Description

Surface soil moisture retrieval method based on passive microwave remote sensing data
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of remote sensing surface soil moisture content inversion, in particular to a surface soil moisture inversion method based on passive microwave remote sensing data.
Background
The soil water is an unsaturated water body in the soil layer, is widely distributed on the surface layer of the land and is a necessary water source for plant growth, so that the soil water resource is an important resource related to the agricultural production quality; meanwhile, the soil water resource is a link for interconversion of surface water and underground water, can enter the atmosphere in a evapotranspiration mode, and is supplemented in the soil surface layer in a precipitation mode, so that the soil water resource is a core factor in surface energy exchange and is also an important carrier composition for surface material energy circulation in the world. The global-scale soil water resource distribution state is an important basis for balancing and evaluating the earth surface evapotranspiration mode (vegetation growth) and the precipitation mode (ecosystem quality), and is also basic data for researching the hydrological characteristics and climate change in a region. Under the large background of global climate warming, global-scale soil moisture distribution data has become one of the indispensable guarantees of scientists to study global climate and hydrological environmental changes and to build a reasonable global climate response model. On the basis, the establishment of the global sustainable development policy is supported by more scientific basis. The global soil moisture data set is the data set that is currently the most spatial scale macroscopic in studies on soil moisture. The traditional soil moisture monitoring method mainly comprises the step of acquiring a real-time surface soil moisture content value through a manual observation or automatic station observation means at a meteorological station. However, such observation means is not only time-consuming and labor-consuming, but also suffers from the disadvantage that the measured soil moisture content value is not spatially representative enough. Firstly, the measurement data only represents the average level of the soil moisture content in the range of less than 10cm in the horizontal direction pointed by a single measurement point probe; secondly, due to the huge station building observation cost and the complexity of the geographical environment which is difficult to control on a global scale, soil moisture observation stations which have consistent observation specifications and sufficient quantity and are uniformly distributed in all regions of seven continents cannot be obtained almost certainly in the global scope to meet the requirements of observation cartography. With the progress of science and technology, the acquisition of satellite remote sensing data and the research of a satellite remote sensing soil moisture inversion method effectively make up for the disadvantages of space continuity and observation cost of soil moisture data observed by using sites, and make it possible to acquire near-real-time earth surface soil moisture content distribution images with high space-time resolution by using the satellite remote sensing data.
Under the background, the large-space-scale soil moisture inversion research based on satellite remote sensing is developed from the seventies of the twentieth century by the countries in the united states and the european union successively to meet the requirements of monitoring and applying the soil moisture distribution on the national scale, the continent scale and the global scale. The microwave remote sensing data has good penetrability to cloud layers and vegetation canopies, and is an ideal data source for monitoring soil moisture change information. Common microwave remote sensing data includes microwave radiometer data sets and microwave scatterometer (radar) data sets. The mechanism of inverting the earth surface soil moisture by receiving data through the microwave scatterometer is complex, the data resolution ratio is too high, so that the occupied space is large, the cost is high, the processing steps are complex, and the inversion process has strict and accurate requirements on the earth surface auxiliary parameters, so that the application cost of the data is integrally high. The microwave radiometer belongs to a passive microwave technology, has high global coverage of data, is easy to obtain, and is suitable for monitoring the soil moisture on the earth surface of a large area. The microwave radiometer comprises data sets of two modes of ascending and descending, wherein the revisit period of each mode of data set in the middle and low latitude areas is 1-3 days (generally 1-2 days in most areas in China), and the high time resolution ensures that the near real-time monitoring of the space change of the soil moisture on the earth surface can be achieved for 1-2 times per day. The spatial resolution of the data set is generally in the range of 10-60km, and generally speaking, the spatial resolution range reaches a perfect balance between the spatial mapping precision and the data complexity degree in the relatively macroscopic global scale research.
The principle of inverting the earth surface soil moisture by using the microwave remote sensing technology is mainly developed by taking a radiation transmission model of passive microwaves as a main mathematical and physical basis by means of microwave signals of lower frequency bands, such as X-band, C-band and L-band, extremely strong penetration capacity to the atmosphere and vegetation layer and characterization capacity to the soil-water mixture dielectric constant in soil. Based on the above principle, many different passive microwave soil moisture inversion algorithms can be developed and widely applied in different fields and scales worldwide. The Land Parameter Recovery Model (LPRM), proposed by Amsterdam, the Netherlands, is one of the classical algorithms in this field, which was first proposed for the X-and C-bands (M.Owe, R.deJeu, and T.Holmes, "Multisensor horizontal restriction of local-vertical floor movement," Journal of geographic Research-Earth Surface, vol.113, pp.196-199, Jan 182008), and was promoted in recent studies to the L-band (R.van der Schalie, R.M.Parinsause, L.J.Renllo, A.I.J.M.van. j.j.van. j.j.j.v., C.H.Aurea, R.M.M.M.P.and R.Aurea-Earth Surface penetration, "calcium dioxide Model, M.32, calcium dioxide, calcium oxide. Compared with other similar products in different research areas or watershed ranges all over the world, the soil moisture product inverted by the LPRM algorithm has quite a lot of research, and most of the skills consider that the soil moisture product inverted by the LPRM algorithm has higher overall precision and wider application value.
