Currently, the main methods for identifying sea fog include: buoy or ship detection, and the spectral thresholding method. Buoy and ship detection methods are limited by their spatial and temporal scope; the spectral thresholding method relies on the unique spectral characteristics of clouds and fog, utilizing the fact that the reflectivity of clouds and fog in the visible light band is higher than that of the sea surface. However, it is prone to misidentifying stratus clouds and thin clouds as sea fog, resulting in relatively low accuracy in sea fog identification. Summary of the Invention

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0029] The technical solutions provided by the various embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of the daytime sea fog identification method of this application.

[0032] A method for identifying sea fog during the day includes the following steps:

[0033] Step 101: Extract albedo / brightness temperature, solar zenith angle data and cloud parameter data from the Himawari-8 satellite, and use the thresholding method to obtain the sea fog identification threshold;

[0034] Albedo at wavelengths of 0.51 μm, 0.64 μm, 0.86 μm, 1.6 μm, and 2.3 μm was extracted from the Himawari-8 satellite. Brightness temperature at wavelengths of 3.9 μm, 7.3 μm, 11.2 μm, and 12.4 μm was also extracted.

[0035] The extracted cloud parameters include cloud top height (CLTH), cloud optical thickness (CLOT), and cloud particle effective radius (CLER).

[0036] Step 102: Extract the sea fog identification threshold data to form the first threshold set, the second threshold set, the third threshold set, and the fourth threshold set.

[0037] The first threshold set is used to make an initial judgment on the data, distinguishing between suspected non-cloudy pixels and cloudy pixels. The second and third threshold sets are used to make a second judgment on the two results of the judgment made by the first threshold set, and the fourth threshold set is used to make a third judgment on the results of the second judgment. Therefore, different threshold combinations should be used for two adjacent judgments.

[0038] For example, the first threshold set differs from the second or third threshold set in at least one parameter. The parameters of the second and third threshold sets may be the same or different; no further limitation is made here. The second or third threshold set differs from the fourth threshold set in at least one parameter.

[0039] For example, the sea fog recognition threshold can be divided into four completely different parts, which are respectively placed into a first threshold set, a second threshold set, a third threshold set, and a fourth threshold set.

[0040] Step 103: Retain pixels with a solar zenith angle < 80° as daytime pixels, and discard other pixels as nighttime pixels.

[0041] The method described in this application is used for daytime sea fog identification, but it cannot identify sea fog at night. Therefore, it is necessary to first remove nighttime pixels and use the solar zenith angle (SOZ) < 80° as a daytime constraint to remove invalid nighttime values.

[0042] Step 104: The daytime pixels are distinguished into suspected non-cloudy pixels and cloudy pixels using a first threshold set.

[0043] The first threshold set is composed of at least one of the following factors or combinations: bands where the albedo of clouds and fog is higher than that of other backgrounds, bands where the albedo of water bodies is lower than that of clouds and fog, bands where the brightness-temperature difference of clouds and fog is lower than that of other backgrounds, bands where the brightness-temperature difference of clouds and fog is lower than that of other backgrounds, and bands where the ratio of thick cloud albedo to that of other backgrounds is higher than that of other backgrounds.

[0044] For example, the first set of thresholds includes parameters or combinations of parameters among albedo R0.64, R0.51, R1.6, brightness temperature difference BTD11.2-3.9, BTD11.2-12.4, albedo ratio R0.86 / R0.64, and brightness temperature BT7.3.

[0045] Using albedo R 0.64 R 0.51 R 1.6 Brightness temperature difference BTD 11.2-3.9 BTD 11.2-12.4 Albedo R 0.86 / R 0.64 and brightness temperature BT 7.3 These bands or combinations of bands serve as the basis for identifying sea fog, thereby distinguishing between suspected non-cloudy / fog pixels and cloudy / fog pixels.

[0046] According to Mie scattering theory, the scattering effect of clouds and fog is quite significant, especially in the visible light band R. 0.64 The albedo of clouds and fog is significantly higher than that of the underlying surface such as vegetation and water bodies. Furthermore, due to the temporal variation of the solar zenith angle, the albedo of the visible light band changes with different times and seasons. Therefore, by analyzing the functional relationship between cloud and fog reflectance in the visible light band and the solar zenith angle, a cloud and fog reflectance function with the solar zenith angle as the independent variable is constructed, setting R... 0.64 The dynamic threshold improves the accuracy of cloud and fog detection when the solar zenith angle is large.

