Abstract: | The thermal infrared channel (IRS4) of HJ-1B satellite obtains view zenith angles (VZA) up to ±33°. The view angle should
be taken into account when retrieving land surface temperature (LST) from IRS4 data. This study aims at improving the mono-window
algorithm for retrieving LST from IRS4 data. Based on atmospheric radiative transfer simulations, a model for correcting the
VZA effects on atmospheric transmittance is proposed. In addition, a generalized model for calculating the effective mean
atmospheric temperature is developed. Validation with the simulated dataset based on standard atmospheric profiles reveals
that the improved mono-window algorithm for IRS4 obtains high accuracy for LST retrieval, with the mean absolute error (MAE)
and root mean square error (RMSE) being 1.0 K and 1.1 K, respectively. Numerical experiment with the radiosonde profile acquired
in Beijing in winter demonstrates that the improved mono-window algorithm exhibits excellent ability for LST retrieval, with
MAE and RMSE being 0.6 K and 0.6 K, respectively. Further application in Qinghai Lake and comparison with the Moderate-Resolution
Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) LST product suggest that the improved mono-window algorithm is applicable and feasible in
actual conditions. |
