Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of carbon cycle monitoring technology, and more specifically to a method and system for assessing watershed carbon storage and transport based on a tree growth model. Background Technology
[0002] Tree growth and death have a significant impact on watershed carbon cycling, which in turn directly influences global climate change. Domestic and international watershed carbon transport assessment methods primarily employ sample plot inventory and volumetric methods. These methods often require on-site sampling and measurement, incurring substantial costs, and are difficult to implement long-term simulations of watershed carbon transport. From a methodological perspective, the InVEST model is an important method for carbon transport assessment, while land use simulation models such as CA-Markov, FLUS, MCE, GeoSOS, and PLUS are widely used multi-scenario prediction models. These models typically achieve accuracy in assessing watershed carbon transport through extensive and repetitive parameter adjustments, often requiring researchers with deep professional knowledge and model-building experience. They cannot provide accurate and rapid assessments of watershed carbon transport, and these models also lack the ability to integrate multi-source data.
[0003] With the deepening implementation of the dual-carbon strategy, the dynamic changes and transport processes of carbon storage in watersheds, as an important component of terrestrial ecosystems, have become a research hotspot in the field of ecological environment. Watershed carbon storage is not only affected by biogeochemical processes such as vegetation growth and soil respiration, but also closely related to runoff changes caused by water resource allocation. Trees, as the main carbon sink carriers in watershed ecosystems, directly determine the efficiency of carbon fixation and accumulation through their growth process. Tree rings, as natural recorders of tree growth, can objectively reflect the coupling relationship between tree growth and environmental factors on a long-term scale.
[0004] However, existing methods for assessing carbon storage in watersheds have several limitations: First, most methods ignore the dynamic relationship between tree growth and carbon transport, estimating carbon storage solely through static biomass accounting, making it difficult to quantify the impact of changes in tree growth rate on carbon transport; second, multi-source data fusion employs a fixed-weight strategy, which cannot adapt to the dynamic changes in data importance under different environmental conditions, resulting in insufficient data fusion accuracy; third, carbon transport models often focus on single environmental factors, failing to fully consider the carbon migration and diffusion mechanisms driven by runoff, and their complexity is too high, making it difficult to achieve rapid assessment by combining satellite remote sensing data; fourth, carbon transport prediction under unified water resource management scenarios lacks targeted model support, failing to provide accurate basis for watershed ecological protection and carbon emission reduction decisions.
[0005] Therefore, how to propose a watershed carbon storage and transport assessment method and system based on tree growth models to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

During training, the model performance is monitored in real time using the validation set, and an early stopping strategy is adopted to prevent overfitting.
