Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of quantitative inversion of surface parameters, and in particular to a physical inversion method of root layer soil moisture based on vegetation transpiration. Background Art

[0002] Root layer soil moisture is a key parameter driving the three major circulation systems of water, energy and carbon on the earth's surface. It has an important feedback effect on the carbon sink efficiency and temperature regulation of the surrounding environment by controlling the development and growth of vegetation and physiological mechanisms (transpiration, water absorption and stomatal opening and closing, etc.), and greatly affects the surface-atmosphere interaction and energy exchange process. In the context of the dual core driving forces of global change and population explosion, the dynamic changes of root layer soil moisture are of great significance to the research of agriculture, hydrology, ecology, climate change and social economy.

[0003] At present, water shortage has become a major challenge that needs to be solved urgently worldwide, especially in densely populated areas, where groundwater resources are experiencing a severe decline year by year. Agriculture, as the main consumer of water resources, accounts for about 70% of the world's available water resources. Scientific water resource management policies based on root layer soil moisture are of great significance for alleviating water resource pressure and promoting the rational allocation and efficient use of water resources. Therefore, obtaining the spatiotemporal distribution and change information of root layer soil moisture has important scientific significance and application value for agricultural monitoring, water resource management, and global climate change research, and is one of the frontier topics in the fields of agriculture, water resources, and climate change.

[0004] Traditional root layer soil moisture monitoring mainly relies on direct point measurement of soil profiles or the expansion of point observation data to the grid scale by grid interpolation. This method can roughly reflect the spatial distribution of root layer soil moisture, but the accuracy of the interpolation result is affected by the number and distribution of observation points, and the cost is high. In the context of the big data era, data assimilation or data-driven methods that rely on surface soil moisture observation information have many challenges, including the decrease in accuracy caused by the accumulation of initial errors in observation data, insufficient spatial resolution to capture fine terrain features, complex error sources that are difficult to quantify accurately, and the parameter calibration process is easily disturbed by multiple factors such as surface characteristics and vegetation cover. The inversion methods based on remote sensing technology generally have the problem of low accuracy and fail to consider the impact of vegetation on the "saturation" of root layer soil moisture. This limitation is mainly attributed to the insufficient explanation of the complex process mechanism of surface water pressure (indicators such as potential evaporation ratio, evaporation ratio and transpiration ratio). In general, the current root layer soil moisture inversion algorithm is difficult to meet the high-precision requirements for root layer soil moisture in modern agriculture, water resources and climate change. Therefore, developing a physical inversion method for root layer soil moisture that is independent of surface soil moisture information and has high generalization ability and high precision is not only the basic prerequisite for obtaining high-precision root layer soil moisture data at regional and even global scales, but also the inevitable trend and core direction for promoting the development of future quantitative inversion technology for root layer soil moisture. Summary of the invention

These factors include the physical properties of the soil (such as bulk density, porosity, etc.), plant species and their physiological characteristics (such as root distribution pattern, the correlation between transpiration rate and leaf area, etc.), and the combined influence of external environmental conditions (such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, etc.), expressed as: (9) In the formula, T p is the potential transpiration; h 3l Indicates the upper limit of pressure head when the atmospheric water vapor demand is low. T p = T 3l ; h 3h Indicates the upper limit of pressure head when the atmospheric water vapor demand is high. T p = T 3h ; T 3l The value is set to 1 mmd -1 , T 3h The value is set to 5mmd -1 .

[0026] S3, the conversion function of the Rosetta model, infers the soil hydraulic parameters of the van Genuchten-Mualem model through soil texture information, and uses the van Genuchten-Mualem model and Feddes model pressure head database to calculate the wilting coefficient and critical soil moisture under different soil types, vegetation parameters and meteorological factors; S4.1. Using the data of gross primary productivity (GPP) and vapor pressure deficit (VPD) of meteorological factors, the underlying water use efficiency (uWUE) model is used to separate the actual evapotranspiration and obtain the vegetation transpiration, including: Through the uWUE model, the evapotranspiration is indirectly estimated using the biological information GPP and the meteorological factor VPD. The evapotranspiration ET is decomposed into evaporation E and transpiration T within a larger time scale, as shown below: (10) in, uWUE arepresents apparent water use efficiency, GPP represents gross primary productivity of vegetation, and VPD represents saturated vapor pressure deficit; T near ET When the vegetation coverage is high, the evaporation E can be ignored, and the uWUE model is expressed as: (11) in, uWUE p represents the potential water use efficiency, which is determined by statistical methods of time series data, i.e., using years of uWUE a data to estimate the 95% order of magnitude for each location. uWUE a value and use this value as the evaluation uWUE p An alternative reference indicator of potential ceiling.

