These threats are mostly related to human activities. Earth observations (EO) are increasingly used for monitoring forest cover, especially synthetic aperture radar (SAR), that is less affected than optical sensors by atmospheric conditions. Since the launch of the Sentinel-1 satellites, numerous methods for forest disturbance monitoring have been developed, including near real-time (NRT) operational algorithms as systems providing early warnings on deforestation. These systems include Radar for Detecting Deforestation (RADD), Global Land Analysis and Discovery (GLAD), Real Time Deforestation Detection System (DETER), and Jica-Jaxa Forest Early Warning System (JJ-FAST). These algorithms provide online disturbance maps and are applied at continental/global scales with a Minimum Mapping Unit (MMU) ranging from 0.1 ha to 6.25 ha. For local operators, these algorithms are hard to customize to meet users’ specific needs. Recently, the Cumulative sum change detection (CuSum) method has been developed for the monitoring of forest disturbances from long time series of Sentinel-1 images. Here, we present the development of a NRT version of CuSum with a MMU of 0.03 ha. The values of the different parameters of this NRT CuSum algorithm were determined to optimize the detection of changes using the F1-score. In the best configuration, 68% precision, 72% recall, 93% accuracy and 0.71 F1-score were obtained.","PeriodicalId":198378,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141799228","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

OASs and IOPs can be derived from atmospheric correction processors’ in-water algorithms applied to data from Sentinel-2 MultiSpectral Instrument (S2 MSI) and Sentinel-3 Ocean and Land Color Instrument (S3 OLCI). This study compared S3 OLCI Level-2 in-water products for Case-2 waters with alternative in-water algorithms derived from ACOLITE, POLYMER, C2RCC, and A4O. Fifty in-water algorithms were evaluated using an extensive match-up dataset from lakes and coastal areas, focusing particularly on small lakes with high colored dissolved organic matter absorption at 442 nm (up to 48 m-1). The Chl a band ratio introduced by Gons et al. (2022) applied to data processed by ACOLITE performed best for S3 OLCI Chl a retrieval (dispersion = 23%, bias = 10%). Gons et al. (2022) band ratio also showed consistent agreement between S3 OLCI and S2 MSI resampled data (intercept of 6.27 and slope of 0.83, close to the 1:1 line); however, lower Chl a values (<20 mg/m3) were overestimated by S2 MSI. When estimating errors associated with proximity to land, S2 MSI Chl a in-water algorithms had higher errors close to the shore (on average 315%) compared to S3 OLCI (on average 150%). Chl a retrieved with POLYMER had the lowest errors close to the shore for both S2 MSI and S3 OLCI data (on average 70%). Total suspended matter (TSM) retrieval with C2RCC performed well for S2 MSI (dispersion 24% and bias −12%). Total absorption was most accurately derived from C2RCC applied to S3 OLCI L1 data (dispersion < 43% and bias < −39%), and it was better estimated than its individual components: phytoplankton, mineral particles, and colored dissolved organic matter absorption.

