Spectral reconstruction technology extracts rich detail information from limited spectral bands, thereby enhancing both of the image quality and the resolution capabilities. It finds application in non-destructive testing, elevating the precision and robustness of detection. Current studies primarily focus on improving the local information perception of convolutional neural networks or modeling long-distance dependencies with Transformer. However, such approaches fail to effectively integrate global–local modeling information, resulting in poor accuracy in image reconstruction. This paper introduces a Progressive CNN-Transformer Alternating Reconstruction Network (PCTARN) to alternately utilize robust convolutional attention and transpose Transformer self-attention. A Dual-Path CNN-Transformer Alternating Reconstruction Module (DPCTARM) is proposed to dynamically introduce global–local dynamic priors at various levels to facilitate extracting high- and low-frequency features. This enhancement effectively strengthens PCTARN’s capability to discern valuable signals. To verify the proposed method, a spectral dataset based on seven selected red tide algae is collected. And a peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) metric of 34.58 dB is achieved, which is at least 0.44 dB higher than the methods such as MAUN and MST++. While the Params and FLOPS are reduced by over 41.9 % and 38.4 %, respectively. Since the performance of the proposed PCTARN depends not only on image quality but also on spectral fidelity, an application of spectral detection on red tide are conducted for this purpose. Four feature bands are selected from multispectral images and reconstructed into 20-band hyperspectral images by using PCTARN. Species identification and cell concentration detection are conducted based on the reconstructed images. The results demonstrate that PCTARN can enhance the spatial signal and spectral peak differences of red tide samples, achieving an identification accuracy of 94.21 % and a coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.9660 in species identification and cell concentration detection, which are respectively improved by 11.55 % and 11.59 % compared to those of 4-band multispectral detection.

光谱重建技术可从有限的光谱波段中提取丰富的细节信息,从而提高图像质量和分辨率。它可应用于无损检测,提高检测的精确度和鲁棒性。目前的研究主要集中在提高卷积神经网络的局部信息感知能力,或利用 Transformer 建立长距离依赖关系模型。然而,这些方法未能有效整合全局-局部建模信息,导致图像重建精度不高。本文介绍了一种渐进式 CNN-变换器交替重建网络(PCTARN),交替使用鲁棒卷积注意力和变换器自注意力。本文提出了一个双路径 CNN-变换器交替重构模块(DPCTARM),在不同层面动态引入全局-局部动态前验,以方便提取高频和低频特征。这一改进有效加强了 PCTARN 识别有价值信号的能力。为了验证所提出的方法,我们收集了基于七种选定赤潮藻类的光谱数据集。该方法的峰值信噪比(PSNR)指标达到了 34.58 dB,比 MAUN 和 MST++ 等方法至少高出 0.44 dB。而 Params 和 FLOPS 分别减少了 41.9% 和 38.4%。由于所提出的 PCTARN 的性能不仅取决于图像质量,还取决于光谱保真度,因此我们对赤潮进行了光谱检测应用。从多光谱图像中选取四个特征波段,利用 PCTARN 重构成 20 波段的高光谱图像。根据重建后的图像进行物种识别和细胞浓度检测。结果表明,PCTARN 能够增强赤潮样本的空间信号和光谱峰值差异,在物种识别和细胞浓度检测方面的识别准确率达到 94.21 %,判定系数 (R2) 为 0.9660,与 4 波段多光谱检测相比分别提高了 11.55 % 和 11.59 %。

