY-3 products is higher than MODIS products by nearly 1 %. And the cloud coverage rate of FY-3 products is less than MODIS by 2.64 %. This work indicates that FY-3/VIRR data can be reliable data sources for monitoring snow cover in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau.     

Monitoring of Snow Cover Variability in Chenab Basin Using IRS AWiFS Sensor

Monitoring of seasonal snow cover is important for many applications such as melt runoff estimation, climate change studies and strategic requirements. Contribution of seasonal snow melt runoff of Chenab River is significant and important to meet hydrological requirement at foothills. Seasonal snow cover of Chandra, Bhaga, Miyar, Bhut, Warwan and Ravi, six major tributaries of Chenab River, becomes crucial to assess the water availability. In addition, altitudinal distribution of snow cover significantly influences the melt runoff which is highly sensitive to minor variations in atmospheric temperature. In this investigation, remote sensing based Normalized Difference Snow Index technique has been used to generate 10 daily snow cover product. Snow cover monitoring of all the sub-basins were carried out for 10 years from 2004–2005 to 2013–2014 during hydrological year (October to June) using Advanced Wide Field Sensor (AWiFS) of Indian remote sensing satellite (IRS). Accumulation and ablation patterns of snow cover have also been analyzed for the six sub-basins. Accumulation and ablation pattern of snow cover, from 2004 to 2014 which shows slightly increasing trend for all the sub-basins. Meteorological data of Kelong at Bhaga sub-basin was also analysed. Average monthly snow line altitude was estimated for all the sub-basins using hypsographic curve. Chandra and Bhaga sub-basins are at higher altitude and Ravi sub-basin is at lower altitude. It was also observed that areal extent of snow reaches to lower altitude during last 5 years, particularly in Ravi sub-basin.     

Analysis of snow cover and climatic variability in Bhaga basin located in western Himalaya

Bhaga Basin has complex mountainous terrain; little study has been done on the spatial and temporal characteristics of snow cover in the region. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) 8-day snow cover products between 2001 and 2012 for winter period (November–April) have been used to study the variation in snow cover area (SCA). The statistical analysis based on non-parametric Mann Kendall and Sen’s slope methods have been used for detecting and estimating trends for climatic variables (temperature and snowfall) and SCA for winter period. Results of statistical analysis indicate rise in minimum temperature (0.02 °C year^?1) and fall in maximum temperature (0.17 °C year^?1). It also shows decrease in mean seasonal snowfall (0.07 cm year^?1). The seasonal SCA was found to decrease at the rate of 0.002% year^?1. This study indicates that the climate change is probably one of the major causes for depleting SCA.     

A method for monthly mapping of wet and dry snow using Sentinel-1 and MODIS: Application to a Himalayan river basin

Satellite Remote Sensing, with both optical and SAR instruments, can provide distributed observations of snow cover over extended and inaccessible areas. Both instruments are complementary, but there have been limited attempts at combining their measurements. We describe a novel approach to produce monthly maps of dry and wet snow areas through application of data fusion techniques to MODIS fractional snow cover and Sentinel-1 wet snow mask, facilitated by Google Earth Engine. The method is demonstrated in a 55,000 km² river basin in the Indian Himalayan region over a period of ∼2.5 years, although it can be applied to any areas of the world where Sentinel-1 data are routinely available. The typical underestimation of wet snow area by SAR is corrected using a digital elevation model to estimate the average melting altitude. We also present an empirical model to derive the fractional cover of wet snow from Sentinel-1. Finally, we demonstrate that Sentinel-1 effectively complements MODIS as it highlights a snowmelt phase which occurs with a decrease in snow depth but no/little decrease in snowpack area. Further developments are now needed to incorporate these high resolution observations of snow areas as inputs to hydrological models for better runoff analysis and improved management of water resources and flood risk.
