[0050] The drawings described herein are used to provide a further understanding of the present invention and constitute a part of the present invention. The exemplary embodiments of the present invention and their descriptions are used to explain the present invention and do not constitute an improper limitation of the present invention. In the drawings:

[0053] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments of the present invention and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0054] Ground-based sample plot surveys, as the traditional method for surveying understory biomass and cover, are the most accurate, but they are labor-intensive, time-consuming, and destructive, making them inadequate for large-scale mapping. Advances in aerospace remote sensing technology have made regional, national, and global scales possible. Currently, optical remote sensing technologies and products remain the most widely used and mature. The most commonly used green vegetation indices, such as NDVI and the Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI), provide a direct reflection of vegetation photosynthetic activity and productivity, and serve as surrogates for leaf area index and vegetation cover. Due to their sensitivity to components such as lignin and cellulose, multispectral and hyperspectral indices such as the Cellulose Absorption Index (CAI), the Dead Fuel Index (DFI), and the Short-wave Infrared Ratio Index (SWIR32) are being used. Using a pixel triangulation model, sub-pixel-level features such as PV, NPV, and bare soil (BS) can be distinguished. NPV is a land feature classification method based on optical remote sensing. While it provides some information on the three-dimensional structure of tree branches, trunks, and fallen leaves, it is essentially an identification of land feature types in two-dimensional projection space. The layered and obstructive nature of forest floor structure makes accurately inverting understory biomass and effectively representing the erosion protection function of actual vegetation a challenge at the regional scale.

[0055] Optical and near-infrared remote sensing signals only interact with the foliage of the forest canopy through radiation, are easily saturated, and are also affected by weather conditions such as clouds, rain, and fog. Compared to optical signals, microwaves have longer wavelengths (1mm-1m) and greater transmissivity. They are sensitive to forest vertical structure and unaffected by clouds or sunlight, making them an indispensable tool for current forest resource surveys. Microwave remote sensing, which can "see through" the forest understory and complements optical remote sensing's ability to "classify" ground features, is considered a promising integrated approach for three-dimensional forest monitoring. However, further research on how to coordinate microwave and optical remote sensing remains limited.

[0056] Compared with optical remote sensing, the main reasons hindering the widespread application of microwave remote sensing technology are factors such as the small number of satellites, lack of data, high cost (such as LiDAR), discontinuous time series, coarse spatial resolution (such as radiometer spatial resolution >25km), and severe radio frequency interference (especially in the L low-frequency band). However, the development of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) technology still provides great advantages and broad prospects for regional forest resource surveys.

[0057] The execution subject of the inversion method of forest understory biomass provided in the present invention can be a server set up on a business platform, or a device such as a desktop computer, a laptop computer, etc. that can execute the solution of the present invention.

[0058] The technical solutions provided by various embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0059] Figure 1 The figure is a flow chart of a method for inverting understory biomass in the present invention, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0060] S101, determining an observation formula for the total surface biomass of forest land based on radar remote sensing data, optical remote sensing data and the total surface biomass of forest land in the historical area.

[0061] In one embodiment, an observation formula for the total surface biomass of forest land is determined based on radar remote sensing data, optical remote sensing data and the total surface biomass of forest land in a historical area, including: constructing an initial observation formula for the total surface biomass of forest land based on optical remote sensing parameters and a water-cloud model; solving the parameters in the initial observation formula based on radar remote sensing data, optical remote sensing data and the total surface biomass of forest land in the historical area to obtain an optimal parameter combination of the parameters in the initial observation formula; substituting the optimal parameter combination into the initial observation formula to obtain the observation formula.

[0062] The process of constructing the initial observation formula includes: constructing a vegetation coverage information compensation formula based on optical remote sensing parameters; and associating the water cloud model with the vegetation coverage information compensation formula to obtain the initial observation formula.

[0063] Based on the traditional water cloud model WCM, the high-order scattering mechanism is ignored and the water cloud model is adopted as shown in the following equation (1).

[0066] Introducing optical remote sensing information such as surface reflectivity in the red, near-infrared, and green bands to compensate for vegetation coverage information: Introducing optical remote sensing data to compensate for the shortcomings of radar backscatter coefficients in different polarization modes that cannot well represent vegetation coverage information, thereby improving the simulation ability of forest scattered signals. Generally speaking, the higher the biomass, the lower the forest transmittance, and it exhibits an exponential decay form. Based on this, the optical remote sensing forest transmittance is used as the T for , characterized by a relationship with the surface coverage f vc It is related to the surface biomass and has an exponential function relationship with it, such as formula (2), and formula (3) is also obtained from it.

