Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of ground-based remote sensing technology, and in particular to a method and apparatus for the direct assimilation of ground-based microwave radiometer data. Background Technology
[0002] Atmospheric profiles refer to the distribution data of oxygen, water vapor, and other trace gases in the atmosphere at different altitudes. Atmospheric temperature and humidity profiles are important physical quantities of the Earth system and crucial parameters in numerical weather prediction models. Providing high-precision temperature and humidity profiles as initial fields to numerical weather prediction models can significantly improve the accuracy of numerical forecasts. Currently, atmospheric temperature and humidity profile data are often acquired by deploying weather balloons. While weather balloon data offers high accuracy, the detection cost is high, and the temporal resolution is low, typically only once or twice a day, thus failing to capture information on the diurnal variation of temperature and humidity profiles. In addition, satellite-borne instrument observations also contain atmospheric temperature and humidity profile information. However, satellite observations are often contaminated by surface data, making it impossible to accurately obtain near-surface atmospheric temperature and humidity.
[0003] Ground-based microwave radiometers offer an alternative to overcome the limitations of radiosonde and satellite detection. Ground-based microwave radiometer data are less affected by the Earth's surface and have high temporal resolution, providing minute-level atmospheric data. Therefore, applying ground-based microwave radiometer data to data assimilation is of great significance for improving the accuracy of numerical model forecasts.
[0004] However, current technologies for assimilating ground-based microwave radiometer (GBM) data primarily employ indirect assimilation. The main principle involves establishing a connection between GBM observations and atmospheric temperature and humidity at different layers through fitting or neural networks, thereby retrieving atmospheric temperature and humidity profiles from the GBM observations. Finally, these retrieved profiles are used as observational data and coupled into the numerical weather prediction (NMM) model assimilation system for data assimilation. Indirect assimilation has several drawbacks: First, its effectiveness depends heavily on the accuracy of the inversion algorithm. Improving NMM forecasting performance requires a more precise atmospheric temperature and humidity inversion algorithm. Second, in indirect assimilation, the NMM background field is used as the initial field in both the inversion and assimilation algorithms, leading to signal reuse and impacting assimilation efficiency. Furthermore, GBM data contains not only atmospheric temperature and humidity signals but also other atmospheric information (such as air pressure and gas concentration), making it difficult for indirect assimilation to extract all the information contained in the observations.
[0005] Given these drawbacks of indirect assimilation schemes, operational satellite observation data assimilation systems internationally have adopted direct assimilation. The main principle of direct assimilation is to combine the model background field covariance matrix, observation operators, and observation operator error matrices, and adjust the model background field through variational iteration under error convergence conditions to obtain the model analysis field. Compared to indirect assimilation, direct assimilation allows for a more physically continuous adjustment of the model background field, while avoiding errors in inversion products and the problem of reusing model background field information. However, for ground-based microwave radiometer data, due to the lack of observation operators, indirect assimilation has been used. Summary of the Invention

[0058] like Figure 1 As shown, this invention provides a method for the direct assimilation of ground-based microwave radiometer data, used to achieve the direct assimilation of ground-based microwave radiometer data in numerical weather prediction models. The method for the direct assimilation of ground-based microwave radiometer data includes:

[0078] 501: Acquire cloud images generated by the all-sky imager, wherein the all-sky imager and the ground-based microwave radiometer are installed at the same site;
[0079] 502: Cloud scene recognition is performed using cloud images to obtain cloud scene recognition results.
[0080] In specific implementations, there are multiple implementation schemes for establishing the background field covariance matrix and the observation error matrix. For example, step 104: establishing the background field covariance matrix and the observation error matrix based on the cloud scene recognition results, the numerical weather prediction model background field, and the observation operator can include:

[0085] 702: Calculate the observation error in real time based on the simulated brightness temperature values of each channel of the ground-based microwave radiometer and the observed values of each channel of the ground-based microwave radiometer;
[0086] 703: Correct the observation error for deviation to obtain the observation error matrix, which satisfies a normal distribution.
[0087] In practice, there are multiple implementation schemes for determining the numerical weather prediction model analysis field. For example, step 105: determining the numerical weather prediction model analysis field based on the background field covariance matrix, observation error matrix, all-weather observation operator, and the tangent linear adjoint model of the all-weather observation operator can specifically include:
[0088] 801: Determine the derivatives of the simulated brightness temperature values of each channel of the ground-based microwave radiometer with respect to atmospheric and cloud parameters;

