TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of remote sensing, and particularly relates to a method for identifying algal blooms in inland lake and reservoir water bodies. BACKGROUND
[0002] Remote sensing technology has the characteristics of large range, periodicity and rapid real-time, and has become one of the most effective measures for monitoring the water quality of large lakes. When cyanobacterial blooms occur, green algal organisms gather on the surface of the water body, are easily affected by the tidal current and wind direction, extend in strips, and usually have a flocculent texture structure on the remote sensing image, which is significantly different from the surrounding lake surface. At the same time, the content of chlorophyll in the water body is significantly increased, so that the absorption peaks of the water body reflectance spectrum in the blue and red wave bands are more obvious, and the water body reflectance spectrum has a similar vegetation spectral curve characteristic of “steep slope effect” in the near-infrared wave band. The reflectance spectrum characteristics of the water body change, and the spectral characteristics of the cyanobacterial bloom coverage area are quite different from those of the non-algal water surface. The spectral characteristics of cyanobacteria can be accurately recorded by satellite detectors. Therefore, satellite remote sensing data can be used to monitor the spatial distribution information of cyanobacterial blooms.

[0027] The technical solutions provided by the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments, but they should not be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present application.
[0028] Example 1
[0029] The present embodiment discloses a method for identifying algal blooms in inland lake and reservoir water bodies. The method uses the difference between the floating algae index FAI (Floating Algae Index, formula (1)) and the water index EXPWI (EXP Water Index, formula (2)) to enhance the contrast between cyanobacteria water areas and non-cyanobacteria water areas. The method includes the following steps:
[0030] Pretreating the pre-acquired remote sensing reflectivity data to obtain a pretreatment result;
[0031] Constructing an improved floating algae index formula and calculating the improved floating algae index in combination with satellite remote sensing data processing software and the pretreatment result;
[0032] Inputting the numerical image of the improved floating algae index into EVNI, extracting the algae coverage range with 0 as the threshold value, and calculating to obtain the floating algae area;
[0033] The improved floating algae index is the difference between the floating algae index FAI and the water index EXPWI.
[0034] Specifically:
[0035] The pre-acquired remote sensing reflectivity data is pretreated by using meteorological data and Rayleigh scattering lookup table, specifically including: ① removing the sample points in the cloud coverage area by combining positioning data and satellite images; ② removing the algal bloom coverage sample points based on FAI >-0.004; ③ removing the sample points covered by solar flares based on the satellite image fast view; ④ matching the data set using a time window of (±3h) in combination with the sampling time and satellite overpass time data.
[0036] Before constructing the improved phytoplankton index formula, the following steps are included:
[0037] The pre-processed result is subjected to the operation of removing water vapor absorption, ozone absorption and Rayleigh scattering.
[0038] The obtaining step of the phytoplankton index FAI includes:
[0039] S1. The reflectivity of the pre-processed result after Rayleigh correction is calculated by using the near-infrared light reflectivity formula ;
[0040] S2. The satellite remote sensing data processing software is used to remove the image areas covered by clouds and land in the pre-processed result, and extract the lake water body;
[0041] S3. The phytoplankton index FAI is calculated according to the phytoplankton index FAI formula and the satellite remote sensing data processing software.
[0042] Formula (1);
[0043] Wherein and are calculated by using the following formulas respectively:
[0044] The expression of the near-infrared light reflectivity formula is: Formula (1-1);
[0045] Formula (1-2);
[0046] Wherein, is the near-infrared light reflectivity; is the radiance of the sensor after radiation calibration, is the solar irradiance vertically incident outside the atmosphere, which is is the solar zenith angle, is the reflectivity of Rayleigh scattering estimated by using the 6S model.
[0047] It should be noted that the FAI is not easily affected by environmental changes such as aerosol type and thickness, solar elevation angle and flare, can more effectively penetrate thin clouds, and monitor cyanobacterial blooms; the EXPWI can increase the reflectivity of water body in the short-wave infrared and suppress the reflectivity of non-water body in the red wave band, and can effectively reduce the interference of clouds on the extraction of water body information (Formula (2)). Compared with single FAI or EXPWI, this method can increase the standard deviation of data, expand the value range of data, and increase the information amount. The cyanobacterial information is enhanced, and the probability of identifying the area with small cyanobacterial density is increased.
[0048] FAI and EXPWI have similar value range. The new image is obtained by subtracting the two in ENVI using band operation. When the result of [FAI-EXPWI] is positive, it indicates that the water body is covered by blue-green algae bloom. The threshold value is set to 0, and the spatial distribution information of blue-green algae bloom in Taihu Lake can be extracted. In the images of different periods, the value range and standard deviation of [FAI-EXPWI] are larger than those of FAI (Table 1), which indicates that the information of [FAI-EXPWI] is more abundant. This method can effectively identify the spatial distribution of blue-green algae bloom on medium and high spatial resolution images (such as Landsat TM, IRS P6 LISS-3). After being applied to the algae bloom monitoring of Taihu Lake, the index shows more abundant details in texture and higher accuracy in area (Figure 2). Among them, Figure 2 improved floating algae method (FAI-EXPWI) extracts blue-green algae bloom in Taihu Lake: (a) Landsat TM 30m; (b) EOS MODIS 500m; (c) IRS P6 LISS-3 23.5m; (d) EOS MODIS 500m.

[0052] Formula (2);
[0053] wherein, is a short-wave infrared band, which corresponds to band 5 in TM, LISS-3 and MODIS images. is a red light band, which corresponds to band 3 in TM and LISS-3 images, and corresponds to band 1 in MODIS images.
[0054] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, without departing from the principles of the present application, several improvements and refinements can be made, which should also be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