[0070] Optical remote sensing parameters include vegetation cover with photosynthesis and vegetation cover without photosynthesis. A vegetation coverage information compensation formula is constructed to further compensate for the reflection of NPV on forest structure. The vegetation coverage information compensation formula is formula (4).

[0071] (4);

[0072] in, represents the coverage of photosynthetic vegetation. Indicates the coverage of vegetation that does not photosynthesize.

[0073] The optical remote sensing forest cover information expressed by formula (4) is associated with the microwave remote sensing forest structure information expressed by formula (1) to obtain the initial observation formula, as shown in formula (5).

[0074] (5);

[0075] Among them, the symbol " ", represents any of the four arithmetic operations to ensure model equivalence.

[0076] Radar remote sensing data include total backscatter of forest land, backscatter directly returned from the surface of forest gaps, and backscatter directly returned from the surface of forest canopy; optical remote sensing data include vegetation cover with photosynthesis and vegetation cover without photosynthesis; according to radar remote sensing data, optical remote sensing data and total surface biomass of forest land in historical areas, the parameters in the initial observation formula are solved to obtain the optimal parameter combination of the parameters in the initial observation formula, including: total backscatter of forest land based on historical areas, backscatter directly returned from the surface of forest gaps, backscatter directly returned from the surface of forest canopy, as well as vegetation cover with photosynthesis, vegetation cover without photosynthesis and total surface biomass of forest land. The nonlinear least squares algorithm is used to optimize the parameters in the initial observation formula to obtain and The optimal parameter combination.

[0077] in, It can be directly obtained from satellite observations. and It can be inverted from optical remote sensing data. and It can be simulated by the water cloud model. is a natural constant, and the total surface biomass of forest land in the historical area is actually measured. 、 The optimal value can be obtained by nonlinear least squares method based on satellite observation results and ground measurement results.

[0078] Specifically, 、 、 , which represent the total backscatter of SAR data, pure surface backscatter, and backscatter observed in dense forests. In the study area, according to the classification results of land use type and vegetation cover, bare soil or land cover <25% was selected as pure surface, and its backscatter median value was taken as ; Select the land type with coverage greater than 75% as dense forest land, and take its backscatter median as . δ 、 τ It is an empirical parameter related to forest structure and biochemical characteristics. It is optimized based on the nonlinear least squares algorithm. Specifically, by setting a large number of evenly distributed sample points (multiple points in the historical area), combining the actual observed backscatter directly returned from the surface of forest gaps, backscatter directly returned from the canopy surface, as well as the vegetation cover with photosynthesis, the vegetation cover without photosynthesis and the total surface biomass of the forest, based on the parameter combination ( δ and τ The root mean square error between the simulated total backscatter of the forest and the actual observed total backscatter of the forest is minimized to determine the optimal 、 combination.

[0079] S102, substituting the radar remote sensing data and the optical remote sensing data of the target area into the initial observation formula to determine the total surface biomass of the forest land in the target area.

[0080] Among them, radar remote sensing data include total backscatter from forest land, backscatter directly returned from the surface of forest gaps, and backscatter directly returned from the surface of forest canopy; optical remote sensing data include vegetation cover with photosynthesis and vegetation cover without photosynthesis.

[0081] Substitute the optimal parameter combination, radar remote sensing data and optical remote sensing data of the target area into formula (5) to obtain the total surface biomass of the forest land .

[0082] S103 , inverting the average leaf area index of the target area based on the optical remote sensing data of the target area; and calculating the leaf biomass based on the average leaf area index of the target area and the weight of leaf dry matter per unit area.

[0083] The mean leaf area index was obtained by inversion using the PROGeoSAIL optical model based on radiative transfer theory.

[0084] Optionally, the optical remote sensing data includes canopy reflectance; and based on the optical remote sensing data of the target area, the average leaf area index of the target area is inverted, including: obtaining the average leaf area index corresponding to the canopy reflectance of the target area from a pre-constructed correspondence between the canopy reflectance and the average leaf area index, that is, the average leaf area index of the target area.

[0085] The process of constructing the correspondence between canopy reflectance and average leaf area index includes: obtaining multiple sets of historical observation data of the reference area; each set of historical observation data includes leaf biochemical parameters, canopy structure parameters, sensor and geographical parameters, and soil background parameters; canopy structure parameters include average leaf area index; substituting each set of historical observation data into the PROGeoSAIL model to obtain the canopy reflectance of the reference area; and constructing the correspondence between canopy reflectance and average leaf area index based on multiple sets of historical observation data and the corresponding canopy reflectance.

