TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of digital soil mapping, in particular to a three-dimensional mapping method for degraded farmland soil organic matter by fusing remote sensing, near-ground sensing and historical data. BACKGROUND
[0002] Black soil resources are globally scarce, accounting for only 7% of the global arable land area, but carrying nearly 25% of the food production capacity. The thickness and organic matter content of the black soil layer directly determine the level of soil health. However, in the past 50 years, continuous high-intensity cultivation has led to an average annual loss of 0.3-1 cm of the black soil layer, and in some areas, the thickness is already less than 20 cm. At the same time, the surface SOM content has decreased sharply from 8-10% at the beginning of reclamation to the current 2-3%, and the deep layer organic matter has also decreased synchronously, seriously threatening the strategic role of the "ballast" of national food security. Soil organic matter (SOM) as one of the key properties of soil plays a key role in global carbon cycle, and its content and spatial distribution deeply affect the cation exchange capacity, water holding capacity, formation and stability of soil aggregates, and the structure and activity of soil microbial community. Therefore, accurately quantifying the three-dimensional spatial distribution characteristics of SOM is the scientific basis for evaluating regional soil carbon storage and understanding the mechanism of carbon cycle.
[0003] With the development of technology, digital soil mapping (DSM) has become a high-precision and high-quality means of acquiring soil spatial information, and has been widely applied in practical research. However, existing DSM methods mostly focus on surface or shallow soil, and lack systematic characterization and high-precision modeling of continuous variation on the vertical profile scale of soil. On the other hand, traditional two-dimensional spatial models face challenges in extending to three dimensions, and it is difficult to effectively capture the complex spatial dependence structure of deep soil. The existing INLA-SPDE three-dimensional modeling method still has fundamental limitations, usually using a unified set of environmental covariates to model SOM at all depth levels, without fully considering the differences in environmental driving mechanisms corresponding to different depth layers of soil, limiting the prediction accuracy and adaptability of the model in the vertical dimension.
[0004] Therefore, how to break through the bottleneck of existing methods in simulating the vertical variation of soil organic matter and realize high-precision and high-efficiency three-dimensional mapping of regional-scale SOM has important theoretical significance and practical value for improving the scientificity of soil carbon storage evaluation and strengthening the cognition of carbon sink function in black soil areas.

[0039] The application provides a three-dimensional mapping method for degraded farmland soil organic matter by fusing remote sensing, near-ground sensing and historical data, which significantly improves the efficiency and accuracy of deep soil organic matter mapping in black soil areas. First, traditional regional-scale deep soil organic matter three-dimensional mapping requires a large amount of soil profile excavation, and obtaining samples at different depths consumes a lot of manpower and resources, especially in large-scale black soil areas, which is extremely costly and difficult to apply on a large scale. The method proposes a modeling strategy that fuses “limited new sampling points” and “wide-range shallow historical data”, which greatly simplifies manpower and resources. The historical data provide a broad background of organic matter distribution, and the new sampling points provide key profile deep information. This design realizes high-precision three-dimensional prediction with minimal new sampling investment, significantly reducing data collection costs. Second, the application realizes a double breakthrough in accuracy and efficiency. In the INLA-SPDE three-dimensional model method, the soil profile depth is introduced into the SPDE model, which is analogous to the construction of a Gaussian random field for time series, effectively expressing the spatial heterogeneity of soil organic matter in the vertical dimension. At the same time, the near-ground visible near-infrared spectrum data are fused as key covariates to capture the vertical changes of organic matter, which significantly improves the response ability of the model to changes in deep soil properties. By integrating historical data and new sampling points for modeling, more extensive spatial coverage and background information are provided, which enhances the accurate expression of the model to regional spatial variation and reduces the prediction random error. The method can also accurately quantify the uncertainty of the prediction results, providing reliable scientific support for regional carbon storage assessment and other practical applications.

In the embodiment, as shown in the figure, Figure 2 The step A1 specifically includes the following steps:
[0051] A11, at each sampling point in the study area, a soil profile of 0-100cm is collected using a soil profile sampler and is closed in a PVC pipe. The PVC pipe is closed with a plastic film outside to prevent water loss and pollution. As for the layout of the sampling points, environmental factors need to be considered comprehensively in the study area, and the conditional Latin hypercube method is used. In an exemplary embodiment, the setting of the sampling points comprehensively considers soil types, soil texture, topography, land use, rainfall and temperature and the like in the whole region of Lishu County, and the conditional Latin hypercube method is used to set 73 sampling points in Lishu County by referring to the sampling positions of the second national soil survey.