[0047] Compared to clouds and fog, water has a lower albedo, therefore, through R... 0.51 Separate the water from the clouds.

[0048] The mid-infrared band at 3.9 μm lies at the overlap of the solar spectrum and the Earth-atmosphere radiation spectrum. Therefore, the radiation obtained in this channel during the day includes both reflected solar radiation and infrared radiation emitted by the object itself, neither of which can be ignored. The intensity of reflected radiation in this channel depends on the effective radius of the particles; the smaller the effective radius of the particles, the greater the reflectivity of the channel. Therefore, the reflectivity region of this channel roughly corresponds to the sea fog-covered area.

[0049] Converting the radiation in the 3.9 μm band into brightness temperature, the brightness temperature difference (BTD) between 11.2 μm and 3.9 μm for sea fog is... 11.2-3.9 A negative value indicates a low level of water cloud, which is more effective in detecting the presence of low-level water clouds and is smaller than that of other surfaces. The brightness temperature difference in fog areas is relatively concentrated, ranging from -35°C to -20°C, with a peak around -35°C. The brightness temperature difference spectrum in mid-to-high cloud areas is wider, ranging from -45°C to -20°C, with a peak around -30°C. Although the peak distributions of fog and cloud areas show some differences, they also overlap significantly, exhibiting a degree of cohesion, especially in the brightness temperature difference distribution. Therefore, in addition to these two indicators for identifying fog areas, other criteria need to be incorporated.

[0050] Long-wave infrared band BT 11.2 BT 12.4Solar radiation has very little energy; the primary source of radiation is the radiation emitted by the underlying surface and the clouds themselves. Therefore, the higher the temperature of an object, the greater its emissivity. Mid-to-high clouds, compared to sea fog and the underlying surface, have a higher altitude, thus their cloud top temperatures are lower than fog tops and the underlying surface, resulting in lower brightness temperatures. This can be utilized in BTD (Brightness Temperature Detection). 11.2-12.4 The small differences in brightness temperature of clouds and fog, compared to the large variations in the brightness temperature of water bodies, distinguish them from water bodies.

[0051] The albedo ratio R between the 0.86μm band and the 0.64μm band 0.86 / R0.64 It is effective for detecting thick clouds on the ocean surface and can effectively locate areas of water.

[0052] In shortwave infrared R 1.6 Snow and ice crystals have very low reflectivity, therefore ice clouds also have very low reflectivity, but low clouds still have high reflectivity in this band. BT 7.3 It is more sensitive to high clouds; the higher the cloud top, the lower the temperature, thus enabling the detection of high clouds.

[0053] Step 105: Use the second threshold set to perform threshold judgment on the suspected non-cloudy / foggy pixels to obtain the first part of primary sea fog pixels.

[0054] The second threshold set is composed of at least one of the following factors or combinations: bands with reflectivity greater than other backgrounds in the sea fog channel, bands with reflectivity lower than other backgrounds in the water body, and the effective radius range of cloud particles in the sea fog;

[0055] For example, the second threshold set includes R0.51, BT3.9, and CLER. Using R... 0.51 BT 3.9 CLER performs threshold judgment on suspected non-cloudy pixels.

[0056] Non-sea fog detection data selection R 0.51 BT 3.9 The threshold setting of the effective radius (CLER) of cloud particles is used to determine the sea fog identification results in areas suspected to be non-cloudy or foggy.

[0057] Because the brightness temperature difference method has limitations in detecting shallow fog, some fog may be identified as non-sea fog pixels. Furthermore, although R... 0.86 / R0.64 It works well for detecting thick clouds over the ocean surface, but errors can easily occur at the cloud edges, thus some areas covered by haze are also identified as non-cloudy areas. Therefore, R is selected in this step. 0.51 BT 3.9 Further analysis of the effective radius of cloud particles led to a preliminary identification result that incorrectly identified the area as non-sea fog as sea fog.

[0058] R 0.51 The water body has a low albedo, therefore, through R0.51 Separate the sea fog that was mistakenly identified as not being a sea fog area.

[0059] The reflected radiation intensity at 3.9 μm depends on the effective radius of the particle; the smaller the effective radius, the greater the reflectivity of the channel. Therefore, there is a good correspondence between the region of high reflectivity in this channel and the sea fog-covered area. Therefore, BT... 3.9 The effective radius of cloud particles was used as a criterion for further sea fog identification.