The European Space Agency (ESA) under the Climate Change Initiative (CCI) has developed a multi-satellite global, daily Soil Moisture (SM) dataset that has paved the ways for agricultural drought studies. To evaluate the performance of this ESACCI SM, two SM-based indices i.e. parametric distribution-based Standardized Soil Moisture Index (SSMI) and non-parametric distribution-based Empirical Standardized Soil Moisture Index (ESSMI) are computed to characterize agricultural drought in the Southern Plateau and Hills (SPH) in India from 1991 to 2020. SSMI and ESSMI are then compared with the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI). The yearly temporal analysis revealed a consistent pattern among all the four indices with 2003 and 2020 marked as the driest and wettest years, respectively. On the other hand, monthly temporal analysis indicated SSMI and ESSMI lagged behind SPI and ESSMI suggesting a delayed response of SM to precipitation. Spatial distributions of indices showed that the SM-based indices effectively capture temporal variations of dryness or wetness across seasons. The near normal and mild to moderate droughts predominated (both spatially and temporally) the SPH and SSMI better captured the extreme drought areas compared to ESSMI. Further, Dynamic Threshold Run Theory (DTRT) is introduced to identify and characterize drought events based on their duration, frequency, intensity and peak. The findings revealed a resemblance in spatial distribution between the duration and frequency. The drought peak and intensity revealed a moderate nature of drought conditions. Overall, this study highlights the effectiveness of ESACCI SM product to characterize the agricultural droughts.

欧洲航天局(ESA)在气候变化倡议(CCI)下开发了一个多卫星全球每日土壤湿度(SM)数据集,为农业干旱研究铺平了道路。为了评估 ESACCI SM 的性能,计算了两个基于 SM 的指数,即基于参数分布的标准化土壤水分指数(SSMI)和基于非参数分布的经验标准化土壤水分指数(ESSMI),以描述 1991 年至 2020 年印度南部高原和丘陵地区(SPH)的农业干旱特征。然后将 SSMI 和 ESSMI 与标准化降水指数 (SPI) 和标准化降水蒸散指数 (SPEI) 进行比较。年度时间分析表明,所有四项指数之间存在一致的模式,2003 年和 2020 年分别是最干旱和最潮湿的年份。另一方面,月度时间分析表明,SSMI 和 ESSMI 滞后于 SPI 和 ESSMI,这表明水汽蒸发指数对降水的反应延迟。指数的空间分布表明,基于降水层的指数能有效捕捉不同季节干湿度的时间变化。与 ESSMI 相比,SPH 和 SSMI 更好地捕捉了极端干旱地区。此外,还引入了动态阈值运行理论(DTRT),根据干旱事件的持续时间、频率、强度和峰值来识别和描述干旱事件。研究结果表明,干旱持续时间和频率的空间分布具有相似性。干旱峰值和强度显示了干旱条件的温和性。总之,这项研究突出了 ESACCI SM 产品在描述农业干旱方面的有效性。

To attain sustainable development goals and understand urban growth patterns, continuous and precise monitoring of built-up area heights is essential. This helps reveal how urban form evolution impacts the thermal environment. Previous research often used isolated images, ignoring the temporal dimension of thermal infrared and reflectance data from Landsat sensors. Additionally, cost-effective and efficient methods for reconstructing time-series built height are lacking. To fill this knowledge gap, we utilized Landsat time-series data to reconstruct the yearly trends in urban form in Beijing, China, spanning from 1990 to 2020. Continuous Change Detection and Classification (CCDC) time series analysis method was used to identify urban growth and renewal years. Employing a reference height for 2020 and logical reasoning method, we reconstructed the annual dynamics of built-up heights, pinpointing years of significant change. Finally, we analyzed the alterations in urban form over the past three decades and their impact on surface temperature changes. Our change detection method achieved an overall accuracy of 86 %, demonstrating its effectiveness in determining the year of change. When compared with data from Lianjia and LiDAR point cloud, our height reconstruction method showed impressive accuracy, with R2 values of 0.9773 and 0.9526, respectively. Analysis of summer and winter LST values revealed distinct temperature patterns across different building heights, with mid-rise buildings exhibiting the highest LST in summer and low-rise buildings registering the highest LST in winter. During periods of urban growth, both mean and amplitude values of LST increased, while during urban renewal (demolition), they decreased. The date of annual temperature peaks advanced during urban growth but delayed during urban renewal (demolition). Our time series analysis framework offers a new method for understanding the yearly dynamics of urban form and its influence on surface temperature, with potential applications in carbon emission and urban climate modeling studies.

