Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of water body monitoring and analysis, and specifically relates to a method and system for quantitatively analyzing three elements of water color by coupling ultraviolet-visible absorption and reflection spectra. Background Art

[0002] As an important bio-optical indicator, water color's dynamic changes carry crucial information about the aquatic environment and are of central importance to ecological research, resource management, and environmental security. The optical characteristics of water are determined by stable water molecules and variable optically active components (OACs). Phytoplankton, colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM), and non-algae particulate matter (NAP) constitute the three key elements of water color. The optical properties and concentration variations of these three components directly influence the spectral characteristics of water, making them key components of remote water color monitoring.

[0003] The current mainstream water color remote sensing algorithms can be divided into two categories: empirical models and semi-analytical models. The empirical model directly establishes the remote sensing reflectance R rs The statistical relationship between the concentration of OACs and the concentration of saturated fatty acids is simple to operate but has significant regional dependence. The semi-analytical model obtains better universality by numerically solving the radiation transfer equation. Among them, the quasi-analytical algorithm (QAA) is a typical representative and can be used to calculate the concentration of saturated fatty acids by R rs Invert the total absorption coefficient a(λ) and separate it into the phytoplankton absorption coefficient a ph (λ), the sum of the absorption coefficients of NAP and CDOM a dg However, since this algorithm assumes that NAP and CDOM have similar exponential decay spectral shapes, it cannot achieve accurate separation of the two.

[0004] Technical bottlenecks primarily arise from two aspects: First, existing satellite sensors generally lack the ultraviolet band (the characteristic absorption region of CDOM), making it difficult to effectively distinguish the spectral contributions of CDOM and NAP using only visible light. Second, while laboratory / in situ UV-visible absorption spectroscopy can accurately capture water absorption characteristics, its temporal and spatial coverage is orders of magnitude lower than that of remote sensing observations. This technological disconnect between "high-precision point measurements" and "large-scale surface observations" severely restricts the accuracy and efficiency of dynamic water environment monitoring. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the existing difficulty in separating CDOM and NAP in remote water color sensing, this paper proposes a method and system for quantitatively analyzing the three water color elements by coupling UV-visible absorption spectroscopy with remotely sensed reflectance. This approach aims to leverage deep neural networks to learn to predict UV-visible absorption spectra from readily available reflectance data, effectively integrating the spatiotemporal observation capabilities of remote sensing with the accurate spectral information provided by laboratory or in situ spectroscopic measurements. Furthermore, the absorption spectra are decomposed using a model with clear physical meaning, aiming to effectively separate the three water color elements, particularly CDOM and NAP.

[0082] a ph (λ) is calculated as follows:

[0083] a ph (λ)=C chl ·a ph*(λ)

[0084] C chl =f(R rs (λ1),R rs (λ2),…,R rs (λn)

[0085] Among them, C chl is the concentration of chlorophyll components in the water sample to be tested, a ph * (λ) is the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll component per unit concentration, R rs (λ1), R rs (λ2), R rs (λn) are the remote sensing reflectances at wavelengths λ1, λ2, and λn, respectively. f is the chlorophyll concentration inversion model based on remote sensing reflectance. The selection range of f is OC2, OC3, OC4, OCI model, etc. Take the OC3 model as an example:

[0087] Among them, R rs (λ1), R rs (λ2), R rs (λ3) is the remote sensing reflectance at wavelengths of λ1, λ2, and λ3, respectively. a and b are the first and second parameter values ​​of the model, respectively, and are calculated by coupling the measured chlorophyll concentration with the remote sensing reflectance. The values ​​of λ1, λ2, and λ3 are usually selected from bands such as around 660 nm (the band where the absorption and fluorescence peaks of chlorophyll a are located), 690-730 nm (the band that is greatly affected by CDOM and NAP absorption), and 740-760 nm (the band where water body reflection is enhanced and affected by suspended matter backscattering). The specific values ​​are selected according to actual conditions.