[0027] The transpiration rate T is obtained by formula (10) and formula (11), which is expressed as: (12).

[0028] S4.2. The Penman-Monteith formula is used to calculate the potential evapotranspiration without water evaporation pressure under given radiation and meteorological conditions, expressed as follows: (13) in, ET p The Penman formula divides evapotranspiration into two parts: the first part is the evaporation caused by water absorbing radiation. ET rad , the second part is aerodynamically driven evaporation ET aero ; R n and G are the surface net radiation and soil heat flux, respectively, in W / m 2 ; r c is the canopy impedance under sufficient water supply conditions, in s / m; r a is the aerodynamic impedance, in s / m; c p is the specific heat of air at constant pressure, in J / (kg℃); c is the psychrometric constant, set to 0.0658 kPa / ℃; Δ is the slope of saturated water vapor pressure and temperature, in kPa / ℃; r is the air density, in kg / m3 .

[0029] S4.3. Based on the Lambert-Beer law, the potential vegetation transpiration is derived using the Leaf Area Index (LAI) and potential evapotranspiration, and the transpiration ratio is obtained by the ratio of vegetation transpiration to potential vegetation transpiration, which includes: Potential vegetation transpiration obtained by Lambert-Beer law T p , expressed as; (14) In the formula, LAI represents the leaf area index, k Indicates the extinction coefficient, set to 0.5-0.75; Vegetation transpiration ratio T r It is expressed as: (15).

[0030] S5, using the normalized root layer soil moisture model constructed by S1, the Feddes model parameters determined by S2, and the van Genuchten-Mualem model parameters determined by S3, the normalized root layer soil moisture is calculated using the transpiration ratio; finally, the normalized root layer soil moisture is converted to the root layer soil volume water content using the wilting coefficient and critical soil moisture. Using the shape parameters determined by S2 and S3 n , The upper limit of soil pressure head when vegetation is limited by water h 3 , pressure head of wilting coefficient h 4 , vegetation transpiration ratio determined by S4 Tr , the normalized root layer soil moisture is calculated by formula (7) and formula (8): oh root ; Then the root layer soil moisture was normalized using the wilting coefficient and critical soil moisture oh root Converted to root layer soil volume water content, expressed as follows: (16) in, represents the volumetric water content of the root layer soil, represents the critical soil moisture, Represents the wilting coefficient.

[0031] This embodiment uses HYDRUS-1D hydrological model simulation data and AmeriFlux (American Flux Network) field experimental data as data sources to invert the root layer soil moisture under different underlying surfaces and atmospheric conditions, including the following steps: Firstly, a root layer soil moisture database under different underlying surfaces and atmospheric conditions was constructed based on the HYDRUS-1D model, and the accuracy of the proposed method was verified using this database to demonstrate the applicability and reliability of this method in retrieving root layer soil moisture in a wide range of areas. Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 (a) shows the scatter diagram of root layer soil moisture under clear sky conditions in semi-arid region (US-Bi1); (b) shows the scatter diagram of root layer soil moisture under cloudy conditions in semi-arid region (US-Bi1); (c) shows the scatter diagram of root layer soil moisture under clear sky conditions in semi-humid region (US-Ne3); (d) shows the scatter diagram of root layer soil moisture under cloudy conditions in semi-humid region (US-Ne3).

[0032] Overview of simulation settings: (1) Soil type: A total of 30 soil types were considered, which varied in physical, chemical, and biological properties, representing a wide range of soil type diversity; (2) Vegetation type: Five vegetation types (corn, soybean, wheat, alfalfa, and grassland) were included in the simulation, which differed in physiological and ecological characteristics, transpiration intensity, and water use efficiency; (3) Meteorological conditions: The simulation covered 24 meteorological conditions, which were derived from measured atmospheric data in semi-arid (US-Bi1) and semi-humid (US-Ne3) regions, including clear and cloudy weather, as shown in Table 1; (4) Vegetation coverage: 19 vegetation coverage levels were set with an interval of 0.05 to simulate different conditions from bare soil to full vegetation coverage. The simulation design fully considers the effects of different soil types, vegetation types, climate conditions (such as rainfall, temperature, humidity, radiation, etc.), and vegetation coverage on soil moisture dynamics.

