高灵敏度机载L波段微波辐射计探测海表盐度

海水盐度是研究大洋环流和全球气候变化的重要参数,L波段(1400-1427MHz)微波辐射计是进行海水盐度遥感的最有效工具.在该频段内,微波辐射亮度温度对海水盐度变化的灵敏度为0.5K/psu,而用于海洋研究的盐度分辨率为0.1-0.2psu,要求微波辐射计的灵敏度优于0.1K.高灵敏度机载L波段微波辐射计,应用数字增益波动自动补偿和温度补偿技术,保证了系统的稳定性,并采用高效的滤波技术有效地抑制了全球定位信号(GPS)对接收机的干扰,灵敏度达到0.08K.进行了多次航空和海上对比遥感试验,获得了分辨率优于0.2psu、误差精度0.42psu的测量结果.     

Accuracy assessment of lidar-derived digital elevation models

Despite the relatively high cost of airborne lidar-derived digital elevation models (DEMs), such products are usually presented without a satisfactory associated estimate of accuracy. For the most part, DEM accuracy estimates are typically provided by comparing lidar heights against a finite sample of check point coordinates from an independent source of higher accuracy, supposing a normal distribution of the derived height differences or errors. This paper proposes a new methodology to assess the vertical accuracy of lidar DEMs using confidence intervals constructed from a finite sample of errors computed at check points. A non-parametric approach has been tested where no particular error distribution is assumed, making the proposed methodology especially applicable to non-normal error distributions of the type usually found in DEMs derived from lidar. The performance of the proposed model was experimentally validated using Monte Carlo simulation on 18 vertical error data-sets. Fifteen of these data-sets were computed from original lidar data provided by the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing Working Group III/3, using their respective filtered reference data as ground truth. The three remaining data-sets were provided by the Natural Environment Research Council's Airborne Research and Survey Facility lidar system, together with check points acquired using high precision kinematic GPS. The results proved promising, the proposed models reproducing the statistical behaviour of vertical errors of lidar using a favourable number of check points, even in the cases of data-sets with non-normally distributed residuals. This research can therefore be considered as a potentially important step towards improving the quality control of lidar-derived DEMs.     

植被的微波散射与吸收特征

被动微波遥感中大尺度像元内植被种类多种多样并且分布不均匀，较低频率下像元尺度内的植被影响可以根据单个散射体的散射与衰减特性获得。本文讨论了任意朝向的各类植被散射体的计算问题。其中叶片和针叶的散射采用了一般化Rayleigh-Gans计算；杆的散射采用了无限长近似理论。关于各类散射体的衰减，本文比较了散射系数和吸收系数之和，与前向散射定理的结果，并对前向定理的适用性进行了讨论。     

星载紫外遥感辐射计积分球定标新方法的研究

在紫外波段，使用常规手段实现高精度的辐射定标是比较困难的，这主要是由于标准灯的定标不确定度约4％和漫反射板双向反射分布函数（BRDF）的测量不确定度4％-6％所致。为了提高定标精度，本文应用积分球辐亮度定标方法，获得了接近理想的大面积辐亮度光源（约2％），标定了在研的星载紫外遥感光谱辐射计的亮度响应度。文中将标准灯考虑为均匀亮度的点光源，对辐射计的投影视场进行了照明因子修正。同时进行了常规的灯-板定标方法与积分球定标新方法的比较，得到了采用两种方法标定的辐射计亮度响应度有较好的一致性（3％）的结论。初步的定标数据分析比对显示，漫反射板BRDF的测量不确定度和仪器投影视场内辐亮度的计算不确定度是比对中不一致主要的来源。

基于NDVI背景场的雪盖制图算法探索

NDSI算法提取MSS雪盖面积时,受到MSS影像缺少短波红外波段的局限。为充分精确提取MSS影像的雪盖面积,本文探索一种以NDVI为背景场的雪盖制图新思路。该方法首先在辐射校正时利用6S模型反演地表反射率,然后根据各地物的光谱特性差异和NDVI特性差异,在ENVI软件SPECTRAL模块中创建冰雪光谱阈值查找表。通过ETM＋和TM影像的三个例证,详细阐明该算法流程以及查找表的创建,并以NDSI对其雪盖制图进行精度验证。结果一致表明,与常规的分类方法（最大似然法）相比较,本文探索的NDVI背景场算法有更高的总体精度和Kappa系数。     

MODIS与TM冬小麦种植面积遥感测量一致性研究——小区域实验研究

针对大范围冬小麦种植面积遥感测量业务化运行中所存在的不同空间分辨率遥感影像的获取能力、空间分辨率与测量精度之间相互制约的现实问题,选择典型实验区,采取全覆盖的多时相低分辨率MODIS数据与中高分辨率TM样区数据相结合的方法,以支持向量机（SVM）为主要技术手段,通过选取不同比例的TM样本量,对MODIS进行混合像元分解,并对MODIS冬小麦测量结果与TM测量结果进行一致性分析,进而提出了一套可用于大范围冬小麦种植面积遥感测量业务化推广的识别和精度检验方法。研究结果表明：当TM样本量大于5%时,相对于TM识别结果而言,MODIS像元精度可以稳定在82%以上;当TM样本量大于40%时,区域精度可以稳定在97%。因此,从理论上讲,在实际业务化运行中,只要能够获得监测区40%的中高分辨率的影像,采用本研究提出的多尺度冬小麦种植面积测量方法,基本上可以满足业务化运行的精度要求。
