Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of hydrological and meteorological experimental equipment technology, and in particular to a method for decomposing precipitation error components without the need for ground reference values. Background Technology

[0002] Satellite precipitation products and reanalysis precipitation products provide crucial data support for hydrological simulation, weather forecasting, and climate research in areas lacking surface precipitation data, such as oceans and remote mountainous regions. Before practical application, these precipitation products require refined error interpretation and component decomposition to clarify their error types, magnitudes, and sources, in order to maximize data effectiveness.

[0003] Traditional methods for interpreting precipitation errors heavily rely on surface precipitation observation data as a reference. By comparing the deviations between precipitation products and surface observation data, various error indices are calculated and error components are decomposed to trace the source of errors. However, due to the limitations of the distribution of surface observation stations, most areas of the world (especially oceans, deserts, and plateaus) lack reliable surface precipitation observation data. This makes it impossible for traditional methods to decompose the error components of precipitation products in these data-scarce areas, making it difficult to understand the error characteristics and sources of precipitation products in these regions. This severely limits the depth and breadth of the application of precipitation products.

[0004] To address the problem of interpreting precipitation errors in data-scarce regions, scholars both domestically and internationally have explored the application of the Triple Combination Analysis (TC) method and the generalized triangular hat method. These methods can estimate the total root mean square error (RMSE) of precipitation products without the need for ground reference values. However, they can only obtain the quantitative result of the total RMSE and cannot further decompose the total RMSE into the three core components: the RMSE of the hit precipitation data, the RMSE of the falsely reported precipitation data, and the RMSE of the missed precipitation data. This makes it difficult to achieve accurate error tracing and still cannot meet the need for refined interpretation of precipitation product errors in data-scarce regions.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a method that can achieve full component decomposition and error source tracing of precipitation errors without ground reference values, to make up for the deficiencies of existing technologies, and to provide technical support for the effective application of precipitation products in areas with scarce data. Summary of the Invention

[0006] This invention provides a method for decomposing precipitation error components without ground reference values. By combining a categorical variable fusion algorithm with the generalized triangular hat method, the total root mean square error of precipitation products is decomposed into three error components in the absence of ground precipitation observation data: root mean square error of hit precipitation data, root mean square error of falsely reported precipitation data, and root mean square error of missed precipitation data. This enables error component decomposition and accurate error source tracing of precipitation products in areas with missing data.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0008] This invention provides a method for decomposing precipitation error components without the need for ground reference values, comprising:

[0009] S1: Obtain three independent precipitation products for the target area and unify the spatiotemporal resolution of the precipitation products;

[0010] S2: Using a categorical variable fusion algorithm, without needing ground precipitation data as a reference value, the precipitation product is split into two parts: hit precipitation data and false alarm precipitation data.

[0011] S3: Calculate the total root mean square error of the precipitation product, the root mean square error of the hit precipitation data, and the root mean square error of the false alarm precipitation data using the generalized triangular hat method.

[0012] S4: Based on the error propagation law, the root mean square error of missed precipitation is derived from the total root mean square error, the root mean square error of the hit precipitation data, and the root mean square error of the false precipitation data.

[0013] Furthermore, the spatiotemporal resolution is uniformly set to 0.1° spatial resolution and 1 hour temporal resolution.

[0014] Furthermore, S2 specifically includes:

[0015] Based on the principle of categorical variable fusion algorithm, each precipitation product is converted into a binary time series of rainfall / no rainfall, with a rainfall occurrence flag incremented by 1 and a no rainfall occurrence flag decremented by 1. Three independent sets of rainfall / no rainfall categorical time series are defined as follows: , , Their covariance can be obtained by the following formula:

[0016] (1)

[0017] (2)

[0018] (3)

[0019] Where Q is the covariance of the binary time series with different rainfall / no rainfall conditions; P is the true value of the binary time series with rainfall / no rainfall conditions. A function of the statistical properties of P; To improve the accuracy of rainfall / no rainfall classification for different precipitation products;

[0020] Based on equations (1) to (3), the statistical measure v that is positively correlated with the accuracy of each rainfall / no rainfall classification can be calculated. The specific calculation formula is as follows:

[0021] (4)

[0022] (5)

[0023] (6)

[0024] Based on the obtained positive correlation statistic The three independent precipitation products were weighted and fused to obtain a high-precision precipitation / no-rainfall classification time series. The calculation process is shown below:

[0025] (7)

[0026] (8)

[0027] in, (i=1,2,3) represents the fusion weights for the i-th precipitation product. The optimal time series for classification based on rainfall / no rainfall;

[0028] Three independent time series classifications of rainfall / no rainfall , , Classification time series with optimal rainfall / no rainfall Grid-by-grid comparison over time:

[0029] If there exists a grid point at time t...

