光学与微波植被指数协同反演农作物叶面积指数的可行性分析

光学遥感是目前反演植被叶面积指数LAI（Leaf Area Index）的主要手段,但是当叶面积指数较大时存在光学遥感信息饱和、反演精度显著降低的问题。叶面积指数和平均叶倾角对光学、微波波段范围内反射和散射特性都有重要影响,主要表现在植被结构参数的变化可以引起冠层孔隙率和消光截面大小的改变。本文以典型农作物玉米为例,通过构建统一的PROSAIL和MIMICS模型输入参数,生成一套玉米全生长期光学二向反射率和全极化微波后向散射系数模拟库和冠层参数库。通过对模拟数据与LAI敏感性和相关性分析得出：（1）光学植被指数MNDVI_{(800 nm,2000 nm)},在LAI为0—3时敏感,基于MNDVI与LAI的回归模型可以估算LAI变化 0.4的情况,RMSE是0.33,R²是0.958。（2）微波植被指数SAR_{SRVI(1.4 GHz HH,9.6 GHz HV)},在LAI为3—6时敏感,基于SAR_SRVI与LAI的回归模型可以估算LAI变化1的情况,RMSE为0.22,R²是0.9839。研究表明,采用分段敏感的植被指数,协同光学和微波遥感反演玉米全生长期叶面积指数是可行的。     

基于SAIL模型的多角度多光谱遥感叶面积指数反演

随着多角度传感器的陆续出现及植被遥感传输机理研究的深入,多角度遥感逐渐成为地表信息反演的热点问题.以SAIL冠层反射率模型为基础,通过联合多角度和多光谱数据,可以从物理机理角度进行植被叶面积指数(LAI)反演的应用研究.首先通过计算得到多角度多光谱遥感影像的角度信息,并经6S模型纠正后得到多光谱多角度植被冠层反射率数据.然后将PROSPECT模型模拟出的植被叶片反射率和透过率,以及多角度观测数据、LAI和其它实测数据输入SAIL模型,模拟得到了多角度多光谱冠层反射率,进而建立多角度多光谱冠层反射率与LAI的查找表.最后,将影像的多角度多光谱冠层反射率与查找表进行匹配,实现植被LAI的反演.最后对反演结果进行了验证和分析,结果表明反演精度较高,误差均在合理范围之内.

基于地面实测和PROSAIL模型模拟数据,研究了新型传感器HJ-1ACCD与TM数据一致性问题,分析了传感器天顶角和光谱相应函数差异的影响,对比两种传感器数据估算草地LAI和鲜生物量的效果,得出以下结论:(1)HJ-1ACCD和TM反射率数据的拟合系数R2在0.7322和0.9205左右,在反射率较小时,两种传感器数据一致性较好;随着反射率增大,HJ-1ACCD数值逐渐高于TM。总体而言,在可见光和近红外波段,两种传感器较为接近,其中红波段最接近。(2)两种传感器的NDVI数据一致性非常高,且受传感器天顶角和光谱响应函数影响作用较小(相对误差约为0.34%—0.53%),而反射率的相对差别在3.34%—9.54%。(3)传感器天顶角较光谱响应函数对反射率影响更大。(4)基于HJ-1ACCD反射率数据估算草地LAI和鲜生物量效果较好,其中以CCD2传感器估算效果最好。     

基于TM数据的植被覆盖度反演

本文首先对TM影像进行了几何纠正、辐射校正、大气校正;然后根据混合像元的结构特征,利用TM数据从植被指数(NDVI)中采用“等密度模型”和“非密度模型”提取了宜昌南部地区的植被覆盖度。在用“非密度模型”反演植被覆盖度的过程中,叶面积指数(LAI)是一个必要的参数,本文提出了一种改进的借助可见光波段和近红外波段反射值来提取叶面积指数(LAI)的方法。通过和MODIS数据反演结果比较表明:“非密度模型”的估算精度要高于“等密度模型”;利用“等密度模型”和“非密度模型”反演植被覆盖度是可行。

