水环境参数定量遥感反演空间尺度误差分析

对地观测技术的快速发展为水环境定量遥感监测提供了多源遥感数据的有利支撑,然而多源数据空间尺度差异引起的遥感数据和定量产品的不一致性严重制约了水环境科学研究和业务化应用。针对多源遥感数据的空间尺度转换和尺度误差问题,本文提出一种模拟遥感成像过程点扩散函数(PSF)的多源遥感数据空间尺度转换方法。以高空间分辨率GF-1卫星16m遥感数据为基础,模拟了常用的内陆水环境监测卫星Landsat TM/ETM+/OLI(30m)、Terra/Aqua MODIS(250m、500m、1000m)数据,系统研究了高动态浑浊水体(以鄱阳湖悬浮颗粒物监测为例)多源定量遥感监测的空间尺度误差,并对比分析了常用的多源数据尺度转换方法(基于遥感反射率数据平均法和基于悬浮颗粒物产品平均法)的有效性。结果表明,基于点扩散函数的空间尺度转换方法与传统方法具有较高的相关性,基于遥感反射率数据平均法的水环境定量遥感产品的误差水平低于基于悬浮颗粒物产品平均法;相对于南海等相对平稳水体的低空间尺度误差水平(0.5%),在高动态浑浊的内陆或近岸水环境遥感监测中,由空间尺度变化引起的产品误差可达±5%左右。因此,在高精度水环境定量遥感发展应用的需求和多源多尺度遥感数据协同的背景下,本文研究对于提高多源遥感监测产品的一致性和应用能力具有重要理论和现实意义。

Integration of Remote Sensing and GIS to Detect Pockets of Urban Poverty: The Case of Rosario, Argentina

The advent of high spatial resolution, multispectral satellite imagery has allowed analysis of remotely sensed images of urban land cover to become more useful to urban planning and decision making than in the past. The addition of radar imagery at relatively high spatial resolution (6 metres at best), with the advantages that it is not affected by cloud and diurnal light conditions and that it is sensitive to the target's geometric shape, surface roughness and moisture content offers additional capability in this regard. This paper incorporates analysis of Canadian RADARSAT-1 and American Landsat TM satellite imagery and ground-based GIS data to identify known pockets of urban poverty. Poverty is defined, based on a limited number of census variables related to dwelling construction materials and per household overcrowding. The objective is to provide a proof of concept that remote sensing data, especially from synthetic aperture radar, and ground-based GIS data can be successfully integrated for urban planning purposes. The results suggest that the approach used is reasonable and that, with future refinement, it offers planners and decision makers a timely and cost effective means to locate and monitor poverty pockets in urban areas. This is especially important in large, rapidly urbanising areas in the developing world.

森林郁闭度是森林资源调查中的一个重要因子,对森林质量评价具有重要作用。随着人工智能技术和遥感技术的不断发展,研究如何利用深度学习有效协同不同空间覆盖能力的遥感数据实现区域森林郁闭度的估测具有重要意义。由此提出了一种协同应用高密度无人机激光雷达和高空间分辨率卫星遥感数据,对区域森林郁闭度进行定量估测的深度学习模型（UnetR）。对用于图像分类的Unet模型的损失函数进行改进,并在卷积层后加入批量归一化层,使其具有对连续变量进行定量估测的能力。与全卷积神经网络、随机森林和支持向量机回归模型进行对比实验。结果表明,UnetR模型的均方根误差较低,估测精度较高,为实现区域森林郁闭度遥感监测提供了一种人力成本低、自动化程度高的估测方法。     

Estimation of daily average net radiation and its variation over West Bengal,India using MODIS products

A simple and exclusively satellite-based instantaneous net radiation (INR) and its components have been estimated and it is based on the method proposed. The method has been used to check its suitability over West Bengal, India on clear sky days which is eliminating the need for ground-based observations. The method explicitly recognizes the need for spatially varied input parameters to estimate net radiation using remote sensing information and provides a distributed daily average net radiation map with finer spatial resolution. The satellite-derived radiative flux components were compared with the Eddy Flux Tower measurements located at Bonnie camp within mangrove forest. The bias, root-mean square error and R² between modelled and measured INR are 52.07, 49.5 W m^?2 and 0.74, respectively which are within the acceptable limit. The errors in the downward short wave and long wave as well as upward short-wave and long-wave radiative flux are 13.78, 3.54, 12.41 and 3.54%, respectively. Further, variations of all the radiative flux components were analysed over different eco-systems.     