[0030] ,and If so, then the data is classified as hit precipitation data;

[0031] ,and If so, the data is classified as false precipitation data;

[0032] ,and If so, the data is classified as underreported precipitation data;

[0033] Since the missed precipitation was 0, the three types of precipitation products with independent errors were divided into two parts: hit precipitation data and false alarm precipitation data.

[0034] Furthermore, S3 specifically includes:

[0035] The generalized triangular hat method is used to calculate the total root mean square error (RMSE) of precipitation products and the root mean square error (RMSE) of hit precipitation data. For the three types of precipitation products / hit precipitation data, the time series of each product / hit precipitation data can be represented as follows:

[0036] (9)

[0037] In the formula, Let i be the time series of the i-th precipitation product / hit precipitation data. For precipitation products / hit precipitation data true values, It represents the error of the i-th precipitation product / hit precipitation data.

[0038] Choose one precipitation product / hit precipitation data as the reference value. The difference between other precipitation products / hit precipitation data can be expressed as:

[0039] (10)

[0040] In the formula, For any selected precipitation product / hit precipitation data, it can be used as a reference value. Error in the reference value precipitation product / hit precipitation data time series;

[0041] Constructing the difference matrix Y, we have:

[0042] (11)

[0043] In the formula, M represents the number of each precipitation product / hit precipitation data;

[0044] The covariance matrix of the difference sequence matrix Y can then be expressed as:

[0045] (12)

[0046] In the formula, S is the covariance matrix. For covariance operators, ,for and The variance (i=j) or covariance (i) between them j);

[0047] Introduce a The covariance matrix R, where R is a symmetric matrix:

[0048] (13)

[0049] In the formula, ,yes and The variance (i=j) or covariance (i) between them j), diagonal elements It is the unknown quantity to be determined;

[0050] At this point, we can construct an expression relating R and S:

[0052] In the formula, It is a submatrix of R with dimension 2. 2; A vector of dimension 2; yes The variance; , I is 2 A unit array of 2; A vector of dimension 2;

[0053] To obtain the root mean square error, we need to solve for the covariance matrix R; R has 3... (3+1) / 2 = 6 unknowns, but only 3 are known. (3-1) / 2 = 3 equations (the number of distinct elements in S), making it impossible to calculate the solution to formula (14); the remaining 3 free parameters need to be uniquely solved by defining an objective function that minimizes it. The defined objective function is expressed as:

[0054] (15)

[0055] In the formula, ;

[0056] To satisfy the condition det(R)>0, the constraint conditions of the objective function (15) can be expressed as:

[0057] (16)

[0058] To ensure that the initial value is within the constraints, the initial value for iteration is set as follows:

[0059] (17)

[0060] (18)

[0061] By minimizing the objective function (15) under constraint (16), the three free parameters can be obtained. The unique solution to ) is given; the other unknowns can be calculated using the following formula:

[0062] (19)

[0063] Calculate the mean square error of each precipitation product / hit precipitation data point by point:

[0064] (20)

[0065] In the formula, Let be the root mean square error of the i-th precipitation product / hit precipitation data; to distinguish, the total root mean square error of the precipitation product is denoted by . The root mean square error of the hit precipitation data is expressed as... ;

[0066] The root mean square error of false precipitation data is calculated by taking the square root of the cumulative sum of squares of the false precipitation amounts. The specific calculation formula is as follows:

[0067] (twenty one)

[0068] Where n is the number of false precipitation data points.

[0069] Furthermore, the specific expression of the error propagation law is as follows:

[0070] (twenty two)

[0071] In the formula, Let be the root mean square error of the i-th missed precipitation data point; based on this, the root mean square error of missed precipitation can be derived, and the specific calculation formula is as follows:

[0072] (twenty three)

[0073] At this point, the underreporting error is solved. .

[0074] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution disclosed in this invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0075] By introducing a categorical variable fusion algorithm, the three independent precipitation products are split into two parts: hit precipitation and false alarm precipitation, without the need for ground reference values. Then, the generalized triangular hat method is used to calculate the total root mean square error (RMSE) of the three precipitation products (unsplit data) and the RMSE of the split hit precipitation data, as well as the RMSE of the split false alarm precipitation data. Finally, the false alarm error is derived using the error propagation law. Thus, the method of this invention completes the decomposition of precipitation error components without the need for ground reference values, achieving precise characterization of error source tracing and its spatial distribution. This solves the problem that traditional error interpretation methods rely on ground precipitation data as a reference value, making it impossible to interpret the error components of precipitation products in areas with scarce ground precipitation data, thus hindering error source tracing.