为了实现可持续发展目标和了解城市增长模式,必须对建成区高度进行持续、精确的监测。这有助于揭示城市形态演变如何影响热环境。以往的研究通常使用孤立的图像,忽略了大地遥感卫星传感器提供的热红外和反射数据的时间维度。此外,还缺乏重建时间序列建筑高度的经济有效的方法。为了填补这一知识空白,我们利用 Landsat 时间序列数据重建了中国北京从 1990 年到 2020 年的城市形态年度趋势。连续变化检测与分类(CCDC)时间序列分析方法用于识别城市增长和更新年份。利用 2020 年的参考高度和逻辑推理方法,我们重建了建成区高度的年度动态变化,精确定位了显著变化的年份。最后,我们分析了过去三十年城市形态的变化及其对地表温度变化的影响。我们的变化检测方法总体准确率达到 86%,证明了其在确定变化年份方面的有效性。在与连嘉数据和激光雷达点云数据进行比较时,我们的高度重建方法表现出了令人印象深刻的准确性,R2 值分别为 0.9773 和 0.9526。对夏季和冬季 LST 值的分析表明,不同高度的建筑具有不同的温度模式,中层建筑在夏季表现出最高的 LST,而低层建筑在冬季表现出最高的 LST。在城市发展时期,LST 的平均值和振幅值都有所上升,而在城市重建(拆迁)时期,LST 则有所下降。年气温峰值出现的日期在城市发展期间提前,而在城市改造(拆迁)期间推迟。我们的时间序列分析框架为了解城市形态的年度动态及其对地表温度的影响提供了一种新方法,有望应用于碳排放和城市气候建模研究。

The process of crop type mapping generates land use maps, which serve as critical tools for efficient evaluation of production factors and impacts of agricultural practice. Yet, despite the necessity for comprehensive solutions in space and time, the state of research still exhibits significant limitations in these two dimensions: (1) From a temporal perspective, the primary focus of past research in crop type mapping has been on the economically most meaningful, main-season crops, thereby largely neglecting the explicit study of off-season vegetation despite its pivotal roles in year-round management cycles. (2) Viewed spatially, study areas in crop type mapping show distinct limitations from a multi- and transnational standpoint, despite intense cross-regional and international interrelations of agricultural production and an increasing number of countries publishing crop reference data. With a focus on Europe, this research aims to tackle the two described shortcomings (a) by investigating to what extent a selection of major off-season, winter vegetation types in continental Europe can be classified and (b) by analyzing the transnational applicability of the Hierarchical Crop and Agriculture Taxonomy (HCAT) for remote sensing-based crop type mapping across the European Union (EU). This study uses ESA’s Sentinel-2 satellite data, EU’s administrative farming declarations, and HCAT labels to analyze off-season farming measures, based on a study period from late summer to spring, in Austria, France, Germany, and Slovenia. We demonstrate that deep learning models effectively identify major productive and agroecogically significant winter vegetation in continental Europe. HCAT proves thereby valuable for transnational crop classification, excelling in mixed-country experiments and showing potential for transfer learning. This study’s findings provide a solid foundation for advancing transnational as well as winter and all-year crop type mapping, thereby serving as contribution towards temporally and spatially holistic research on agricultural practices’ sociocultural, economic, and environmental impacts.

