Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of carbon sink monitoring technology, specifically a precise monitoring system and method for forest carbon sinks based on multi-source data fusion. Background Technology
[0002] Against the backdrop of global warming, forest carbon sinks, as an important component of carbon sequestration in terrestrial ecosystems, play an irreplaceable role in accurately monitoring their value for quantifying ecosystem services, formulating carbon reduction strategies, and promoting the development of carbon trading markets.
[0003] Traditional forest carbon sequestration monitoring methods are mainly divided into ground survey methods and remote sensing monitoring methods.
[0004] The ground survey method involves professionals measuring parameters such as diameter at breast height (DBH), tree height, and crown width of trees in the field, and then calculating carbon storage using a biomass conversion model. Taking a provincial forest resource inventory as an example, a comprehensive ground survey requires hundreds of people and 3-6 months of work, costing millions of yuan. Moreover, due to the limited number of sampling points, it is difficult to cover complex terrain areas and remote forest areas, resulting in significant limitations in the spatial representativeness of the monitoring results.
[0005] Remote sensing monitoring utilizes satellite imagery to acquire forest vegetation information and subsequently estimate carbon sequestration. However, limitations in the spatial resolution of satellite imagery (e.g., Landsat 8 imagery has a resolution of 30 meters) make it difficult to identify individual trees. Furthermore, factors such as clouds, fog, and atmospheric aerosols severely interfere with the quality of remote sensing data, leading to deviations in vegetation index calculations and affecting the accuracy of carbon sequestration estimation. According to relevant research, in the cloudy and rainy forest areas of southern China, the carbon sequestration estimation error using traditional remote sensing monitoring methods can reach as high as 25%-35%.
[0006] Furthermore, most existing monitoring methods rely on a single data source, such as satellite remote sensing data or ground survey data alone. A single data source cannot comprehensively capture the dynamic changes in forest ecosystems, such as vegetation carbon loss caused by forest pests and diseases, and changes in understory carbon storage, making the monitoring results unable to accurately reflect the actual situation of forest carbon sinks. With the gradual improvement of the carbon trading market, higher requirements are placed on the accuracy, timeliness, and reliability of forest carbon sink monitoring. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a technical solution that can integrate multi-source data to achieve precise monitoring. Summary of the Invention
