Freezing-thawing transitions strongly impact land-atmosphere interactions and, thus, also the lower atmosphere above such areas. Observations of two L-band satellites, the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) and Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) missions, provide flags that characterize surfaces as either frozen or not frozen. However, both state transitions—freezing and thawing (FT)—are continuous and complex processes in space and time. Especially in the L-band, which has penetration depths of up to tens of centimeters, the brightness temperature (TB) may be generated by a vertically-mixed profile of different FT states, which cannot be described by the current version of the Community Microwave Emission Model (CMEM). To model such complex state transitions, we extended CMEM in Fresnel mode with an FT component by allowing for (1) a varying fraction of an open water surface on top of the soil, and (2) by implementing a temporal FT phase transition delay based on the difference between the soil surface temperature and the soil temperature at 2.5 cm depth. The extended CMEM (CMEM-FT) can capture the TB progression from a completely frozen to a thawed state of the contributing layer as observed by the L-band microwave radiometer ELBARA-III installed at the Maqu station at the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau. The extended model improves the correlation between the observations and CMEM simulations from 0.53/0.45 to 0.85/0.85 and its root-mean-square-error from 32/25 K to 20/15 K for H/V-polarization during thawing conditions. Yet, CMEM-FT does still not simulate the freezing transition sufficiently.","PeriodicalId":38304,"journal":{"name":"Yaogan Xuebao/Journal of Remote Sensing","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46532425","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}

Space-borne SIF products have been obtained owing to the rapid development of atmospheric satellites in recent years. The SIF Imaging Spectrometer (SIFIS) is a payload onboard the upcoming Terrestrial Ecosystem Carbon Inventory Satellite (TECIS-1) that is specifically designed for SIF monitoring. We conducted an in situ experiment to evaluate the performance of SIFIS on spectral measurement and SIF retrieval through comparison to the commercial spectrometer QE Pro. Disregarding the spatiotemporal mismatch between the collected measurements of the two spectrometers, the radiance spectra obtained synchronously by SIFIS and QE Pro showed a high level of consistency. The SIF retrieval, normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), and near-infrared radiance of vegetation (NIRvR) results for a push-broom image shows consistent spatial distributions over both vegetated and nonvegetated surfaces. A quantitative comparison was conducted by strictly filtering matching pixels. For the far-red band, a high correlation was obtained between the SIF retrieval performances of SIFIS and QE Pro with R2=0.70 and RMSE=0.30 mW m−2 sr−−1 nm−1. However, a relatively poor correlation was observed for the red band with an R2 value of 0.23 and an RMSE of 0.26 mWm−2sr-−1nm−1. Despite the large uncertainties associated with this experiment, the results indicate that TECIS-1 should offer a reliable SIF monitoring performance after its launch.","PeriodicalId":38304,"journal":{"name":"Yaogan Xuebao/Journal of Remote Sensing","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48242478","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}

Gross primary production (GPP) of vegetation in global urban areas is one of important metrics for assessing the impacts of urbanization on terrestrial ecosystems. To date, very limited data and information on the spatial-temporal dynamics of GPP in the global urban areas are available. In this study, we reported the spatial distribution and temporal dynamics of annual GPP during 2000–2016 from 8,182 gridcells (0.5° by 0.5° latitude and longitude) that have various proportion of urban areas. Approximately 79.3% of these urban gridcells had increasing trends of annual GPP during 2000-2016. As urban area proportion (%) within individual urban gridcells increased, the means of annual GPP trends also increased. Our results suggested that for those urban gridcells, the negative effect of urban expansion (often measured by impervious surfaces) on GPP was to large degree compensated by increased vegetation within the gridcells, mostly driven by urban management and local climate and environment. Our findings on the continued increases of annual GPP in most of urban gridcells shed new insight on the importance of urban areas on terrestrial carbon cycle and the potential of urban management and local climate and environment on improving vegetation in urban areas.","PeriodicalId":38304,"journal":{"name":"Yaogan Xuebao/Journal of Remote Sensing","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47633865","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 information mining requirements from big data and the advance in deep learning (DL) technology showed mutual promotive benefits in practical ocean information extraction and DL-based framework development. In 2020, scientists showed that most information retrievals from ocean remote sensing images could be accomplished using existing DL network frameworks, i.e., U-net for semantic segmentation and SSD (Single-Shot Multi-box Detection) for object detection [1]. The U-Net’s almost symmetric encoder-decoder structure and the skip connection between encoder-decoders have an excellent performance in retrieving fundamental semantic segmentation information in the ocean remote sensing imagery, such as coastal inundation area extractions [2]. SSD extracts feature maps of different data scales and takes a priori frames of different scales. Therefore, it has an excellent performance in detecting fundamental object detection problems in the ocean field, such as ship detection [3]. Although the off-the-shelf DL-based models are helpful, new developments in this field lead to a new era of DL-based technology for ocean remote sensing information mining. Specifically, two developments should be incorporated into the specific task-driven DL model: network architecture advance and domain-knowledge-based (expert knowledge) guidance in model parameter selection.

The Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) global products at 36 km and 9 km (called P36 and AP9 in this research) have been published from April 2015. However, the 9 km AP9 product was retrieved from the active radar and L-band passive radiometer and the active radar failed in July 2015. In this research, the virtual image pair-based spatiotemporal fusion model was coupled with a spatial weighting scheme (VIPSTF-SW) to simulate the 9 km AP9 data after failure of the active radar. The method makes full use of all the historical AP9 and P36 data available between April and July 2015. As a result, 8-day composited 9 km SMAP data at the global scale were produced from 2015 to 2020, by downscaling the corresponding 8-day composited P36 data. The available AP9 data and in situ reference data were used to validate the predicted 9 km data. Generally, the predicted 9 km SMAP data can provide more spatial details than P36 and are more accurate than the existing EP9 product. The VIPSTF-SW-predicted 9 km SMAP data are an accurate substitute for AP9 and will be made freely available to support research and applications in hydrology, climatology, ecology, and many other fields at the global scale.","PeriodicalId":38304,"journal":{"name":"Yaogan Xuebao/Journal of Remote Sensing","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48307815","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}

However, it is a challenge to classify tree species in subtropical regions due to complex landscapes and limitations of remote sensing data. The objective of this study was to propose a modified hierarchy-based classifier (MHBC) by optimizing the classification tree structures and variable selection method. Major steps to create an MHBC include automatic determination of classification tree structures based on the Z-score algorithm, selection and optimization of variables for each node, and classification using the optimized model. Experiments based on the fusion of Gaofen-1/Ziyuan-3 panchromatic (GF-1/ZY-3 PAN) and Sentinel-2 multispectral (MS) data indicated that (1) the MHBC provided overall classification accuracies of 85.19% for Gaofeng Forest Farm in China’s southern subtropical region and 94.4% for Huashi Township in China’s northern subtropical region, which had higher accuracies than random forest (RF) and classification and regression tree (CART); (2) critical variables for each class can be identified using the MHBC, and optimal variables of most nodes are spectral bands and vegetation indices; (3) compared to results from RF and CART, MHBC mainly improved the accuracies of the lower levels of classification tree structures (difficult classes to separate). The novelty in using MHBC is its simple and practical operation, easy-to-understand, and visualized variables that were selected in each node of the automatically constructed hierarchical trees. The robust performance of MHBC implies the potential to apply this approach to other sites for accurate classification of forest types.","PeriodicalId":38304,"journal":{"name":"Yaogan Xuebao/Journal of Remote Sensing","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46573737","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}

Savannas have been undergoing changes that alter the composition and structure of their vegetation such as the encroachment of woody vegetation and increasing land-use intensity. Monitoring the spatial and temporal dynamics of savanna ecosystem structure (e.g., partitioning woody and herbaceous vegetation) and function (e.g., aboveground biomass) is of high importance. Major challenges include misclassification of savannas as forests at the mesic end of their range, disentangling the contribution of woody and herbaceous vegetation to aboveground biomass, and quantifying and mapping fuel loads. Here, we review current (2010–present) research in the application of satellite remote sensing in savannas at regional and global scales. We identify emerging opportunities in satellite remote sensing that can help overcome existing challenges. We provide recommendations on how these opportunities can be leveraged, specifically (1) the development of a conceptual framework that leads to a consistent definition of savannas in remote sensing; (2) improving mapping of savannas to include ecologically relevant information such as soil properties and fire activity; (3) exploiting high-resolution imagery provided by nanosatellites to better understand the role of landscape structure in ecosystem functioning; and (4) using novel approaches from artificial intelligence and machine learning in combination with multisource satellite observations, e.g., multi-/hyperspectral, synthetic aperture radar (SAR), and light detection and ranging (lidar), and data on plant traits to infer potentially new relationships between biotic and abiotic components of savannas that can be either proven or disproven with targeted field experiments.","PeriodicalId":38304,"journal":{"name":"Yaogan Xuebao/Journal of Remote Sensing","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47265796","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}
