Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the fields of atmospheric science and remote sensing technology, and in particular to an adaptive method and model for obtaining microwave surface emissivity at different spatial scales. Background Art

[0002] The land surface is complex and ever-changing, and the interactions between electromagnetic waves and land surface components are extremely complex, making it difficult to establish a comprehensive emissivity model. Currently, commonly used surface emissivity models can be divided into physical models and semi-empirical models.

[0003] Physical models can be further divided into numerical simulations and analytical models. Numerical simulations are difficult to apply to large-scale emissivity studies due to their high computational cost and complex input parameters. Analytical models provide a certain degree of approximation for the scattered field from rough surfaces, but they only consider the effect of the surface's geometric roughness on the scattered field and ignore volume scattering, making them only applicable to conditions with high soil moisture.

[0004] In contrast, semi-empirical models have relatively simple calculation formulas and fewer input parameters, making them more suitable for data analysis and geophysical parameter inversion. However, existing semi-empirical models are generally only applicable to the spatial scale corresponding to the data source and suffer from large calculation errors when processing pixels containing mixed land cover types.

[0067] The following further describes this embodiment with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 As shown, the technical solution provided in this embodiment includes the following contents:

[0068] (1) Establish an emissivity model for a single land surface type.

[0069] First, obtain existing satellite-borne, airborne, and surface microwave brightness temperature data at the target frequency.

[0070] Then, based on the MODIS land cover classification product MCD12C1, relatively "pure" observation pixels of various vegetation types and bare land types were screened.

[0071] Then, using ERA5's atmospheric temperature and humidity profiles, land surface temperature (or effective temperature of bare land), surface pressure, etc. as auxiliary parameters, combined with the MPM93 atmospheric absorption coefficient model and radiation transfer equation, the cold sky background and atmospheric contributions are removed from the observed brightness temperature and the influence of land surface temperature is stripped off, thus obtaining the instantaneous microwave emissivity dataset.

[0072] Finally, taking NDVI, soil moisture, and skin temperature as influencing factors, linear regression was performed step by step from large to small according to the correlation between the three influencing factors and emissivity to establish multiple semi-empirical models of surface emissivity.

[0073] (2) Establish an adaptive emissivity model of mixed pixels.

[0074] First, the ground footprint of the observed pixel is determined based on its geographic coordinates (longitude and latitude), frequency, and scanning angle. This footprint is then matched to the MCD12C1 grid to obtain the target grid, determining its location, surface type, and corresponding percentage. For each target grid, the nearest neighbor matching method is used to obtain snow depth and total vertical liquid water content (TCLW) from the ERA5 reanalysis data based on its geographic coordinates (longitude and latitude).

[0075] Then, for each observation pixel that meets the criteria, the model input parameters were matched at a 0.05-degree grid and then applied to each single-type emissivity model to calculate the emissivity of each land surface type within each grid. For parameters with a resolution equal to or lower than 0.05 degrees (NDVI, surface temperature, soil moisture, and soil temperature), the input parameters were directly matched using the nearest neighbor method. For surface parameters with a resolution higher than 0.05 degrees (topography slope and percentage of sandy soil), the parameters were first resampled to 0.05 degrees and then matched using the nearest neighbor method.

[0076] Finally, the comprehensive weight coefficient of each land surface type in each grid is calculated based on the area proportion of each type in each grid and the normalized radiant power of each grid. The emissivity of the target grid is expressed as the sum of the products of the emissivity of the land surface types contained in the grid and the corresponding comprehensive weight coefficient.

[0077] Example 2

[0078] This embodiment provides an adaptive model for obtaining microwave surface emissivity at different spatial scales, including

[0079] The acquisition module, based on the land cover classification database, is used to filter and obtain observation pixels of various vegetation types and bare land types from the acquired observation brightness temperature data;

[0080] The dataset module is used to remove the cold sky background and atmospheric contribution from the observed pixel brightness temperature data, and to remove the influence of land surface temperature to obtain the instantaneous microwave emissivity dataset;

[0081] The model building module establishes multiple semi-empirical emissivity models of single land surface types through linear regression based on the correlation between influencing factors and microwave surface emissivity;

[0082] The matching module is used to determine the ground footprint of the observation pixel and match the ground footprint with the grid of the land cover classification database to obtain the location of the target grid of the ground footprint, the surface type and its corresponding area ratio;

[0083] The ground footprint module is used to obtain the snow depth and atmospheric parameters from the climate reanalysis database based on the geographic coordinates of the ground footprint target grid using the nearest neighbor matching method to obtain the ground footprint under clear sky and without ice and snow cover;

[0084] A substitution module is used to match the input parameters of the emissivity semi-empirical model obtained by the model establishment module with preset units, and substitute the matched input parameters into the emissivity semi-empirical model of each single land surface type to calculate the microwave emissivity of each type of land surface within each target grid of the ground footprint;

[0085] A comprehensive weight module is used to calculate the comprehensive weight coefficient by combining the area proportion of different land surface types in each target grid and the normalized antenna pattern radiation power; and

[0086] The microwave emissivity module is used to obtain the microwave emissivity of the target grid, where the microwave emissivity of the target grid is expressed as the sum of the products of the emissivity of all land surface types in the target grid and the corresponding comprehensive weight coefficient.

[0087] The model proposed in this invention has at least the following two improvements compared to previous models:

[0088] First, to facilitate calculation and analysis, most existing methods use a fixed-size latitude and longitude grid (e.g., 0.25° × 0.25°) as their research object, analyzing the coverage and energy contribution of different surface types within the grid. This approach is of great significance for fundamental theoretical research, but because the satellite footprint does not perfectly match the grid, it cannot be directly applied to satellite observation data. Resampling the observation data to a specified grid size increases the computational cost and reduces processing speed. Furthermore, a small number of studies use the ground range corresponding to the antenna's ground resolution as their research object. However, the nominal resolution of a radiometer is the ground range corresponding to a 3dB beamwidth, which is approximately one-sixth the area of ​​the actual footprint. Therefore, this method may overlook some important ground information. The model proposed in this paper uses the ground range corresponding to the antenna's main beam as its research object. For observation data that meet the model's application requirements, the corresponding ground emissivity can be directly calculated, eliminating the need for brightness temperature resampling and more comprehensively considering the footprint size.

[0089] Secondly, previous studies typically use the percentage of area occupied by each land surface type within the mixed pixel as a weight to calculate the emissivity of the mixed pixel, rarely considering the role of the antenna pattern. This approach has little impact on gridded observational data, but can introduce significant errors in models that focus on 3dB footprints or main beam footprints. Therefore, this invention comprehensively considers the influence of the antenna pattern and the area percentage of each type, and proposes a comprehensive weight coefficient for each land surface type, addressing the shortcomings of previous models.

[0090] This embodiment comprehensively considers the area proportions of different land surface types within a pixel and the influence of antenna patterns to establish an adaptive land surface microwave emissivity model for observation pixels. Compared to traditional models, which typically simulate microwave emissivity based on artificially demarcated ground areas for ease of calculation and analysis, and fail to consider the impact of antenna reception characteristics on the received signal, this approach is difficult to directly apply to satellite observation data with real-time changes in observation position, scanning angle, and other parameters. The fast, adaptive emissivity calculation model for observation pixels proposed in this embodiment can directly calculate the microwave emissivity of any given observation pixel.

[0091] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are intended only to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that modifications or equivalent substitutions to the technical solutions of the present invention do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention and are intended to be encompassed by the claims of the present invention.