[0088] a dg The (λ) separation model is constructed by the following formula:

[0089] a dg (λ)=a g (λ)+a d (λ)

[0090] a g (λ)=C CDOM ·a g * (λ)

[0102] 1.1 Experimental simulated water sample configuration

[0103] In order to construct and verify the technical solution of the present invention, laboratory simulation methods were used to prepare simulated water samples with different OACs concentration gradients that can represent a wide range of water types from clear water to turbid water, oligotrophic to eutrophic. Commercial chlorophyll a standards, internationally accepted Suwannee River Natural Organic Matter (SRNOM) standards and analytical grade kaolin powder were selected as simulants of phytoplankton, colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) and non-algae particulate matter (NAP), respectively.

[0109] 1.3 Reflection spectrum to absorption spectrum mapping method

[0110] In order to realize the mapping from reflection spectrum to absorption spectrum, the intrinsic optical properties of water absorption spectrum are obtained through the apparent optical signal, and a neural network model simulating the reflection spectrum and absorption spectrum data of water samples is constructed using the deep learning method. rs Spectrum, R rs The logarithm of the spectrum and the first-order derivatives of the two are used as input features.

The standardized predicted spectrum of the output is subjected to denormalization and optional Gaussian smoothing to obtain the final predicted absorption spectrum, and will be used for the absorption spectrum decomposition and component inversion described in the follow-up.

[0113] 1.4 Absorption spectrum analysis method

[0114] The main optically active components of water include pure water, chlorophyll, CDOM and NAP. Therefore, the absorption spectrum of the water sample can be represented by the additive absorption spectrum model of the four:

[0115] a(λ)=a w (λ)+a ph (λ)+a g (λ)+a d (λ) (2)

[0116] Among them, a w (λ) is the absorption of pure water, a ph (λ) is the absorption of chlorophyll components, a g (λ) is the absorption of CDOM components, ad (λ) is the absorption of NAP component.

[0117] Since the experiment uses a double-beam spectrophotometer to measure the absorption with ultrapure water as the background reference, the baseline absorption of pure water has been deducted before measuring the solution absorption. Therefore, the absorption spectrum of the water sample obtained in the experiment can be expressed as formula (3):

[0118] a nw (λ)=a ph (λ)+a g (λ)+a d (λ) (3)

[0119] Chlorophyll a has significant absorption peaks in the blue-violet and red light regions, while the absorption spectra of CDOM and NAP have similar characteristics, both of which decay exponentially with increasing wavelength. Based on the significant differences in the absorption spectra of chlorophyll a, CDOM and NAP, the absorption contribution of chlorophyll a can be effectively separated and deducted from the total absorption. ph (λ) can be expressed as equations (4)-(5):

[0120] a ph =C chl ·a ph * (λ) (4)

[0121]

[0122] Among them, C chl is the chlorophyll concentration; a ph * (λ) is the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll per unit concentration; R rs (λ1), R rs (λ2), R rs (λ3) is the remote sensing reflectance at wavelengths of λ1, λ2, and λ3, respectively. Here, the values ​​of λ1, λ2, and λ3 are 660, 710, and 748 nm, respectively. a and b are model parameter values, which can be calculated by coupling the measured chlorophyll concentration with the remote sensing reflectance. Here, the values ​​of a and b are 289.2 and 31.57, respectively.

