The invention relates to the technical field of ocean
remote sensing image processing, and discloses an internal solitary wave amplitude inversion method based on SWOT
observation data, which comprises the following steps of: acquiring
sea surface height abnormal data of an SWOT
satellite Ka-band
radar interferometer L3, performing preprocessing, and performing adaptive
noise filtering, maximum between-class
variance method enhancement and morphological
edge detection respectively; overlapping analysis is carried out, and pixel points which are all judged to be effective are reserved to serve as
sea surface height abnormal data of internal solitary
wave disturbance; inverting the first-order amplitude of the internal solitary wave; introducing a non-
linear term in the extended KdV equation, and carrying out non-linear correction on the vertical
modal function; and performing inversion to obtain the high-order amplitude of the internal solitary wave. According to the method disclosed by the invention, real and effective internal solitary
wave disturbance information can be extracted as an input source of amplitude inversion, so that accurate inversion of the large-amplitude internal solitary wave is realized, and the technical potential of an SWOT
satellite in quantitative research and practical application of the internal solitary wave is expanded.