An unsupervised two-stage clustering approach for forest structure classification based on X-band InSAR data — A case study in complex temperate forest stands

Forest structure at stand level plays a key role for sustainable forest management, since the biodiversity, productivity, growth and stability of the forest can be positively influenced by managing its structural diversity. In contrast to field-based measurements, remote sensing techniques offer a cost-efficient opportunity to collect area-wide information about forest stand structure with high spatial and temporal resolution. Especially Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR), which facilitates worldwide acquisition of 3d information independent from weather conditions and illumination, is convenient to capture forest stand structure. This study purposes an unsupervised two-stage clustering approach for forest structure classification based on height information derived from interferometric X-band SAR data which was performed in complex temperate forest stands of Traunstein forest (South Germany). In particular, a four dimensional input data set composed of first-order height statistics was non-linearly projected on a two-dimensional Self-Organizing Map, spatially ordered according to similarity (based on the Euclidean distance) in the first stage and classified using the k-means algorithm in the second stage. The study demonstrated that X-band InSAR data exhibits considerable capabilities for forest structure classification. Moreover, the unsupervised classification approach achieved meaningful and reasonable results by means of comparison to aerial imagery and LiDAR data.     

Relative suitability of indices derived from Landsat ETM+ and SPOT 5 for detecting fire severity in sagebrush steppe

Remote sensing indices of burn area and fire severity have been developed and tested for forest ecosystems, but not sparsely vegetated, desert shrub-steppe in which large wildfires are a common occurrence and a major issue for land management. We compared the performance of remote sensing indices for detecting burn area and fire severity with extensive ground-based cover assessments made before and after the prescribed burning of a 3 km² shrub-steppe area. The remote sensing indices were based on either Landsat 7 ETM+ or SPOT 5 data, using either single or multiple dates of imagery. The indices delineating burned versus unburned areas had better overall, User, and Producer's accuracies than indices delineating levels of fire severity. The Soil Adjusted Vegetation Index (SAVI) calculated from SPOT had the greatest overall accuracy (100%) in delineating burned versus unburned areas. The relative differenced Normalized Burn Ratio (RdNBR) using Landsat ETM+ provided the highest accuracies (73% overall accuracy) for delineating fire severity. Though SPOT's spatial resolution likely conferred advantages for determining burn boundaries, the higher spectral resolution (particularly band 7, 2.21 μm) of Landsat ETM+ may be necessary for detecting differences in fire severity in sparsely vegetated shrub-steppe.

The use of motor-glider in topoclimatic studies

This paper reports on the advantages and disadvantages of motor-glider use in studying topoclimates. Despite the widespread use of images taken from low-altitude flying platforms (planes, helicopters, UAVs), the use of a motor-glider for imagery collection has not been reported in environmental studies. In presented study, the low-altitude remote sensing techniques were used to increase the spatial resolution of thermal maps derived from Landsat ETM+ thermal bands. Thermal images from motor-glider were taken by a thermovision camera. At the local scale, land surface temperature (LST) is one of the factors influencing topoclimatic diversity hence, by analysing LST distribution one can determine topoclimatic variability. Topoclimate has been the subject of previous studies, however, they have not used thermal remote sensing in the research process but instead relied on ground measurement network. The presented research contributes to better understanding of the thermal environment of the Earth by employing an innovative data collection method suitable for relatively large areas under specific weather conditions. The data collection with motor glider offers good spatial resolution of less than 1 m and facilitates the compilation of good quality LST maps. The paper discusses the influence of spatial resolution on LST variability and demonstrates gain in information granularity resulting from sub-meter resolution of collected data.