作物类型测绘过程生成的土地利用图是有效评估生产要素和农业实践影响的重要工具。然而,尽管有必要在空间和时间上提供全面的解决方案,但研究现状在这两个方面仍表现出明显的局限性:(1)从时间角度看,过去作物类型绘图研究的主要重点是经济上最有意义的主季作物,从而在很大程度上忽视了对淡季植被的明确研究,尽管淡季植被在全年管理周期中发挥着关键作用。(2) 从空间上看,尽管农业生产的跨区域和国际相互关系密切,而且越来越多的国家公布了作物参考数据,但从多国和跨国的角度来看,作物类型绘图的研究区域仍有明显的局限性。本研究以欧洲为重点,旨在解决上述两个缺陷:(a)调查欧洲大陆主要淡季、冬季植被类型的分类程度;(b)分析基于遥感技术的作物类型测绘在欧盟(EU)范围内的作物和农业分级分类法(HCAT)的跨国适用性。本研究利用欧空局的哨兵-2 号卫星数据、欧盟的农业行政申报和 HCAT 标签,分析了奥地利、法国、德国和斯洛文尼亚从夏末到春季的淡季农业措施。我们证明,深度学习模型能有效识别欧洲大陆主要的高产和具有农业生态意义的冬季植被。因此,HCAT 被证明对跨国作物分类很有价值,在混合国家实验中表现出色,并显示出迁移学习的潜力。这项研究的发现为推进跨国以及冬季和全年作物类型绘图奠定了坚实的基础,从而有助于从时间和空间上对农业实践的社会文化、经济和环境影响进行整体研究。

Understanding spatial interactions in urban environments has become critical in the context of spatio-temporal big data. However, Spatial–temporal big data often exhibit non-uniformity, necessitating the imputation of spatial interaction relationships derived from the analysis of such data. Previous studies often used simplified grid-based or TAZ approaches that ignore the complex interactions for spatial interaction imputation, leading to limitations in accuracy. In this paper, we proposed a two-layer spatial interaction imputation framework (SIF) for accurate multi-scale spatial interaction imputation. To our knowledge, this is the first time that we impute spatial interactions in multi-scale urban areas. In the first layer, it utilised a hierarchical spatial units division algorithm inspired by Shannon’s information entropy to hierarchically classify study area using point of interest (POI) data; In the second layer, it integrates the classified areas and travel flow data into a spatial interaction graph convolutional network (SI-GCN) for spatial interaction imputation. Two case studies were conducted in Beijing, China and New York City, USA, using over eight million taxi data and one million bike-sharing data. The results showed the superior performance of SIF compared to baseline models. The results also analysed the travel behaviours in both Cities, as well as the impact of social, economic and environmental factors on passengers’ spatial choices when travelling.

在时空大数据的背景下,理解城市环境中的空间互动变得至关重要。然而,时空大数据往往表现出非均匀性,因此有必要对通过分析此类数据得出的空间交互关系进行估算。以往的研究通常采用简化的基于网格或 TAZ 的方法,忽略了空间交互归因的复杂交互关系,导致准确性受到限制。在本文中,我们提出了一种双层空间交互估算框架(SIF),用于精确的多尺度空间交互估算。据我们所知,这是我们首次对多尺度城市区域的空间交互进行估算。在第一层,它利用受香农信息熵启发的分层空间单元划分算法,利用兴趣点(POI)数据对研究区域进行分层分类;在第二层,它将分类区域和出行流量数据整合到空间交互图卷积网络(SI-GCN)中,用于空间交互估算。在中国北京和美国纽约市进行了两项案例研究,使用了超过 800 万条出租车数据和 100 万条共享单车数据。研究结果表明,与基线模型相比,SIF 的性能更加优越。研究结果还分析了这两个城市的出行行为,以及社会、经济和环境因素对乘客出行空间选择的影响。

Well-facilitated farmland (WFF) construction is greatly responsible for agricultural sustainable development. How to quantitatively plan the WFF construction distribution and schedule is still challenging. This study thus introduced a simple but robust method, and took the typical dryland Yulin city to spatially identify its potential WFF construction areas and temporally determine construction priorities based on public data. By integrating satellite-observed croplands with survey-based statistical data, this study firstly obtained density maps of constant croplands. We found that constant cropland densities decreased from west to east in Yulin city. Jingbian and Dingbian counties of the west gave relatively dense distributions. Secondly, by overlaying evaluation indictors of WFF construction, we found over 96% of constant croplands had WFF construction potentials. Slope and fractional vegetation coverage (FVC) showed evidently spatial differences, which comprehensively reflected the potentials and difficulties of WFF construction. Therefore, an index SF, by considering normalized slope and FVC, was subsequently introduced to rank potential WFF construction priorities. According to the completion ratio and the assumption that giving priorities to develop better basic condition regions, batches of WFF construction areas were identified under the equal proportion planning scenario for each county (S1). Besides, a scenario of city-wide unified planning (S2) was also discussed. WFF construction areas in S2 were further concentrated in northwestern counties compared to those in S1. Both scenarios recommended that construction priorities were given to northwestern counties. This study could provide valuable references for arranging distributions and schedules of WFF construction.