At present, soil moisture inversion products with the resolution of 25km of an X-wave band and a C-wave band based on an LPRM algorithm and an AMSR-E/AMSR2 passive microwave radiometer are released to the world for free by NASA (American space and space administration), and a standard LPRM algorithm used by the set of products strictly screens the earth surface environment when inverting the soil moisture. Wherein, the pixels of the 25km pixels containing more than a certain area (more than or equal to 5 percent of the pixel area) of the river and lake underlay surface are not inverted. Thus, the overall accuracy of the global inversion is improved, but the global effective land coverage ratio of the set of data products is reduced to a certain extent, and the application of the products in the global range is limited, particularly in tropical and subtropical areas with wet earth surfaces and more rivers and lakes.

Tb(p,f)=Ts[ta(f)e(p,f)+(1-ta(f))δ](5)
wherein, Tb(p,f)Represents the brightness temperature of a certain channel, p represents vertical (V) polarization or horizontal (H) polarization, and f represents 18.7GHz or 23.8 GHz; t issRepresenting the average effective surface temperature to be solved, and delta represents the ratio of the atmospheric air/surface temperature;
the K wave band is 18GHz and 23.8GHz, the 18GHz wave band comprises two channels of vertical (V) polarization and horizontal (H) polarization, and each channel corresponds to brightness temperature data; the 18GHz wave band comprises two channels of vertical (V) polarization and horizontal (H) polarization, and each channel corresponds to brightness temperature data; respectively substituting brightness temperature data of four channels into an inversion formula (5) to obtain 4 equations, and solving 4 unknowns Ts、Awv、tc、ffws
The microwave bright temperature polarization difference index (MPDI) of the X wave band is constructed by utilizing the vertical and horizontal polarization bright temperature data of the X wave band, and the prior art can be specifically adopted.
In the step 3), the average effective temperature of the earth surface and the microwave bright temperature polarization difference index (MPDI) of the X wave band are substituted into a mathematical model of the soil dielectric constant and a microwave radiation transmission model, and the vegetation optical thickness and the soil dielectric constant are solved by a least square method, wherein the prior art can be specifically adopted.
The mathematical model of MPDI regarding the dielectric constant of the soil in the LPRM method (A.G.C.A.Meestizers, R.A.M.De Jeu, and M.Owe, "analytical engineering of the transformation optical depth from the microwaveable polarization orientation index," ie Geoscience and removal Sensing Letters, vol.2, pp.121-123, Apr 2005.), and the microwave radiation transmission model of the X-band horizontally polarized bright temperature (E.G.Njoku. 1999).
And 4) substituting the soil dielectric constant obtained by calculation in the step 3) into a soil moisture content inversion model to calculate the earth surface soil moisture content, wherein the prior art can also be adopted. The final result of the surface soil moisture content can be further solved using the soil composition information and the soil dielectric constant values obtained by inversion according to a soil moisture content inversion model (m.c. dobson, f.t.ula by, m.t.hallikainen, and m.a.electrodes, "Microwave dielectric floor of soil oil.2.dielectric mixing models," IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and remove Sensing, vol.23, pp.35-46,1985.).