[0123] Absorption of CDOM componentsa g (λ) is expressed as Equation 6-7:

[0124] a g (λ)=C CDOM ·a g * (λ)·ε (6)

[0125]

[0126] Among them, CCDOM represents the concentration of CDOM in the laboratory solution; ε represents the interference correction term of NAP; γ is the maximum degree of attenuation of the CDOM absorption spectrum, which describes the maximum inhibition ratio of NAP on CDOM absorption; δ is the attenuation rate of the CDOM absorption spectrum, which describes the change rate of the inhibition of the CDOM absorption spectrum when the NAP concentration increases; C NAP is the concentration of NAP (kaolin) in the laboratory solution. a g * (λ) represents the concentration-normalized CDOM absorption spectrum. a g * The absorption spectrum of (λ) in the range of 200-800 nm can be accurately described by three Gaussian functions:

[0127]

[0128] Where E is the photon energy in eV; λ is the wavelength in nm; E i is the central energy position of the i-th Gaussian function, A i is the amplitude of the i-th Gaussian function, W i is the width of the i-th Gaussian function.

[0129] Absorption of NAP componentsa d The (λ) coefficient is expressed as formula (10):

[0130] a d (λ)=C NAP ·a d * (λ) (10)

[0131] Among them, a d * (λ) is the concentration-normalized absorption spectrum, which is described by an exponential function. However, since the laboratory did not use quantitative filter technology when measuring the UV-visible absorption spectrum of simulated water samples, a d * The (λ) spectrum also includes the scattered part produced by NAP, which is a d * (λ) is a correction term, so in the present invention, a d * (λ) can be expressed as:

[0132]

[0133] Where λ0 is the reference wavelength, usually 440nm; a d * (λ0) is the absorption coefficient at the reference wavelength; S is the spectral slope of the absorption spectrum, which determines the decay rate of absorption with wavelength.* (λ) represents a d * The scattering correction term of (λ) can be approximately described by equation (12):

[0134]

[0135] Where m is the scattering correlation coefficient, which describes the scattering intensity; n is the wavelength index of scattering, which describes the relationship between the scattering intensity and wavelength; β is the saturation factor, which is used to simulate the saturation phenomenon of scattering under high concentration of NAP.

[0136] According to the UV-visible absorption spectra and concentration data of laboratory simulated water samples, equations (3)-(12) are combined and the model parameters are solved using the nonlinear least squares method.

[0137] 1.5 Method accuracy verification

[0138] To evaluate the proposed method for quantitatively analyzing the three elements of water color by coupling UV-visible online absorption and reflectance spectroscopy, the accuracy of the method was verified using laboratory-measured reflectance, absorption spectra, and concentrations. First, the total absorption spectrum was calculated based on the laboratory-measured reflectance spectrum, and the accuracy of the total absorption spectrum inversion was verified. Then, based on the inverted total absorption spectrum and the constructed absorption spectrum analysis model, the inverted total absorption spectrum was decomposed into chlorophyll, CDOM, and NAP absorption spectra. The sum of the decomposed component spectra was compared with the measured total absorption spectrum to evaluate the spectral analysis accuracy of the absorption spectrum analysis model for the three elements of water color. Finally, the constructed absorption spectrum analysis model was used to solve the concentrations of the three components, and the accuracy of the inverted three-component concentrations was evaluated.

[0139] 2 Analysis of experimental results

[0140] 2.1 Laboratory reflection and absorption spectrum measurement results

[0141] Figure 3 The total absorption coefficients of some simulated water samples under different NAP, chlorophyll a, and CDOM concentration gradients are shown. Figure 3 From left to right, the three parts are: (a) Chlorophyll a is 0.2 μg·L -1 , NAP is 1 mg·L -1 (b) Chlorophyll a is 1 μg·L -1 , NAP is 5 mg·L -1 (c) Chlorophyll a is 10 μg·L -1 , NAP is 20 mg·L -1 .

[0142] Depend on Figure 3It can be seen that the total absorption coefficient at different NAP, chlorophyll a, and CDOM concentration gradients exhibits a nearly exponential decay with increasing wavelength. While NAP and chlorophyll a concentrations remain constant, the total absorption coefficient increases systematically across the entire spectrum with increasing CDOM concentration, with a particularly pronounced increase in the shortwave band. While chlorophyll a and CDOM concentrations remain constant, the total absorption coefficient rises across the entire wavelength range with increasing NAP concentration. While NAP and CDOM concentrations remain constant, the total absorption coefficient also changes with increasing chlorophyll a concentration, with characteristic peaks in the blue and red regions also increasing. However, these changes in absorption morphology are masked by the strong absorption of CDOM and NAP.