良好农田(WFF)建设对农业可持续发展负有重大责任。如何定量规划农田水利设施建设的分布和进度仍然是一个挑战。因此,本研究引入了一种简单而稳健的方法,以典型的旱地榆林市为研究对象,基于公开数据从空间上识别其潜在的井田建设区域,并从时间上确定建设重点。通过将卫星观测到的耕地与基于调查的统计数据相结合,本研究首先获得了常量耕地的密度图。我们发现,榆林市的常住耕地密度由西向东递减。西部的靖边县和定边县分布相对密集。其次,通过叠加水冲厕建设的评价指标,我们发现超过 96% 的恒定耕地具有水冲厕建设潜力。坡度和植被覆盖率(FVC)表现出明显的空间差异,综合反映了水冲厕建设的潜力和困难。因此,在考虑归一化坡度和植被覆盖率的基础上,引入了 SF 指数,对潜在的水冲厕建设重点进行排序。根据完成比例和优先发展基础条件较好地区的假设,在各县等比例规划方案(S1)下,确定了成批的水论坛建设区域。此外,还讨论了全市统一规划的方案(S2)。与 S1 方案相比,S2 方案中的 WFF 建设区进一步集中在西北部县区。两种方案都建议将建设重点放在西北部县区。本研究可为安排水论坛建设的分布和进度提供有价值的参考。

The accurate estimation of Above Ground Biomass (AGB) is the basis for plantation forest carbon trading. This study focused on Picea crassifolia artificial plantations, extracting individual tree crown diameters and heights using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) data and calculating the individual tree biomass using allometric growth equations. These results were then used to train a satellite image AGB prediction model. In additional, satellite images were resampled to different resolutions to assess the impact of satellite image resolution on model the accuracy. Finally, the model with the highest accuracy among the deep learning algorithms was selected to predicts the AGB within the P. crassifolia plantation forest. The results indicated that the accuracy of single tree crown diameters extracted from P. crassifolia point clouds significantly surpassed those extracted from general point clouds and Crown Height Model (CHM), while the accuracy of the heights extracted from all three sources was similar; RepLKNet outperformed GoogLeNet and ResNet in identifying plantation forest; random forest slightly outperformed XGBoost in the capability of AGB prediction, while the accuracy of the AGB prediction models initially increasd and then decreasd with satellite image resolution, reaching the highest accuracy at a resolution of 50 m. This indicates that the optimal satellite image resolution for estimating the AGB in the study area was affected by scale effects of 50 m. Compared with the combination of satellite data and manual field measurements, the concurrent use of UAVs and satellites offers significant advantages in terms of efficiency and accuracy. UAVs can replace manual sampling for carbon sequestration transactions for plantations.

准确估算地上生物量(AGB)是人工林碳交易的基础。这项研究主要针对人工种植的红豆杉(Picea crassifolia),利用无人机(UAV)数据提取单棵树的树冠直径和高度,并利用异速生长方程计算单棵树的生物量。这些结果随后被用于训练卫星图像 AGB 预测模型。此外,卫星图像被重新采样到不同的分辨率,以评估卫星图像分辨率对模型准确性的影响。最后,选择了深度学习算法中准确率最高的模型来预测 P. crassifolia 人工林中的 AGB。结果表明,从 P. crassolia 点云中提取的单棵树冠径的准确度明显超过了从卫星云中提取的单棵树冠径的准确度。在人工林识别方面,RepLKNet优于GoogLeNet和ResNet;在AGB预测能力方面,随机森林略优于XGBoost,而AGB预测模型的准确率随卫星图像分辨率的变化先增大后减小,在分辨率为50 m时准确率最高。与卫星数据和人工实地测量相结合的方法相比,同时使用无人机和卫星在效率和精度方面具有显著优势。无人机可以取代人工采样,用于人工林的碳封存交易。