The method of the invention follows most procedures of the open-ended LPRM algorithm, and the LRPM algorithm uses Ka (37GHz) wave band to invert the average effective temperature of the earth surface, and the method is from Holmes et al (T.R.H.Holmes, R.A.M.De Jeu, M.Owe, and A.J.Dolman, "Land surface temperature from Ka band (37GHz) passive microwave environments," Journal of geographic Research-Atmospheres, vol.114, Feb 252009.). The difference lies in that in the step 2, two wave bands of 18GHz and 23.8GHz are adopted as K wave bands, and the calculation is combined with a specific formula, and verification shows that the error of the prior LRPM algorithm under the multi-water-surface subsurface is larger, but the inversion method of the K wave band used in the improved algorithm greatly weakens the error, and further, the soil moisture inversion result with higher precision can be obtained.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages:
aiming at the multi-water surface environment, the LPRM surface soil moisture retrieval method based on passive microwave remote sensing satellite data is improved, the improved core lies in replacing the surface average effective temperature retrieval method which is not suitable for the condition into a more suitable algorithm, and the method has the advantages that:
the improved surface effective average temperature algorithm overcomes the inversion error caused by using an empirical formula when the parameter is inverted by the original method. The original inversion method (Ka-band inversion method) [14 and 15] utilizes the high numerical correlation between the surface effective average temperature of the pure land surface and the Ka-band vertical polarization brightness temperature to construct an empirical formula so as to complete the inversion of the surface effective average temperature, but in fact, the empirical formula is not suitable for the multi-water surface. In the improved algorithm, the K wave band algorithm of the replaced Ka wave band method can be well suitable for the multi-water surface. Because the effective average temperature of the earth surface is a fixed input parameter for inverting the soil moisture in the LPRM algorithm, the inversion accuracy of the LPRM algorithm on the moisture content of the earth surface under the multi-water earth surface environment can be well improved, the inversion accuracy of large-scale (such as global scale) passive microwave soil moisture data under the multi-water earth surface environment of a high-humidity region can be further improved, and the application feasibility of the large-scale passive microwave soil moisture data is improved.

Detailed Description
Step 1, collecting and arranging a passive microwave bright temperature data set (passive microwave bright temperature data set) and a ground soil component distribution data set (soil texture data set); and preprocessing to obtain a microwave brightness-temperature distribution map of each waveband with the resolution of 25km and a corresponding soil component distribution map. The microwave brightness temperature data comprises: vertical and horizontal polarized light temperature data of the X band, and vertical and horizontal polarized light temperature data of the K band (18GHz and 23.8 GHz); the microwave brightness temperature Data collected by the invention is an AMSR-E/AMSR2L2A track-by-track storage brightness temperature Data set provided by NASA (network site: NASA's Earth infrastructure Data and Information System). The AMSR-E data set time range is from 5 months in 2002 to 9 months in 2011; the time of the AMSR2 data set was from month 7 to month 2012. The storage format of the split-track dataset includes 243 rows × 1797 columns of observation stamps (stamps: translated from footprint) for each track file. The sampling interval was 10 km. The average sampling method is adopted here, and all observation imprints in the same track mode on the same day are resampled to be under the corresponding grid of 25km scale. Namely, averaging the brightness temperature values of all observation marks of different track files meeting the requirement that the geometric center position falls within the pixel geographic range of the same grid, and then taking the average as the brightness temperature value of the grid resampling.
The soil composition data includes surface clay and sand content, and soil volume weight parameters. The invention collects soil component data provided by a 'Soilgrid 1 km' database (website: https:// Soilgrids. org /). The invention uses the soil average index data map layer of the surface soil (within the range of 0-5 cm) in the database. And adopting an average value sampling method to resample the soil component data with the resolution of 1km to 25 km.
And 2, calculating the average effective temperature of the earth surface by using the K-waveband brightness temperature data in the step 1, wherein the brightness temperature values of four waveband channels (18GHz-V,18GHz-H,23GHz-V,23GHz-H, -V and-H respectively represent a vertical polarization mode and a horizontal polarization mode) are used in the step. And each channel obtains an equation, and the final four-formula equation set is solved through iteration to obtain parameters to be solved, namely the average effective temperature of the earth surface, and other three unknown parameters including the effective moisture content (unit: millimeter) of the atmosphere, the vegetation transmittance and the pure water area ratio (FWS) of the earth surface pixels. The specific inversion formula is:
Tb(p,f)=Ts[ta(f)e(p,f)+(1-ta(f))δ](5)
wherein T isb(p,f)Represents the light temperature, T, of a certain channel (p represents V polarization or H polarization, and f represents 18.7GHz or 23.8GHz)sRepresenting the average surface effective temperature to be determined, and δ represents the ratio of atmospheric/land temperature.