[0086] Specifically, the PROGeoSAIL model is derived by coupling the PROSPECT model with the GeoSAIL model. Leaf biochemical parameters (see Table 1) are substituted into the leaf reflectance and transmittance results obtained from the PROSPECT simulation. The leaf reflectance and transmittance results, along with canopy structural parameters, sensor and geographic parameters, and soil background parameters, are then used as inputs into the GeoSAIL model to simulate the radiation transfer process of the tree canopy and determine the canopy reflectance. The GeoSAIL model is capable of effectively simulating the canopy reflectance of heterogeneous and discontinuous vegetation types. Coupling the PROSPECT and GeoSAIL models simulates the canopy reflectance corresponding to different leaf area indices, thereby obtaining a corresponding relationship between canopy reflectance and mean leaf area index. The mean leaf area index can then be derived from canopy reflectance obtained from satellite observations.

[0087] The PROGeoSAIL radiative transfer model is represented as follows.

[0088] ρ veg = f (θ s , φ s , θ v , φ v , f d , LAI, LAD, N, C a+b , C w , C m , ρ s , f PV , S cp , R cp ) (6);

[0089] The meaning and observation methods of each parameter in the formula are shown in Table 1. Table 1 shows the meaning and acquisition methods of the parameters required by the PROGeoSAIL model.

[0090] Table 1 Meaning and acquisition method of parameters required by PROGeoSAIL model

[0091]

[0092] Leaf biomass, as measured by the average leaf area index ( LAI ) and leaf dry matter content ( DMC ) is obtained, and the leaf biomass inversion formula is as shown in formula (7).

[0093] (7);

[0094] in, represents leaf biomass, DMC Indicates the dry matter weight of leaves per unit area, g / cm 2 , obtained through field measurements. LAI It represents the average leaf area index, which is half of the sum of the surface areas of leaves per unit area and is dimensionless.

[0095] S104, determining the understory vegetation and litter biomass in the target area based on the total surface biomass, leaf biomass, and aboveground woody biomass of the forest land in the target area.

[0096] The total aboveground biomass of a forest is composed of the following components:

[0097] (8);

[0098] in, represents the biomass of understory vegetation and litter, represents the total surface biomass of forest land, represents leaf biomass, Represents the above-ground woody biomass of forest land.

[0099] Therefore, the calculation formula for the biomass of understory vegetation and litter in the target area is:

[0100] (9);

[0101] in, It can be estimated by the coordinated active and passive remote sensing model (Formula (5)); Radiative transfer model estimation based on optical remote sensing (Equations (6) and (7)); It is the biomass of the above-ground woody parts of forest land, such as trunks and branches. Based on this, the biomass of understory vegetation and litter can be calculated using formula (9): .

[0102] The National Standard of the People's Republic of China, "Standing Biomass Model and Carbon Accounting Parameters for Major Tree Species" (GB / T43648-2024), clearly provides a model for estimating standing biomass of major tree species in China. By measuring parameters such as the diameter at breast height and tree height of different tree species in the target area and substituting them into the model, accurate standing biomass can be obtained, which can be used to estimate .

[0103] Understory shrubs and grasses, as well as litter layers, and other vegetation close to the ground play a key role in preventing and controlling soil erosion and improving ecological service functions. The amount of understory vegetation will cause the vegetation cover and the biological measure factor value (C / B) to differ by 1-2 orders of magnitude. Due to deficiencies in monitoring methods and technologies, questions such as what the understory biomass of the Loess Plateau is like, what are the distribution characteristics, and what are the influencing factors are still difficult and hot issues in regional-scale ecological environmental evaluation. Starting from the analysis of the limitations of understory biomass surveys and regional-scale studies, the complementary characteristics of active and passive remote sensing functions, and the ability of SAR data to estimate the total surface biomass of forest land, the present invention combines remote sensing estimation models for biomass at different levels of the surface and proposes a new algorithm for inverting understory biomass. This algorithm has important theoretical significance and urgent practical needs for promoting in-depth cross-disciplinary integration, improving the application accuracy of regional soil erosion models, and scientifically guiding regional ecological construction and high-quality development.

[0104] This framework comprehensively applies the advantages of different remote sensing data to monitor forest understory biomass and cover. It is theoretically feasible and has great potential.
