Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of GNSS hydrogeometry and geophysical inversion technology, specifically involving a method for the collaborative inversion of land water storage by integrating hydrological models and sparse GNSS data. Background Technology

[0002] Terrestrial water storage (TWS) is a key state quantity in the global water cycle, and its spatiotemporal variations are closely related to climate variability, droughts and floods, water resource regulation, cryosphere evolution, and the load response of the solid Earth. In addition to the monthly mass variations provided by the GRACE / GRACE-FO satellite gravity data, the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), by measuring three-dimensional displacement of the Earth's surface, especially vertical displacement, can record elastic deformation caused by hydrological loads from another observational dimension, providing a powerful supplement to regional to watershed-scale hydrological monitoring.

[0003] However, due to the sparse and uneven distribution of GNSS networks, incomplete data acquisition, or insufficient openness, the extraction of hydrological signals relying solely on GNSS faces multiple difficulties: (1) Insufficient spatial sampling and interpolation errors: The sparse and uneven distribution of stations leads to unstable spatial reconstruction, and conventional inverse distance, spline, or kriging interpolation significantly amplifies errors at boundaries, in the window area, and in high gradient regions. (2) Mixing of non-hydrological components: GNSS displacement sequences contain multiple sources of interference, such as tectonic deformation, thermoelastic effects of equipment and base, atmospheric and oceanic loads, jumps, and drifts. If only simple trend / seasonal decomposition and low-order filtering are used, it is difficult to cleanly separate and maintain the physical consistency of hydrological signals. (3) Window periods and missing measurements: Intermittent missing measurements at stations, extreme weather / equipment interruptions, and the alternation of old and new stations lead to discontinuities in the time axis, making traditional batch processing methods prone to breakpoints and boundary effects.

[0004] To address this, researchers considered combining prior models with GNSS station data for more accurate hydrological monitoring. However, commonly used hydrological models, such as the Water-Global Analysis and Prognosis Model (WGHM) and the Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS), are susceptible to strong uncertainties caused by precipitation, evapotranspiration, soil parameters, and human activities, leading to prior model bias. Furthermore, the model resolution differs from the representative scale of GNSS stations, and direct difference between the GNSS and the model easily introduces prior bias into the hydrological estimation results. Additionally, TWS exhibits significant seasonal-interannual-multi-interannual amplitude and phase drift, demonstrating spatial heterogeneity and temporal non-stationarity. Filtering / interpolation with fixed windows or parameters can easily result in underfitting or oversmoothing.

[0005] Furthermore, existing hydrological monitoring methods often present a "single optimal field," lacking pixel-level error bands and sensitivity analysis to prior / weight selection, making it difficult to quantify risks in operational applications and decision-making. Direct global optimization of the inverse problem combining GNSS and hydrological priors faces bottlenecks in computation and convergence stability; a robust engineering framework for rapid iteration and local updates is also lacking. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The present invention aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems existing in the related art.

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems of sparse GNSS stations, mixed non-hydrological components, biases in prior models, and difficulty in quantifying uncertainties. It provides a collaborative inversion method for land water storage that integrates hydrological models and sparse GNSS data. The method uses GNSS vertical displacement denoising residuals as observations, establishes a "mass-deformation" mapping using the load Green's function, and uses TWS and raster as state variables. It adaptively balances data consistency, spatial smoothness, and prior shrinkage, obtaining high-fidelity TWS and deformation fields through residual backfeedback and iterative solution, and providing pixel-level uncertainties.

[0012] S4. Using the rasterized terrestrial water storage as the state variable, establish a linear observation equation and construct a joint objective function that includes a data consistency term, a spatial smoothing term, and a priori shrinkage term.

[0013] S5. Using the initial land water storage as the initial field, the joint objective function is solved by residual recharge and gradient-type iterative algorithm. In each iteration, deformation prediction, residual calculation, residual space interpolation and state variable update are performed sequentially until the convergence condition is met, and the final land water storage is obtained.