基于SPOT5遥感影像的城市森林叶面积指数反演

本文以上海城市森林为研究对象,采用地面实验与遥感技术相结合方法,开展SPOT5遥感影像在估测城市森林LAI中的应用研究。结果表明,地面实测LAI与三种植被指数均具有很好的线性回归关系,相关系数(r)均大于0.6,其中MSAVI的相关系数最高(r=0.66),其次为MCARI(r=0.64)和NDVI(r=0.62)。说明ND-VI仍受到背景等因素不同程度的影响,而植被指数MSAVI和MCARI,由于能进一步消除土壤背景和叶绿素的影响,对叶面积指数比较敏感,能更好地与叶面积指数建立关系,能更好地用于城市森林叶面积指数的遥感反演。本研究可为快速定量评估城市森林的结构和功能提供依据。     

GNSS-R土壤水分遥感的适宜性分析

利用GNSS-R(Global Navigation Satellite System-Reflectometry)技术探测土壤水分是近年来一个新兴的研究方向。目前GNSS-R遥感观测中反射信号的接收与处理方式包括单天线与多天线两种模式,面向实际应用需求,GNSS-R遥感正在实现从最初的地基观测向空基、星载观测的转变。在推进GNSS-R土壤水分遥感技术业务化应用的过程中,必须首先进行适宜性分析,确定该技术探测的地理位置、空间分辨率与探测深度,然而目前对此尚未有系统、全面、定量的论述。本文针对适宜性分析中的3个关键因子分别进行理论分析与公式推导,明确相关概念的定义,并实现定量化描述,最终通过实际应用分析进一步诠释其应用价值。对于单天线模式地基观测,以美国板块边界观测计划PBO(Plate Boundary Observatory)土壤水分产品为例,分析镜面反射点的相对位置、第一级Fresnel反射椭圆簇的面积与时间序列土壤水分所代表的探测深度;对于多天线模式,以郑州上街区农田空基观测试验为例,得到基于航迹的栅格土壤水分空间分布并探讨其探测深度。本文能够为未来两种观测模式下地基、空基和星载GNSS-R遥感观测、北斗反射信号遥感,以及GNSS-R在农业、水文、生态等领域的实际应用提供理论指导。     

基于北京二号与地理国情数据的林地提取

由于地理国情林地数据不包含实地面积小于400 m²的树木或四旁单排林,若仅利用地理国情的林地数据统计区域森林覆盖率,将对四旁树面积较大地区的林地统计结果产生较大误差。为提取区域内准确的林地覆盖与空间分布状况,本文借助地理国情地表覆盖数据,提出了一种基于北京二号高分辨率遥感影像的林地提取方法。首先,根据遥感影像光谱特征,将研究区按植被、道路、铁路、建筑用地进行地类划分,并基于遥感影像进行各地类的样本提取,通过可分离检验的样本利用最大似然分类提取研究区内植被覆盖范围;然后,借助地理国情地表覆盖数据,使用叠置分析剔除误分、错分地类,得到区域林地的空间分布。试验结果表明：(1)研究区内林地覆盖率为20.3%,尚未满足北京新一轮林地规划需求;(2)地理国情地表覆盖数据内林地面积占提取林地总面积的54.03%,说明在部分地区使用本文方法对地理国情林地数据进行补充是有必要的。通过将试验结果与遥感影像进行目视比对并结合外业调查结果发现,提取的林地空间分布情况与实际分布基本相符。本文为地理国情的应用提供了一种新方法,研究结果可辅助区域的绿色发展规划,有助于构建科学的生态空间格局。     

