Enhancing the Accuracy of Jason-3 PWV Products Over Coastal Areas Using the Back Propagation Neural Network
The performance of microwave radiometers aboard altimetric satellites in measuring water vapor degrades significantly over coastal areas due to the mixing of land within its footprint. In this study, we propose using the back propagation neural network (BPNN) models to enhance the accuracy of Jason-3 precipitable water vapor (PWV) over coastal areas. PWV data from 2076 globally distributed coastal and island Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) stations and 237 radiosonde stations are used as the reference. Specifically, the GNSS PWV data in 2016 and 2017 are used to train the BPNN models, while the GNSS and radiosonde PWV observations from January 2018 to June 2023 are used to test the performances of the BPNN models proposed. Our results show that the proposed BPNN PWV models can considerably enhance the accuracy of Jason-3 PWV recorded in the coastal areas (within 25 km of land). Evaluated by the GNSS PWV, BPNN models can reduce the root mean square error (RMSE) of Jason-3 PWV in the coastal areas from 4.2 to 2.7 kg/m2 (35.7% of RMSE reduction). Assessed by the radiosonde PWV, the results indicate that the RMSE of Jason-3 PWV in the coastal areas is decreased from 5.0 to 3.6 kg/m2 (28.0% of RMSE reduction) after using the proposed BPNN models.
期刊介绍:
The IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing addresses the growing field of applications in Earth observations and remote sensing, and also provides a venue for the rapidly expanding special issues that are being sponsored by the IEEE Geosciences and Remote Sensing Society. The journal draws upon the experience of the highly successful “IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing” and provide a complementary medium for the wide range of topics in applied earth observations. The ‘Applications’ areas encompasses the societal benefit areas of the Global Earth Observations Systems of Systems (GEOSS) program. Through deliberations over two years, ministers from 50 countries agreed to identify nine areas where Earth observation could positively impact the quality of life and health of their respective countries. Some of these are areas not traditionally addressed in the IEEE context. These include biodiversity, health and climate. Yet it is the skill sets of IEEE members, in areas such as observations, communications, computers, signal processing, standards and ocean engineering, that form the technical underpinnings of GEOSS. Thus, the Journal attracts a broad range of interests that serves both present members in new ways and expands the IEEE visibility into new areas.