[0060] Step 106: Use the third threshold set to perform threshold judgment on the cloud and fog pixels to obtain the second part of primary sea fog pixels.

[0061] The third threshold set is composed of at least one of the following factors or combinations: physical features related to cloud identification (including cloud optical thickness and effective radius of cloud particles), bands that distinguish the albedo of clouds from fog, and bands that distinguish the texture of clouds from fog.

[0062] For example, the third threshold set includes R0.64, 0.64μm texture information, R2.3, CLOT, and CLER. Using R... 0.64 0.64μm texture information, R 2.3 CLOT and CLER are used to determine the threshold of cloud and fog pixels.

[0063] The pixel was judged to be a cloud or fog pixel using R 0.64 0.64μm texture information, R 2.3 By excluding cloud pixels based on cloud optical thickness and effective radius of cloud particles, the result may be sea fog.

[0064] Fog in R 0.64 The reflectivity of the cloud is significantly greater than that of the underlying surface, but less than that of mid-to-high clouds. Although the ranges of cloud albedo and sea fog albedo overlap to some extent, some cloud pixels can be excluded from the cloud and fog pixels.

[0065] Since most fog forms under stable weather conditions (temperature inversion) when warm, moist air moves onto a cold surface, its top height is uniform, resulting in minimal variation in brightness and a smooth, uniform texture. In contrast, mid-to-high clouds, especially cumulus, exhibit significant variations in top height, leading to marked changes in brightness and texture. Therefore, R... 0.64 The texture information of each pixel is calculated using formula (1), and cumulus clouds with large texture changes are excluded by setting a texture threshold.

[0066] Texture = (R i-1,j-1 +R i-1,j +R i-1,j+1 +R i,j-1 +R i,j+1 +R i+1,j-1 +R i+1,j +R i+1,j+1)-8×R i,j (1)

[0067] Where i and j are pixel indices, and R is the albedo.

[0068] In the near-infrared (NIR) band R 2.3 The reflectivity is highly sensitive to changes in the effective particle radius of clouds and fog; the larger the effective particle radius, the lower the reflectivity. When the optical thickness is large, the increase in reflectivity with increasing optical thickness decreases. For clouds and fog with a certain optical thickness, the reflectivity at 2.3 μm gradually becomes less than the reflectivity at channel 0.64 as the effective particle radius increases. Therefore, R is set... 2.3 Thresholds for cloud optical thickness and cloud particle effective radius are used to identify fog pixels in cloud pixels.

[0069] Step 107: Use the fourth threshold set to perform threshold judgment on the primary sea fog pixels to obtain the final sea fog pixels.

[0070] The fourth threshold set comprises at least one of the following factors or combinations: the range of cloud top heights that distinguish sea fog from clouds, cloud optical thickness, effective particle radius range, and band reflectivity values ​​that vary linearly with optical thickness.

[0071] For example, the fourth threshold set includes CLTH, R0.64, CLER, and CLOT. Using CLTH, R... 0.64 CLER and CLOT are used to threshold the pixels identified as sea fog.

[0072] The sea fog identification results for suspected non-cloudy pixels and the sea fog identification results for cloudy pixels were obtained by using cloud top height and R, respectively. 0.64 The effective radius of cloud particles and the optical thickness of clouds are used as further criteria to determine sea fog, thus obtaining the final sea fog identification result. Due to the unique physical and meteorological conditions that form sea fog, its thickness is generally only tens to hundreds of meters. Therefore, cloud top height can be used as a threshold to distinguish some sea fog from stratus clouds.

[0073] The peak diameter of sea fog droplets is mostly between 3 and 7 μm, and the effective particle radius is smaller than that of clouds as generally considered. Regardless of the effective particle radius, the reflectivity at 0.64 μm varies very little, but changes significantly with optical thickness. The greater the optical thickness of the cloud / fog, the greater the reflectivity at 0.64 μm, with a generally linear increasing relationship between the two. Therefore, by setting R... 0.64 The thresholds for the effective radius of cloud particles and the optical thickness of clouds are used to obtain the final sea fog detection results, and to effectively distinguish between sea fog and stratus clouds, thereby improving the accuracy of sea fog identification.

[0074] Example 2