Broad-scale spatial pattern of forest landscape types in the Guiana Shield

Detecting broad scale spatial patterns across the South American rainforest biome is still a major challenge. Although several countries do possess their own, more or less detailed land-cover map, these are based on classifications that appear largely discordant from a country to another. Up to now, continental scale remote sensing studies failed to fill this gap. They mostly result in crude representations of the rainforest biome as a single, uniform vegetation class, in contrast with open vegetations. A few studies identified broad scale spatial patterns, but only when they managed to map a particular forest characteristic such as biomass. The main objective of this study is to identify, characterize and map distinct forest landscape types within the evergreen lowland rainforest at the sub-continental scale of the Guiana Shield (north-east tropical South-America 10° North-2° South; 66° West-50° West). This study is based on the analysis of a 1-year daily data set (from January 1st to December 31st, 2000) from the VEGETATION sensor onboard the SPOT-4 satellite (1-km spatial resolution). We interpreted remotely sensed landscape classes (RSLC) from field and high resolution remote sensing data of 21 sites in French Guiana. We cross-analyzed remote sensing data, field observations and environmental data using multivariate analysis. We obtained 33 remotely sensed landscape classes (RSLC) among which five forest-RSLC representing 78% of the forested area. The latter were classified as different broad forest landscape types according to a gradient of canopy openness. Their mapping revealed a new and meaningful broad-scale spatial pattern of forest landscape types. At the scale of the Guiana Shield, we observed a spatial patterns similarity between climatic and forest landscape types. The two most open forest-RSLCs were observed mainly within the north-west to south-east dry belt. The three other forest-RSLCs were observed in wetter and less anthropized areas, particularly in the newly recognized “Guianan dense forest arch”. Better management and conservation policies, as well as improvement of biological and ecological knowledge, require accurate and stable representations of the geographical components of ecosystems. Our results represent a decisive step in this way for the Guiana Shield area and contribute to fill one of the major shortfall in the knowledge of tropical forests.     

Digital thermal monitoring of the Amazon forest: an intercomparison of satellite and reanalysis products

Remote sensing and climate digital products have become increasingly available in recent years. Access to these products has favored a variety of Digital Earth studies, such as the analysis of the impact of global warming over different biomes. The study of the Amazon forest response to drought has recently received particular attention from the scientific community due to the occurrence of extreme droughts and anomalous warming over the last decade. This paper focuses on the differences observed between surface thermal anomalies obtained from remote sensing moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) and climatic (ERA-Interim) monthly products over the Amazon forest. With a few exceptions, results show that the spatial pattern of standardized anomalies is similar for both products. In terms of absolute anomalies, the differences between the two products show a bias near to zero with a standard deviation of around 0.2?K, although the differences can be up to 1?K over particular regions and months. Despite this general agreement, the proper filtering of MODIS daily values in order to construct a new monthly product showed a dramatic reduction in the number of reliable pixels during the rainy season, while for the dry season this reduction is only seen in Northern Amazonia.     

遥感数据空间尺度分级模型与基本比例尺关系

多源遥感数据综合应用是遥感发展的必然趋势,统一的遥感数据空间尺度分级模型是多源数据集成与综合应用的基础。虽然已有多种空间尺度分级模型,但很多主流模型并非出于分尺度综合应用目的,缺乏客观的比较和评价。国家基本比例尺系统作为经过论证、中国应用面最广泛、接受度最高的一种尺度分级系统,是以应用为导向的遥感数据空间尺度分级模型的最优参照系。从不同视觉精度下国家基本比例尺对图像空间分辨率的需求出发,比较各空间尺度分级模型的层级分辨率与需求分辨率的匹配情况,包括OGC Well Known Scale Set的Global CRS84Pixel和Google Maps Compatible,以及NASA World Wind、Google Map、百度地图、天地图等软件平台采用的层级格网系统,以及"五层十五级"遥感数据组织模型,通过对数据信息冗余度的分析,对各个模型进行了评价。结果表明,在高视觉精度应用需求下,"五层十五级"模型与基本比例尺精度要求具有较明显的匹配优势,其次为OGC Google Maps Compatible模型和天地图模型,其余模型平均数据冗余倍数在2倍左右;在低视觉精度应用需求下,"五层十五级"模型平均数据冗余度仍为最低,其次为Google Map模型,其余模型平均数据冗余倍数都在2倍以上。     

Remote sensing of water vapor content using ground-based GPS data

Spatial and temporal resolution of water vapor content is useful in improving the accuracy of short-term weather prediction. Dense and continuously tracking regional GPS arrays will play an important role in remote sensing atmospheric water vapor content. In this study, a piecewise linear solution method was proposed to estimate the precipitable water vapor (PWV) content from ground-based GPS observations in Hong Kong. To evaluate the solution accuracy of the water vapor content sensed by GPS, the upper air sounding data (radiosonde) that are collected locally was used to calculate the precipitable water vapor during the same period. One-month results of PWV from both ground-based GPS sensing technique and radiosonde method are in agreement within 1–2 mm. This encouraging result will motivate the GPS meteorology application based on the establishment of a dense GPS array in Hong Kong.