Mapping water bodies from remotely sensed imagery is crucial for understanding hydrological and biogeochemical processes. The identification of water extent is mainly dependent on optical and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. However, the use of remote sensing for water body mapping is often undermined by the mixed pixel dilemma inherent to traditional hard classification approaches. At the same time, the presence of clouds in optical imagery and speckle noise in SAR imagery, coupled with the difficulty in differentiating between water-like surfaces and actual water bodies, significantly compromise the accuracy of water body identification. This paper proposes a DEEP feature collaborative convolutional neural network (CNN) for Water Super-Resolution Mapping based on Optical and SAR images (DeepOSWSRM), which collaboratively leverages Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 imagery to address the challenges of missing data and mixed pixels. The Sentinel-1 image provides complementary water distribution information for the cloudy areas of the Sentinel-2 image, while the Sentinel-2 image enhances the perception capabilities for small water bodies in the Sentinel-1 image. Using PlanetScope imagery as the true reference data, the effectiveness of the proposed method was assessed through two experimental scenarios: one utilizing synthetic coarse-resolution imagery degraded from Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 data and another using actual Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 data, encompassing both simulated and real cloud conditions. A comparative analysis was conducted against three state-of-the-art CNN-based water mapping methods and two CNN SRM methods. The findings demonstrate that the proposed DeepOSWSRM method successfully produces accurate, fine-resolution water body maps, with its performance mainly benefiting from the fusion of SAR and optical images.

利用遥感图像绘制水体图对于了解水文和生物地球化学过程至关重要。水域范围的识别主要依赖于光学和合成孔径雷达(SAR)图像。然而,传统的硬分类方法所固有的混合像素困境往往会削弱遥感技术在水体绘图中的应用。同时,光学图像中云层的存在和合成孔径雷达图像中的斑点噪声,再加上难以区分类水表面和实际水体,大大影响了水体识别的准确性。本文提出了一种基于光学图像和合成孔径雷达图像的水体超分辨率制图(DeepOSWSRM)的 DEEP 特征协同卷积神经网络(CNN),它协同利用哨兵-1 和哨兵-2 图像来解决数据缺失和像素混合的难题。哨兵-1 图像为哨兵-2 图像的多云区域提供了补充的水体分布信息,而哨兵-2 图像则增强了对哨兵-1 图像中小型水体的感知能力。利用 PlanetScope 图像作为真正的参考数据,通过两种实验方案评估了所提方法的有效性:一种方案是利用从哨兵-1 和哨兵-2 数据退化而来的合成粗分辨率图像,另一种方案是利用实际的哨兵-1 和哨兵-2 数据,包括模拟和真实的云条件。与三种最先进的基于 CNN 的水地图绘制方法和两种 CNN SRM 方法进行了比较分析。研究结果表明,所提出的 DeepOSWSRM 方法能成功绘制出精确、精细的水体地图,其性能主要得益于合成孔径雷达和光学图像的融合。