20世纪80年代以来东亚飞蝗在中国再度猖獗,及时、准确地监测东亚飞蝗的危害程度,对于东亚飞蝗的有效防治有重要意义。本研究以河北省黄骅市为研究区,利用地面高光谱数据,分析和比较了正常生长芦苇和受蝗虫危害芦苇的冠层反射光谱和高光谱特征参数的差异,并建立了高光谱特征参数与芦苇叶面积指数（LAI）的关系模型。结果表明,其中的虫害光谱指数（DSI）最适用于反映研究区芦苇受蝗虫危害的程度。在此基础上,利用DSI对研究区蝗虫的危害程度进行了划分,即：DSI〉62.856未受危害;41.254≤DSI≤59.496轻度危害;DSI〈41.254严重危害。     

Evaluation of potential crop productivity based on remote sensing and agro-ecological zones around the world

Human diets strongly rely on wheat, maize, rice and soybean; research on the potential crop productivity of these four main crops could provide the basis for increasing global crop yields. The evaluation model of realistic potential crop productivity based on remote sensing and agro-ecological zones was proposed in this study to provide reliable reference data for world food security. The statistical data on these four main crops yields were obtained from the FAO. The model was used to investigate the potential production of four staple crops in the world. The distributions of the realistic potential productivity of four staple crops (winter wheat, maize, rice and soybean) were produced. In the main producing countries of the four staple crops, statistical analysis was conducted on the realistic potential productivity (RPP) of the four staple crops, the highest productivity (HP) during the period 1983–2011 and the gap between RPP and HP.     

Mapping forest leaf area index using reflectance and textural information derived from WorldView-2 imagery in a mixed natural forest area in Florida,US

The leaf area index (LAI) of plant canopies is an important structural parameter that controls energy, water, and gas exchanges of plant ecosystems. Remote sensing techniques may offer an alternative for measuring and mapping forest LAI at a landscape scale. Given the characteristics of high spatial/spectral resolution of the WorldView-2 (WV2) sensor, it is of significance that the textural information extracted from WV2 multispectral (MS) bands will be first time used in estimating and mapping forest LAI. In this study, LAI mapping accuracies would be compared from (a) spatial resolutions between 2-m WV2 MS data and 30-m Landsat TM imagery, (b) the nature of variables between spectrum-based features and texture-based features, and (c) sensors between TM and WV2. Therefore spectral/textural features (SFs) were first selected and tested; then a canonical correlation analysis was performed with different data sets of SFs and LAI measurement; and finally linear regression models were used to predict and map forest LAI with canonical variables calculated from image data. The experimental results demonstrate that for estimating and mapping forest LAI, (i) using high resolution data (WV2) is better than using relatively low resolution data (TM); (ii) extracted from the same WV2 data, texture-based features have higher capability than that of spectrum-based features; (iii) a combination of spectrum-based features with texture-based features could lead to even higher accuracy of mapping forest LAI than their either one separately; and (iv) WV2 sensor outperforms TM sensor significantly. However, we need to address the possible overfitting phenomenon that might be brought in by using more input variables to develop models. In addition, the experimental results also indicate that the red-edge band in WV2 was the worst on estimating LAI among WV2 MS bands and the WV2 MS bands in the visible range had a much higher correlation with ground measured LAI than that red-edge and NIR bands did.

Thermal Anomalies and Earthquakes： Evidence from Wenchuan, China

Earthquake prediction is a difficult problem in Earth sciences.Unsuccessful predictions one after another urged people to explore more synthetic and comprehensive methods for earthquake prediction.The Lithosphere-Atmosphere-Ionosphere(LAI)coupling theory pays great attention to the processes taking place within the near ground layer of atmosphere.It has achieved great results recently,and can enlighten us about the nature of an earthquake's precursor.Based on the NCEP reanalysis dataset,this paper attempts to track the anomalies of the surface's upward long wave radiation flux(ULWRF),the temperature at the depth of 10cm～20cm below ground surface layer(BGL)and the air temperature at 2 meters above ground surface(AIR)around the time of the strong Wenchuan earthquake.Thermal anomalies were observed before and after May 12,2008,the time of the Wenchuan earthquake.Perhaps the thermal anomaly that occurred prior to the earthquake can be taken as indicators of the earthquake,but in view of the complexity of the earthquake phenomena,using thermal anomaly as a precursor should be done with caution.