[0143] Figure 4 The remote sensing reflectance of some simulated water samples under different NAP, chlorophyll a, and CDOM concentration gradients is shown. Figure 4 From left to right, the three parts are: (a) Chlorophyll a is 0.2 μg·L -1 , NAP is 1 mg·L -1 (b) Chlorophyll a is 1 μg·L -1 , NAP is 5 mg·L -1 (c) Chlorophyll a is 10 μg·L -1 , NAP is 20 mg·L -1 .

[0144] Figure 4 It shows that NAP concentration mainly affects the overall intensity of reflectivity. As NAP concentration increases, its backscattering also increases, R rs CDOM concentration primarily affects the magnitude and spectral slope of remote sensing reflectance in the blue-green band. At fixed background concentrations of NAP and chlorophyll a, as CDOM concentration increases, its strong absorption in the blue-violet region leads to a significant decrease in Rrs in this region and a steeper spectral slope. As chlorophyll a concentration increases, absorption dips appear in the blue (approximately 440 nm) and red (approximately 675 nm) regions. Simultaneously, a reflectance peak appears in the near-infrared band (approximately 700 nm), which increases with increasing chlorophyll a concentration.

[0145] 2.2 Remote sensing reflectance analysis of the three components of water color

[0146] Figure 5 The inversion results of the total absorption spectrum using the deep neural network estimation absorption spectrum model based on the reflectance spectrum are shown. Figure 5From left to right, the three parts are: (a) comparison of the mean of the actual absorption coefficient and the mean of the predicted absorption coefficient; (b) scatter distribution of the actual absorption coefficient and the predicted absorption coefficient based on six typical wavelengths in the training set; (c) scatter distribution of the actual absorption coefficient and the predicted absorption coefficient based on six typical wavelengths in the test set.

[0147] Figure 5 Part (a) shows the comparison between the actual absorption coefficient mean and the predicted absorption coefficient mean in the wavelength range of 250-800nm. Figure 5 Parts (b) and (c) show scatter plots of the predicted and actual values ​​of six typical wavelengths in the training and test sets.

[0148] Depend on Figure 5 As can be seen from part (a), the average absorption spectrum predicted by the model is highly consistent with the actual measured average spectrum over the entire wavelength range of 250-800nm. The standard deviation of the predicted results is also close to the standard deviation of the actual values, which shows that the waveform also has a good ability to predict the degree of dispersion of the data around the mean. Figure 5 From parts (b) and (c), we can see that the predicted coefficients of the six typical wavelengths show good linear correlation with the actual absorption coefficients; the scatter distribution of the training set and the test set is consistent, indicating that the model has no obvious overfitting and has a certain generalization ability.

[0149] Table 1 further shows that at typical wavelengths, the R 2 The RMSE values ​​are generally low, and the RMSE of the test set is close to that of the training set, indicating stable model performance and low prediction error. Overall, the model successfully learns and predicts absorption coefficient spectra, with reliable results and good potential for practical application.

[0151]

[0152] The concentrations of the three water color elements were inverted based on the constructed absorption spectrum analytical model, and the accuracy was verified with the measured concentrations. The results are as follows: Figure 6 shown. Figure 6 From left to right, (a) chlorophyll a concentration; (b) CDOM concentration; (c) NAP (kaolin) concentration are shown. The results show that this method can achieve high-precision inversion of chlorophyll a, CDOM, and NAP concentrations, and the determination coefficient R 2The results were 0.95, 0.97, and 0.99, respectively, and the root mean square error (RMSE) was 0.72 μg·L -1 , 0.25mg·L -1 , 0.72mg·L -1 .