For the collection of visible near-infrared reflectance spectrum data, a strict calibration and standardization process needs to be followed, and for the 73 one-meter soil profile samples, the PVC pipe is first cut longitudinally in half in the embodiment, and the profile is evenly divided into 10 equal parts of 10cm long along the side of the PVC pipe using a marker pen, and then the visible near-infrared reflectance spectrum measurement is completed using the complete profile. The standard reference white plate is used for spectrometer calibration before and after each measurement, and the optical fiber probe is ensured to be in close contact with the surface of the soil sample during measurement. The average spectrum is taken as the final spectrum of the sample after 10 measurements at each point, so as to ensure the consistency and accuracy of the data.
[0053] Before the visible near infrared reflectance spectroscopy measurement, the soil profile should be ensured to be flat and clean, and the plant roots and other foreign matters should be removed. The position without gap on the profile surface is selected for the collection of the visible near infrared (Vis-NIR) spectrum. The Quality Spec Trek portable spectrometer is used to measure the Vis-NIR spectrum, and the spectral range is 350-2500 nm.
[0054] A13, the other half of each layer of the soil profile is divided and treated, and the potassium dichromate volumetric method-external heating method is used to measure the soil organic matter content; the soil organic matter content of each layer of each soil profile sample and the near-sensing visible near infrared reflectance spectrum data constitute a new collected soil sample data set. In an exemplary embodiment, the other half of the data of 73 one-meter soil profiles is divided and treated, and the soil samples of different soil layers (0-10, 10-20, 20-30, 30-40, 40-50, 50-60, 60-70, 70-80, 80-90, 90-100 cm) are obtained. After drying, grinding and passing through a 2mm sieve, the soil organic matter content is measured by the potassium dichromate volumetric method-external heating method, and then multiplied by the conversion factor of the Van Bemmelen factor (1.724) to obtain the soil organic matter content.
[0055] A2, the soil organic matter content and the near-sensing visible near infrared reflectance spectrum data in the new collected soil sample data set are pretreated and correlation analysis is performed to screen out the near-sensing visible near infrared reflectance spectrum characteristic wave band with the highest correlation with the soil organic matter content. In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 3 , step A2 includes the following steps:

[0060] The historical collected soil sample data set includes soil organic matter content collected at a plurality of historical sampling points in the study area. The conversion of the historical collected soil sample data set includes integrating the historical collected soil organic matter content and the newly collected soil organic matter content into unified depth layers using an equal-area spline function.
[0061] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 Step A3 specifically includes the following steps:
[0062] A31, obtaining a historical collected soil sample data set. Specifically, in this embodiment, the sampling depth of the historical soil sample data set in the degraded black soil area of Lishu County is 0-20 cm. Before integration, the historical soil organic matter data and the newly collected soil organic matter data need to be integrated into unified depth layers using an equal-area spline function.
[0063] A32, integrating the historical collected soil organic matter content and the newly collected soil organic matter content into unified depth layers using an equal-area spline function. Specifically, first, the newly collected 10 cm depth layer organic matter data is converted into unified 5 cm depth layer data. Based on the conversion result, a quantitative regression model of 0-20 cm depth layer organic matter content and original 0-10 cm and 10-20 cm depth layer content is established, and model verification is performed using significance analysis. After meeting the prediction accuracy requirement (P<0.001), the regression model is used to complete the work of predicting the corresponding 0-10 cm depth layer organic matter content using the historical data 0-20 cm soil organic matter content. After conversion, a total of 319 historical soil organic matter data of 0-10 cm layer is collected.
[0064] A33, merging the data in the converted historical collected soil sample data set and the data in the newly collected soil sample data set to obtain an overall soil sample data set.
[0065] A4, collecting topographic data, soil type data, vegetation data and remote sensing meteorological data in the study area, and standardizing and preprocessing the topographic data, soil type data, vegetation data and remote sensing meteorological data. Specifically, the standardization preprocessing of the topographic data (elevation, slope direction), soil type data (soil clay content), vegetation data (NDVI) and remote sensing meteorological data (annual average rainfall, temperature) respectively includes spatial resampling, spatial cropping according to the boundary of the study area, numerical standardization and collinearity check; and interpolation is performed according to the near-infrared visible reflectance spectral characteristic bands in the newly collected soil sample data set to obtain a near-infrared visible reflectance spectral characteristic band distribution map of the study area. Specifically, the near-infrared visible reflectance spectral data obtained from the 73 newly collected sample points are interpolated using IDW to obtain a distribution map of the visible near-infrared reflectance spectrum in Lishu County.