This study addresses retrieval algorithm development and the evaluation of the potential impact of instrumental and environmental uncertainties on sea level pressure retrievals for the measurements of O2 differential absorption radar systems operating at three spectrally evenly spaced close-frequency bands (65.5, 67.75, and 70.0 GHz). A simulated northern hemispheric summer case is used to simulate retrieval uncertainties. To avoid high attenuation and a low signal-to-noise ratio, radar measurements from weather conditions with a rain rate ≥1 mm/h are not used in the retrieval. This study finds that a retrieval algorithm combining all three channels, i.e., the 3-channel approach, can effectively mitigate major atmospheric and sea surface influences on sea surface air pressure retrieval. The major uncertainty of sea surface pressure retrieval is due to the standard deviation in radar power returns. Analysis and simulation demonstrate the potential of global sea surface pressure observations with errors of about 1∼2 mb, which is urgently needed for the improvement of numerical weather prediction models. Future work will emphasize instrument development and field experiments. It is anticipated that an O2 differential absorption radar system will be available for meteorological applications in a few years.","PeriodicalId":198378,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141809744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This has led to the development of two probabilistic NN-algorithms: Mixture Density Network (MDN) and Bayesian Neural Network via Monte Carlo Dropout (BNN-MCD). These NNs are complex, featuring thousands of trainable parameters and modifiable hyper-parameters, and have been independently trained and tested. The model uncertainty metric captures the uncertainty present in each prediction based on the properties of the model—namely, the model architecture and the training data distribution. We conduct an analysis of MDN and BNN-MCD under near-identical conditions of model architecture, training, and test sets, etc., to retrieve the concentration of chlorophyll-a pigments (Chl a), total suspended solids (TSS), and the absorption by colored dissolved organic matter at 440 nm (acdom (440)). The spectral resolutions considered correspond to the Hyperspectral Imager for the Coastal Ocean (HICO), PRecursore IperSpettrale della Missione Applicativa (PRISMA), Ocean Colour and Land Imager (OLCI), and MultiSpectral Instrument (MSI). The model performances are tested in terms of both predictive residuals and predictive uncertainty metric quality. We also compared the simultaneous WQI retrievals against a single-parameter retrieval framework (for Chla). Ultimately, the models’ real-world applicability was investigated using a MSI satellite-matchup dataset N=3,053) of Chla and TSS. Experiments show that both models exhibit comparable estimation performance. Specifically, the median symmetric accuracy (MdSA) on the test set for the different parameters in both algorithms range from 30% to 60%. The uncertainty estimates, on the other hand, differ strongly. MDN’s uncertainty estimate is ∼50%, encompassing estimation residuals for 75% of test samples, whereas BNN-MCD’s average uncertainty estimate is ∼25%, encompassing the residuals for 50% of samples. Our analysis also revealed that simultaneous estimation results in improvements in both predictive performance and uncertainty metric quality. Interestingly, the trends mentioned above hold across different sensor resolutions, as well as experimental regimes. This disparity calls for additional research to determine whether such trends in model uncertainty are inherent to specific models or can be more broadly generalized across different algorithms and sensor setups.","PeriodicalId":198378,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141827079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The float-based radiometric sampling system, herein referred to as HyperNav, is complementary to traditional moored in-situ observing systems and provides additional capability due to the relatively small platform size and high radiometric accuracy that allows for opportunistic deployments at locations during seasons and conditions that are best for ocean color observations. The purpose of this study is to optimize the deployment locations of an array of HyperNav systems to support the Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem (PACE) mission by performing System Vicarious Calibration (SVC) observations. Specifically, we present the development of logistical and scientific criteria for selecting suitable sites for developing an SVC network of profiling-float-based radiometric systems capable of calibrating and validating ocean color observations. As part of the analyses described in this paper, we have synthetically deployed HyperNav at potential US-based and international sites, including: north of Crete island; south-east of Bermuda island; south of Puerto Rico island; southwest of Port Hueneme, CA; west of Monterey, CA; west of Kona, HI; and south-west of Tahiti island. The synthetic analyses identified Kona, Puerto Rico, Crete, and Tahiti as promising SVC sites. All sites considered are suitable for generating a significant number of validation match-ups. Optimally deploying HyperNav systems at these sites during the PACE post-launch SVC campaign is expected to cost-effectively provide a large number of SVC match-ups to fulfill the PACE calibration requirements.","PeriodicalId":198378,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141828137","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Validating datasets in this situation is not a trivial task because every observing system has its own bias and noise. Triple collocation is a general statistical framework to estimate the error characteristics in three or more observational-based datasets. In a triple colocation analysis, several metrics are routinely reported but traditional multiple-panel plots are not the most effective way to display information. A new formula of error variance is derived for connecting the key terms in the triple collocation theory. A diagram based on this formula is devised to facilitate triple collocation analysis of any data from observations, as illustrated using three aerosol optical depth datasets from the recent Aerosol Cloud meTeorology Interactions oVer the western ATlantic Experiment (ACTIVATE). An observational-based skill score is also derived to evaluate the quality of three datasets by taking into account both error variance and correlation coefficient.