Calculating the intermediate value tau by equation (1)a(f)Theta is the satellite observation angle of incidence, AoAs a parameter of the oxygen content of the atmosphere, AwvThe content of atmospheric water vapor to be solved;
τa(f)=sec(θ)[Ao+Awv](1)
calculating the intermediate value t by the formula (2)a(f)
ta(f)=exp(-τa(f))(2)
Calculating the intermediate value e by equation (3)bl(p,f),tcIs on demandUnknown quantity, eos(p,f)The emissivity of the dry bare land is shown, and omega represents the vegetation scattering rate;
ebl(p,f)=tceos(p,f)+(1-tc)(1-ω)(3);
calculating the intermediate value e by equation (4)(p,f),ffwsFor the unknowns to be solved, ew(p,f)The emissivity of the water surface is represented, and omega represents vegetation scattering rate;
e(p,f)=ffwsew(p,f)+(1-ffws)ebl(p,f)(4)
calculating the average effective temperature of the earth surface by taking a K wave band as an inversion wave band and calculating a middle value t by a formula (2)a(f)And the intermediate value e calculated by equation (4)(p,f)Substituting into inversion equation (5):
the K wave band is 18GHz and 23.8GHz, the 18GHz wave band comprises two channels of vertical (V) polarization and horizontal (H) polarization, and each channel corresponds to brightness temperature data; the 18GHz wave band comprises two channels of vertical (V) polarization and horizontal (H) polarization, and each channel corresponds to brightness temperature data; respectively substituting brightness temperature data of four channels into an inversion formula (5) to obtain 4 equations, and solving 4 unknowns Ts、Awv、tc、ffws. The construction equation forms a nonlinear equation system consisting of four equations and four unknowns to be solved. Solving the equation set can obtain the average effective temperature T of the earth surfaces
Then, the microwave brightness temperature polarization difference index (MPDI) of the X wave band is constructed by utilizing the horizontal and vertical polarization data of the X wave band,

wherein T isH-XAnd TV-XRespectively representing the horizontal and vertical polarization brightness temperature of the X band.
Step 3, using a relation model of the lpdi and the soil dielectric constant in the LPRM method, an lpdi Function1(k, τ) can be obtained according to the relation model. Where Function1 represents a generalized nonlinear Function for this relationship model, k and τ represent the soil dielectric constant and vegetation optical thickness, respectively.
An equation Function2 of vegetation optical thickness tau and soil dielectric constant k with respect to X-wave band on-satellite observation horizontal polarization brightness temperature, namely T, is established by utilizing a microwave radiation transmission model of X-wave band horizontal polarization brightness temperatureH-XFunction2(k, τ). And constructing a binary nonlinear equation system by using Function1 and Function2, and solving k and tau by using a Jacobian iteration method or a Newton steepest descent method.
And 4, expressing the soil dielectric constant as a nonlinear function of the soil water content and the soil components according to a soil water content inversion model (referred to as a Dobson model), namely tau is a Dobson (SSM, clay, sand, bulk density). SSM represents surface soil moisture content, clay, sand, bulk density represent percent soil aggregate, percent sand, and soil bulk weight, respectively, these three parameters being provided by the "Soilgrid 1 km" database. Therefore, a unitary nonlinear function of tau relative to the water content of the surface soil can be obtained, and the function is solved in a Jacobian iteration mode, so that the final target parameter, namely the water content of the surface soil can be obtained.
And 5, verifying the precision. In the embodiment of the invention, a river-Huai region with a multi-water surface is used as an experimental research area, soil moisture observation values of time points which are closest to the satellite transit time and are observed by 54 automatic soil moisture observation stations in the experimental research area are subjected to precision verification and evaluation, and the date range of the used data is 3/1/2010 to 9/2010 and 30/2010.
The basic basis of the precision evaluation is the RMSE between the microwave soil moisture and the observed value of the soil moisture of the station and the magnitude of a correlation coefficient. Because the station and the microwave data have the difference in dimension originally, the dimension conversion needs to be carried out on the microwave soil water content data before comparison, namely the microwave soil water content data is subjected to dimension conversion

Theta'AMSRFor AMSR-E microwave inversion after scale conversionSoil moisture content, s and m represent the standard deviation and mean of each data set, respectively.
According to the inverted surface pixel pure water surface area ratio index FWS in the third step, pixels to be subjected to precision evaluation are divided into four types, namely FWS <0.05,0.05< ═ FWS <0.15,0.15< ═ FWS <0.25 and 0.25< - > FWS <0.5, in each type of pixels, soil moisture content obtained by the improved LPRM algorithm and the inversion of the original LPRM algorithm is subjected to precision evaluation by using RMSE and R respectively, and the results are shown in Table 1. Meanwhile, fig. 2 shows a scatter diagram of soil moisture inversion values obtained by the two algorithms with respect to the earth surface station observed values.
TABLE 1
Figure BDA0001737325760000101
The results shown in table 1 and fig. 2 show that the improved soil moisture inversion method compared to the original LPRM algorithm is comparable in accuracy to the original algorithm in drier surface environments (FWS < 0.05). However, as the pure water surface area ratio of the earth surface increases, i.e., when FWS >0.05, the RMSE value of the soil moisture data inverted with respect to the modified algorithm is significantly less than that of the data inverted with respect to the original algorithm, while the corresponding correlation coefficient value R of the former is also significantly higher than that of the latter. The precision evaluation result also shows that the inversion precision of the improved algorithm is higher in the interval of FWS <0.25 than in the interval of FWS > 0.25. In conclusion, the inversion accuracy of soil moisture under the condition of the surface of the watery ground by passive microwave inversion is effectively improved.