[0090] In specific implementation, step 101: establishing an all-weather observation operator for ground-based microwave radiometer observation data, and step 102: establishing a tangent linear adjoint model for the all-weather observation operator for ground-based microwave radiometer observation data, refer to establishing a fast radiative transfer model and its tangent linear adjoint module for the ground-based microwave radiometer. This fast radiative transfer model uses the background field of the numerical weather prediction model as input parameters to simulate the brightness temperature observations of each channel of the ground-based microwave radiometer. This model can include rapid calculation of gas absorption transmittance, calculation of cloud optical properties, and solving of the radiative transfer equation.
[0091] Furthermore, the background field of the numerical forecast model is global gridded atmospheric data simulated by the numerical weather prediction model.
[0092] Furthermore, the rapid calculation of gas absorption transmittance specifically involves constructing predictive factors using atmospheric variables (such as temperature, water vapor, and air pressure), and fitting the gas absorption transmittance of the accurate model based on the predictive factors, thereby enabling the rapid calculation of transmittance using atmospheric variables.
[0093] Furthermore, the calculation of cloud optical properties specifically involves using particle scattering algorithms (such as Mie scattering, discrete dipole, or T-matrix algorithms) to calculate the cloud scattering effect from cloud water content and the effective radius of cloud particles.
[0094] Furthermore, the radiative transfer equation can be solved based on the known atmospheric transmittance and cloud optical properties, thereby calculating the brightness temperature at the observation angle of the ground-based microwave radiometer.
[0095] In practice, under clear-sky conditions, the core of the fast radiative transfer mode is based on the following radiative transfer equation:
[0096]
[0097] Where I(τ,μ) is the emissivity, i.e., the variable to be determined; τ is the optical thickness; μ is the zenith angle cosine; and B(T) is the atmospheric Planck function, which can be determined based on the atmospheric temperature and the instrument channel frequency.
[0098] By solving formula (1), the emissivity I observed by the ground-based microwave radiometer can be obtained. sim for:
[0099]
[0100] Where Γ 0,i Γ is the transmittance from the top of the atmosphere to the i-th layer of the atmosphere, where Γ 0,0 =1; N represents the number of atmospheric layers used in the radiative transfer mode; T i T represents the atmospheric temperature of the i-th layer; cosmicThis represents the incident temperature of the cosmic background.
[0101] According to formula (2), given the atmospheric temperature profile and the incident temperature of the cosmic background, it is only necessary to calculate the transmittance Γ. 0,i This allows us to simulate the emissivity observed by a ground-based microwave radiometer.
[0102] In the newly established fast radiative transfer mode, to quickly calculate transmittance, we assume:
[0103]
[0104] Where X k,i (P,T,q,μ) are predictors, which are polynomials constructed using atmospheric pressure P, atmospheric temperature T, atmospheric humidity q, and observed zenith angle θ; a k These are regression coefficients, which can be obtained by regressing the results of the line-by-line integration model using formula (3). The line-by-line integration model uses the Liebe 89 model. In the microwave band, we consider the transmittance of both dry air and water vapor, and use different combinations of predictor factors for fitting. Specific combinations of predictor factors are shown in Table 1.

