Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of mid-latitude forest SIF reconstruction, specifically to a method for mid-latitude forest SIF reconstruction based on Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) and Land Surface Temperature (LST). Background Technology
[0002] Forests, as major terrestrial carbon-scavenging ecosystems, play a crucial role in regulating the global carbon cycle. SIF (Spectral Intensity Reflectance) is considered the medium of vegetation photosynthesis and helps assess its photosynthetic intensity and carbon-scavenging capacity. Some satellites provide SIF data retrieved from vegetation spectral reflectance. However, SIF retrieved directly from satellite observations suffers from low spatial resolution, discontinuities, or low temporal resolution.
[0003] Traditional SIF reconstruction models have improved in terms of low spatial resolution, continuity, or low temporal resolution, but they still face the following challenges. Traditional models often rely on multiple predictors, such as the vegetation index NDVI, enhanced vegetation index EVI, land surface temperature LST, vapor pressure deficit VPD, and photosynthetically active radiation PAR. However, some predictors (such as vapor pressure deficit VPD and photosynthetically active radiation PAR) suffer from low spatial resolution (the highest spatial resolution of publicly available vapor pressure deficit VPD data is currently only 0.5°), and there are no observations or public goods in certain specific regions. As a result, traditional models are only applicable to a small number of regions where all predictor datasets are available, and the reconstructed solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence data has low spatial resolution. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention aims to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a mid-latitude forest SIF reconstruction method based on EVI and LST, with the goal of significantly improving the efficiency and universality of SIF reconstruction, thereby enhancing the application value of SIF in regulating the global carbon cycle.

[0045] In this embodiment, addressing the problems of traditional models relying on numerous predictor factors and the low spatial resolution and difficulty in obtaining some predictor factors, a SIF reconstruction method based solely on the Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) and Land Surface Temperature (LST) as predictor factors is proposed, using mid-latitude forest regions as an example. This method compresses the number of predictor factors to two (EVI and LST). High-resolution satellite data for all predictor factors covers the globe (currently, publicly available EVI data has a spatial resolution of less than 10 meters, and global LST data has a resolution of 1 km), and all are freely available, improving the model's universality. Specifically, for example... Figure 1 As shown, the method is performed according to the following steps:
[0046] Step 1: Construct a pixel set of Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) and Land Surface Temperature (LST) for global forest regions;
[0047] Step 1.1 Determine the predictors;
[0048] According to light energy utilization efficiency (LUE), the sunlight-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) can be expressed as shown in equation (1):
[0049] SIF = fPAR × PAR × ε f (1)
[0050] In equation (1), PAR represents photosynthetically active radiation; fAPAR represents photosynthetically active radiation; ε f This represents the efficiency of using absorbed radiation during photosynthesis. Equation (1) indicates that SIF, PAR, fAPAR, and ε fThe correlation is directly proportional. Therefore, vegetation conditions, meteorological conditions, and land cover information are likely indispensable factors in predicting SIF. Considering which variables are more readily available, we prioritize using land surface temperature (LST) to characterize meteorological conditions and enhance the vegetation index (EVI) or normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) to characterize vegetation status. By analyzing the correlation between EVI, NDVI, and SIF, we found that EVI correlates more strongly with SIF than NDVI, thus identifying EVI and LST as predictors.

Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) and Land Surface Temperature (LST) raster data for global forest regions were acquired from January to December 2017.

[0062] Step 3: Construct a sunlight-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) dataset.

[0066] Step 4: Establish a prediction model for sunlight-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) in mid-latitude forests;
[0067] Step 4.1: Use equation (3) to obtain the sunlight-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) value of the reconstructed nth pixel sample.