The top-of-atmosphere radiance measured by these satellites is usually converted to bottom-of-atmosphere radiance or reflectance which is then used for deriving numerous higher level products used for monitoring environmental conditions, climate change, stock of natural resources, etc. The increase of available remote sensing data impacts decision-making on both regional and global scales, and demands appropriate quality control and validation procedures. A HYperspectral Pointable System for Terrestrial and Aquatic Radiometry (HYPSTAR®) has been designed to provide automated, in-situ multiangular reflectance measurements of land and water targets. HYPSTAR-SR covers 380–1020 nm spectral range at 3 nm spectral resolution and is used at water sites. For land sites the HYPSTAR-XR variant is used with the spectral range extended to 1680 nm at 10 nm spectral resolution. The spectroradiometer has multiplexed radiance and irradiance entrances, an internal mechanical shutter, and an integrated imaging camera for capturing snapshots of the targets. The spectroradiometer is mounted on a two-axis pointing system with 360° range of free movement in both axes. The system also incorporates a stable light emitting diode as a light source, used for monitoring the stability of the radiometric calibration during the long-term unattended field deployment. Autonomous operation is managed by a host system which handles data acquisition, storage, and transmission to a central WATERHYPERNET or LANDHYPERNET server according to a pre-programmed schedule. The system is remotely accessible over the internet for configuration changes and software updates. The HYPSTAR systems have been deployed at 10 water and 11 land sites for different periods ranging from a few days to a few years. The data are automatically processed at the central servers by the HYPERNETS processor and the derived radiance, irradiance, and reflectance products with associated measurement uncertainties are distributed at the WATERHYPERNET and LANDHYPERNET data portals.","PeriodicalId":198378,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141644065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The combination of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) mode altimetry (SRAL instrument) from Sentinel-3A and Sentinel-3B, and the Ocean and Land Colour Instrument (OLCI) imaging spectrometer, results in the creation of the first satellite platform that offers coincident optical imagery and SAR radar altimetry.

This surface classification is an important step for estimating sea ice thickness and to predict future sea ice changes in the Arctic and Antarctic regions. We propose the use of Vision Transformers (ViT), an approach adapting the popular deep learning algorithm Transformer, for this task.

Subsequently, many scientific communities have emphasized a need for high-accuracy and spatial resolution profiles of water vapor within and above the planetary boundary layer (PBL). Advancements in lidar technologies at the NASA Langley Research Center are ongoing to enable the first space-based water vapor differential absorption lidar (DIAL) that can provide high-accuracy and vertical resolution retrievals of moisture in the PBL and through the mid-troposphere. The performance of this space-based DIAL is assessed here for sensitivity throughout the troposphere and globally with representative canonical cases of water vapor and aerosol loading. The specific humidity retrieval sensitivity to systematic and random errors is assessed, and measurement resolutions and capabilities are provided. We show that tunable operation along the side of the 823-nm absorption line allows for the optimization of the lower-tropospheric water vapor retrievals across different meteorological regimes and latitudes and provides the operational flexibility needed to dynamically optimize random errors for different scientific applications. The analysis presented here suggests that baseline and threshold systematic error requirements of <1.5% and <2.5%, respectively, are achievable. Random error is shown to dominate the retrieval, with errors on the order of 5% within the PBL being achievable with 300-m vertical 50-km horizontal resolutions over open ocean and on the order of 10%–15% over high-albedo surfaces. The flexibility of the DIAL method to trade retrieval precision for spatial resolution is shown, highlighting its strengths over passive techniques to tailor retrievals to different scientific applications. Combined, the total error budget demonstrated here indicates a high impact for space-based DIAL, with technologies being advanced for space missions within the next 5–10 years.","PeriodicalId":198378,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Remote Sensing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141669216","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