[0033]

[0034] In the example of measured data, in order to verify the applicability of the method of the present application under natural variable conditions, the observation data of six US flux network sites (US-ARM, US-Bi1, US-Ne1, US-Ne2, US-Ne3, US-Var) were used to estimate the root layer soil moisture. The results are as follows Figure 3 — Figure 8 As shown in the figure, the inversion results of the proposed method are verified by using the observed soil moisture in the root layer. The weighted average of the observed soil moisture in the root layer at a fixed depth is used as the relative truth value: (17) In the above formula, represents the average root zone soil moisture, i i At different soil depths L i Observed soil moisture content.

[0035] The selection of sites in this example ensures that the evaluation of the proposed method can span different climate regions, from humid to semi-arid, to achieve a comprehensive and multi-level verification of the model performance. Vegetation types include key crop species such as wheat, corn, soybeans and alfalfa, demonstrating their unique value in agricultural research, as shown in Table 2.

[0036]

[0037] At the same time, the Aridity Index (AI) is used to distinguish the degree of drought at different sites: (18) In the above formula, PET represents the potential evaporation, P Represents precipitation.

[0038] In S2, a pressure head database under different vegetation conditions of the Feddes model is constructed, taking into account the differences in the adaptation mechanisms and ecological strategies of plants under different plant types and environmental conditions to water stress. h 3l and T 3l In low atmospheric water vapor evaporation environments, such as low radiation, high humidity, and low wind speed, the pressure on transpiration is relatively small. There is also a critical soil water pressure head threshold h 3l When the soil water potential drops below this threshold, the transpiration rate begins to decline significantly. Under low atmospheric demand conditions, when soil water is abundant, the potential transpiration rate that plants can achieve is defined as T 3l , to reflect environmental conditions with low evaporation potential.

[0039] Relatively speaking, h 3h and T 3h It is closely related to the environment with high evaporation demand. Under conditions of high radiation, low humidity and high wind speed, transpiration may be extremely strong. There is also a critical value of soil water potential at this time. h 3h When the soil water potential is lower than h 3hWhen the evaporation demand is high, the evaporation rate is severely restricted by the soil moisture. Under conditions of high surface evaporation demand, if the soil moisture is sufficient, the potential evaporation rate that plants can achieve is defined as T 3h , to reflect environmental conditions with high evaporation potential. h 3l and h 3h The specific values ​​of depend mainly on the plant type. These values ​​are obtained by consulting previous research data or conducting field experiments, which comprehensively considers various factors such as the plant's growth stage, soil type, soil moisture status, and environmental conditions, as shown in Table 3.

[0040]

[0041] In this example, the parameters of the van Genuchten-Mualem model are derived from the soil texture information of the input site by using the Rosetta model using the conversion function, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of parameter acquisition in the method of this application and realizing the inversion of root layer soil moisture at the field scale. h 4 Substituted into the van Genuchten-Mualem model, the critical soil moisture is obtained by h 3 Substitute it into the van Genuchten-Mualem model and calculate it. The determination of the wilting coefficient mainly depends on the soil type and vegetation type.

[0042] In this application method, by introducing the concept of critical soil moisture, the "saturation" effect of vegetation on root layer soil moisture is fully considered to solve the problem of the complex and changeable coupling relationship between vegetation transpiration and root layer soil moisture under different soil characteristics and environmental factors, such as soil texture, soil structure, vegetation type, meteorological factors, etc. i c ) is defined as the soil moisture content at which plant transpiration begins to be limited by soil moisture, and its value is between field capacity ( i fc ) and the wilting coefficient ( i wp ) to assess the adequacy of water supply during vegetation growth. i c and i fc When the water content of the plant is between 0.01 and 0.02, the plant is considered to be in an ideal water environment, and the transpiration rate is close to its potential maximum value, that is, T r= 1. At this stage, plant transpiration is not limited by soil moisture and can fully meet the growth needs of plants. It also means that vegetation transpiration loses sensitivity to changes in root layer soil moisture.

[0043] In this example, necessary data quality control was performed: (1) Given that the basic principle of the method is to reflect the dynamic changes of root layer soil moisture through the stress state of vegetation, this example focuses on the growing season of vegetation and selects dates that have the observation values ​​required for the input of the method (soil properties, vegetation parameters, and meteorological factors) for inversion; (2) Exclude situations where the root layer soil moisture may be in an unstable state, generally before and after precipitation.

[0044] The remaining technical features in the above embodiments can be flexibly selected by those skilled in the art according to actual conditions to meet different specific practical needs. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that it is not necessary to adopt these specific details to implement the present invention. In other examples, in order to avoid confusing the present invention, the well-known components, structures or parts are not specifically described, which are all within the technical protection scope defined by the technical solution claimed for protection in the claims of the present invention.