[0067] In an exemplary embodiment, according to the soil organic matter content of the surface layer (0-10 cm), the fixed profile is divided according to a preset ratio of 4:1, and the modeling set and the verification set are established according to the numbering to complete the classification of all profile layer sample data. In this embodiment, the collected soil profile samples are numbered, and are numbered 1-73, respectively. Each soil profile sample is divided into 10 layers, and the numbers of the 10 layers are the numbers of the profile samples, for example, the soil profile sample numbered 1 can be divided into 10 layers, and the numbers of the 10 layer samples are all 1. According to the calibrated modeling set and verification set numbers, the classification of all different layer sample data is completed. In this way, the data set division of all soil samples according to the fixed profile is completed.
[0068] A6、For each sampling point, the semi-variogram function is calculated according to the latitude and longitude of the sampling point and the soil organic matter content of each layer, the range value of the soil organic matter content of each layer is obtained, and the MESH grid parameters are set according to the maximum range. Specifically, the MESH grid parameters include offset, cutoff distance, and maximum triangle edge length. In step A6, "setting the MESH grid parameters according to the maximum range" specifically includes: setting the offset according to 1 / 3, 2 / 5, and 3 / 5 of the maximum range; setting the maximum triangle edge length according to 1 / 10, 1 / 5, and 3 / 20 of the maximum range; and setting the cutoff distance according to 1 / 100, 1 / 200, 1 / 300, and 1 / 600 of the maximum range.
[0069] After adjusting the three parameters to set the MESH grid, the triangular grid parameters are screened according to the deviance information criterion (DIC) and the root mean square error (RMSE). The smaller the DIC and RMSE values, the higher the fitting degree of the model, and the optimal model triangular grid parameters. The specific formulas of DIC and RMSE are as follows:
[0070] DIC = D bar + pD.
[0071] where D bar is the goodness of fit at the posterior mean, and pD is the effective number of parameters of the model.
[0072]
[0073] where n is the total number of samples, is the mean of the observed values, Y a is the observed values.
[0074] The RMSE and DIC of the triangular grid parameters under various combinations are compared, as shown in Table 1.

Specifically, the INLA-SPDE three-dimensional model constructed by integrating the fixed effect variable, the spatial random effect term based on the SPDE Gaussian random field model and the depth hierarchical model includes fixed effects, random effects, white noise and intercept, as shown in the following formula:
[0081] y(s i ,d)=β0+z1(s i ,d)β1+z2(s i ,d)β2+…+z h (s i ,d)β n +ξ(s i ,d)+ε(s i ,d)。

This method constructs a spatial Gaussian random field based on the Matérn covariance function, and ξ(s i ,d) represents the part of the variogram function in depth simulated by an autoregressive model based on the spatial variability model, which is expressed as follows:
[0084]
[0085] where ξ(s i ,d-1) is the soil organic matter process at layer d-1, a is the autocorrelation coefficient; ω(s i ,d) is the measurement error with mean 0 and variance , and satisfies the characteristics of the spatiotemporal covariance function. Assuming that the depth and space are stationary and the spatial process follows autoregressive dynamics in time, the covariance function can be expressed as the following function:

[0087] where C(h) is determined by the Euclidean distance between two points, h is the Euclidean distance, x(i, j) is a random variable at the coordinates and depth, and d represents the depth dimension.
[0088] For the above prediction, the root mean square error (RMSE), the determination coefficient (R 2 ) and the relative analysis error (RPD) are selected as indicators to evaluate the prediction accuracy of the model, wherein the greater the values of RPD and R 2 , the better the prediction effect of the model, and the smaller the RMSE, the better the prediction effect of the model and the stronger the prediction ability.
[0089] The application discloses a three-dimensional mapping method for degraded farmland soil organic matter by fusing remote sensing, near-ground sensing and historical data, which shows the influence of different variable combinations on the prediction accuracy of the soil organic matter model, and eight variable combination schemes are used, including no variable, only near-ground Vis-NIR spectrum, only remote sensing, remote sensing combined with near-ground Vis-NIR spectrum and adding historical data, and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0091]
[0092] The application evaluates the prediction performance of the INLA-SPDE three-dimensional model under different variable combinations, and clearly reveals the optimization mechanism of multi-source data cooperation for three-dimensional mapping of soil organic matter. As shown in Table 2, when no environmental variable is introduced, the model RMSE reaches 5.37 g / kg, R 2 is only 0.37, and RPD is 1.26; when only historical data is added and no environmental variable is introduced, the error is reduced to 4.56 g / kg, R 2 is increased to 0.5, and RPD is increased to 0.5 to reach the prediction level. When only remote sensing data is integrated, the RMSE is 5.09 g / kg, and after adding historical data, the RMSE result is increased to 4.52 g / kg, and only using ground Vis-NIR spectrum data can significantly improve the prediction accuracy (RMSE = 4.36 g / kg, R 2 = 0.58, RPD = 1.55), which proves the core value of capturing the inherent properties of soil. By fusing remote sensing and spectrum data, the model performance is further improved (RMSE = 4.16 g / kg), which shows that the combination of near sensing and remote sensing can effectively supplement the horizontal spatial heterogeneity information. Finally, under the full-factor scheme of integrating remote sensing, ground spectrum and historical data, the RMSE is further reduced to 4.03 g / kg, which is 25% lower than the prediction error of the initial model, R 2The result is 0.72, and the RPD is 1.89, which has reached the level of an excellent model, and the R 2 The increase of 95%, the increase of RPD of 50%, and the synchronous increase of the three indicators prove that Vis-NIR spectrum is the key driver for deep soil modeling, remote sensing data enhances spatial representation capability, and historical sampling points reduce model random error through longitudinal calibration. This method not only guarantees accuracy, but also proves the effectiveness of proximal sensing data, remote sensing data, and historical data, providing technical support for efficient monitoring of carbon storage in large-scale black soil areas.
[0093] A9, the spatial coordinates of the overall soil sample data set points, and the pre-processed terrain data, soil type data, vegetation data, remote sensing meteorological data and selected proximal visible near-infrared reflectance spectral characteristic bands are used as input variables, and the INLA-SPDE three-dimensional model is used for three-dimensional mapping of soil organic matter. In this embodiment, step A9 is specifically: the spatial coordinates of the overall soil sample data set points, and the pre-processed terrain data, soil type data, vegetation data, remote sensing meteorological data and selected proximal visible near-infrared reflectance spectral characteristic bands are used as input variables, and the INLA-SPDE three-dimensional model is used for three-dimensional mapping of soil organic matter, and the posterior distribution estimate value of soil organic matter is obtained; the posterior distribution estimate value includes the posterior distribution mean and the posterior distribution standard deviation value, which is used to reflect the spatial distribution characteristics of the predicted value and its uncertainty.
[0094] In an exemplary embodiment, the global three-dimensional coordinate grid and the multi-source variable matrix with annual precipitation (AMP), annual mean temperature (AMT), digital elevation model (DEM), slope aspect (Aspect), soil clay content (Clay), normalized vegetation index (NDVI), ground Vis-NIR spectrum at 600 nm, and ground Vis-NIR spectrum at 790 nm as covariates are input into the trained INLA-SPDE three-dimensional model for running, the model outputs the mean and standard deviation of the predicted soil organic matter content of each grid point, and stores it as a three-dimensional mapping result in the form of a grid, and finally completes the organic matter digital soil mapping and uncertainty spatial distribution map of 10 different depths (0-10, 10-20, 20-30, 30-40, 40-50, 50-60, 60-70, 70-80, 80-90, 90-100 cm) by stacking, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 .
[0095] The method significantly optimizes the three-dimensional mapping efficiency of deep soil organic matter in black soil areas. First, traditional regional-scale deep soil organic matter three-dimensional mapping requires a large number of soil profile excavations, and obtaining samples at different depths consumes a lot of manpower and resources, especially in large-scale black soil areas, which is extremely costly and difficult to implement on a large scale. The method innovatively integrates "limited new sampling points" and "wide coverage of shallow historical data" to significantly reduce manpower and resources. The historical data serves as a spatial pattern constraint, and the spatial correlation modeling is used to assist in improving the regional background consistency. The new sampling points provide deep modeling anchors by collecting profile information. This design supports high-precision three-dimensional prediction with minimal new sampling investment.
[0096] Secondly, after deeply integrating the INLA-SPDE framework, the method uses ground Vis-NIR spectra as a key driver to capture the vertical variation of organic matter, and then uses spatial correlation modeling of historical data and new sampling points to assist in improving the regional background accuracy, effectively reducing the random error of prediction. Specifically, the historical data plays a spatial correlation role in the model, while the ground Vis-NIR spectrum is used as a deep specific environmental factor to fully capture the trend of the inherent property changes in deep soil. The fusion of the two types of data combined with the enhanced horizontal spatial heterogeneity representation of remote sensing data improves the accuracy of three-dimensional modeling. At the same time, the triangular mesh MESH improves the three-dimensional spatial correlation modeling capability, ensuring the continuity of soil types in the horizontal and vertical dimensions. The efficient Bayesian inference of the INLA algorithm significantly improves the calculation efficiency, supports fast complex model fitting and multivariate combination optimization screening, and accurately quantifies the uncertainty of the prediction results, providing reliable scientific support for regional carbon storage assessment and other applications.
[0097] The core advantage of the method is the integration of historical data and ground visible near-infrared (Vis-NIR) spectral data, which significantly improves the accuracy, efficiency and reliability of regional-scale soil organic matter three-dimensional mapping, and innovatively solves the key problem of vertical dimension modeling. The final output of the three-dimensional prediction map and the uncertainty evaluation map provides a scientific and reliable tool for organic matter dynamic monitoring and carbon storage assessment in black soil areas. The method realizes the unification of low-cost sampling and high-precision three-dimensional output through precise sampling strategy and deep coupling of multi-source data.