[0107] In the presence of clouds, the radiative transfer equation is relatively complex, and its form is as follows:
[0108]
[0109] Based on clear-sky radiative transfer, the effect of cloud scattering also needs to be considered. Therefore, the single-scattering albedo ω and the scattering phase function P(μ,μ′) are added to the equation. Given the cloud water content and the effective radius of cloud particles, these parameters can be calculated using particle scattering algorithms (such as the Mie scattering algorithm, discrete dipole algorithm, and T-matrix algorithm). Equation (4) is a differential-integral equation, which is difficult to solve analytically. Currently, there are many numerical solutions for approximate solutions. Taking the discrete ordinate method as an example, the integral term in equation (4) can be discretized:
[0110]
[0111] Finally, equation (4) is transformed into a set of linear equations, thereby solving the atmospheric radiation transfer equation.
[0112] In practice, after establishing the all-weather observation operator for ground-based microwave radiometer observation data, it is also necessary to include the step of establishing the tangent linear adjoint module of the all-weather observation operator. This step is to differentiate the calculation process of the above-mentioned all-weather observation operator with respect to parameters such as atmospheric temperature, humidity, air pressure, and cloud water content, and finally calculate the derivative of the simulated brightness temperature value of each channel with respect to atmospheric parameters such as atmospheric temperature, humidity, and air pressure.
[0113] For the fast radiative transfer mode of the ground-based microwave radiometer, this mode uses the background field of the numerical model as input parameters to directly simulate the brightness temperature observation values of each channel of the ground-based microwave radiometer, and calculates the derivatives of the simulated brightness temperature with respect to atmospheric parameters such as atmospheric temperature, humidity, and air pressure, providing technical support for the direct assimilation of ground-based microwave radiometer observations by the numerical prediction model.
[0114] In practice, step 103 primarily involves generating static atmospheric background field data. Specifically, this involves establishing a sufficiently representative background field covariance matrix using global atmospheric products from numerical weather prediction models. Simultaneously, the observation error matrices for each channel of the ground-based microwave radiometer are calculated using global atmospheric products from numerical weather prediction models and observational data. The background field covariance matrix and the observation error matrix can serve as static input data for variational assimilation.
[0115] Specifically, atmospheric product data from five consecutive years of numerical weather prediction models can be selected to ensure representativeness.
[0116] Specifically, the background field covariance matrix can be a two-dimensional covariance matrix calculated from the profile set of global atmospheric products in numerical weather prediction models, representing different variables at different vertical layers. These different variables include atmospheric temperature, humidity, and pressure profiles.
[0117] Specifically, the observation error matrix can be the standard deviation of the difference between the brightness temperature simulated in the fast radiative transfer mode and the brightness temperature observed by the ground-based microwave radiometer.
[0118] In practice, the deviation correction of observation errors mentioned in step 703 above refers to the correction of systematic errors in the observation. Specifically, this can be achieved by fitting the observed brightness temperature value with the simulated brightness temperature according to the scanning angle of the ground-based microwave radiometer, or by performing deviation correction through variational iteration.
[0119] The aforementioned fitting process refers to linearly fitting the simulated brightness temperature to the observed brightness temperature using the least squares method and saving the results as offline linear fitting coefficients. During assimilation, the observed brightness temperature values are substituted into the fitted linear equation along the scanning angle of the ground-based microwave radiometer to correct for bias.
[0120] Specifically, based on weather condition information extracted from the atmospheric background field, the observation system bias b(β,x) for each observation frequency is calculated, and the brightness temperature observations for each frequency are corrected based on the system bias. Here, x is the air mass factor calculated based on the background field, and β is the correction coefficient corresponding to each air mass factor. The final corrected brightness temperature y is compared with the actual observed brightness temperature y. o The relationship can be represented as:
[0121]
[0122] Where N p The number of air mass factors is represented by the number of factors. Commonly used air mass correction factors include tropospheric atmospheric thickness, stratospheric atmospheric thickness, and surface temperature. The air mass factor correction coefficient β can be obtained by fitting the observed brightness temperature with the simulated brightness temperature, or by using variational iteration to correct the bias.
[0123] In practice, based on the background field covariance matrix, observation error matrix, observation operator tangent linear adjoint module, and brightness temperatures of each channel after bias correction, variational iteration is performed on the background field of the numerical weather prediction model to minimize the bias-corrected observation error, ultimately obtaining the analysis field X of the numerical weather prediction model. a Specifically, taking four-dimensional variational as an example, the objective functional of its variational assimilation is defined as follows:
[0124]
[0125] The first item on the right, J B It is the background field item, X a and X b Let J represent the analysis field and the background field, respectively. B is the background field error covariance matrix. The second term on the right-hand side, J... O These are observation terms, where the subscript i represents different observation times, and M... 0→i Let H represent the forecast model integral from the initial time to the observation time, H represent the observation operator, R represent the observation error matrix, and y represent the brightness temperature observation value after bias correction.