Automatic 3D reconstruction from spaceborne charge-coupled device (CCD) optical imagery is still a challenge as the rational functional model (RFM) based reconstruction pipeline failed to amount to the advances of pinhole based approaches in computer vision and photogrammetry. As a consequence, the accuracy and completeness of the reconstructed surface by RFM based pipeline improved slightly recent years. Though the perspective camera approximation model was explored to convert the RFM to pinhole model, it could hardly guarantee the reconstruction accuracy due to the re-projection error introduced when approximating the linear push broom camera to perspective camera. Hence, we present a refined equivalent pinhole model (REPM) for 3D reconstruction from spaceborne CCD imagery. We initially investigated the aspects that influence the re-projection error thru mathematical induction and discovered that the image size and height range of the captured area are the two key factors. To ensure the performance of the 3D reconstruction while minimizing the re-projection error, we explored the optimal image size to crop large-scale image with, while alleviated the height range effect on the image space by re-projecting the cropped images to be closed to the pseudo-image that is captured by the approximated perspective camera. The above-mentioned improvements are implemented in an image partition module and an image geometric correction module respectively, and are encompassed in the proposed REPM-based 3D reconstruction pipeline. We conducted extensive experiments on different images covering various areas from different linear-array CCD sensors to verify the proposed approach. The results indicate that our pipeline can achieve higher accuracy and completeness and exhibits great potential. The implementation of the pipeline is available at here.

从空间电荷耦合器件(CCD)光学图像进行自动三维重建仍然是一项挑战,因为基于合理函数模型(RFM)的重建管道未能赶上计算机视觉和摄影测量领域基于针孔方法的进步。因此,基于 RFM 的重建管道重建表面的精度和完整性近年来略有提高。虽然人们探索了将 RFM 转换为针孔模型的透视相机近似模型,但由于将线性推帚相机近似为透视相机时会引入重投影误差,因此很难保证重建精度。因此,我们提出了一种用于空间 CCD 图像三维重建的精制等效针孔模型(REPM)。我们通过数学归纳法初步研究了影响重投影误差的各个方面,发现图像尺寸和捕获区域的高度范围是两个关键因素。为了在确保三维重建性能的同时尽量减小重投影误差,我们探索了裁剪大尺度图像的最佳图像尺寸,同时通过对裁剪后的图像进行重投影,使其与近似透视相机拍摄的伪图像相接近,从而减轻了高度范围对图像空间的影响。上述改进分别在图像分割模块和图像几何校正模块中实现,并包含在所提出的基于 REPM 的三维重建流水线中。我们对来自不同线性阵列 CCD 传感器、覆盖不同区域的不同图像进行了大量实验,以验证所提出的方法。结果表明,我们的管道可以实现更高的精度和完整性,并展现出巨大的潜力。该管道的实现方法可在此处获取。

The Qinghai-Xizang Plateau, hosting the world’s largest alpine pastures, plays a pivotal environmental role in Asia. These ecosystems face alterations driven by both climate change and anthropogenic activities, resulting in the widespread consideration of grassland degradation. From 2000 to 2020, the northern Xizang Plateau experienced a pronounced escalation in drought conditions, particularly following a management policy aimed at combating grassland degradation, via restricting livestock numbers and implementing fencing enclosures, initiated in 2009. Specially, following the enforcement of this policy (2010–2020), there was a substantial 13.5 % reduction in soil moisture levels compared to the pre-implementation period (2000–2009), accompanied by a 42.8 % increase in drought severity (measured by the Palmer Drought Severity Index, PDSI) and an 11.6 % rise in drought duration. Under these challenging drought conditions, we identified negative trends of potential grassland Net Primary Productivity (NPP) which in absence of anthropogenic influence, as simulated by terrestrial ecosystem model (TEM). Contrary to this simulation, satellite time series observations revealed a widespread increase in actual grassland productivity. Remarkably, despite the challenging drought conditions between 2010 and 2020, we observed a substantial increase of 4.8 % in actual NPP (measured by light use efficiency model), 2.7 % in Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), 10 % in solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF), and 7.95 % in Gross Primary Productivity (GPP), respectively. Much of this enhancement in grassland productivity occurred in areas where livestock populations had markedly declined. Notably, the percentage of NPP increase mainly caused by degradation-combating actions doubled from 24.8 % during 2000–2009 to 49.8 % during 2010–2020 across the northern Xizang Plateau. In conclusion, our findings highlight the potential of large-scale degradation-combating actions to mitigate the negative impacts of climate change and contribute to a greener Earth.

青藏高原拥有世界上最大的高寒牧场,在亚洲发挥着举足轻重的环境作用。这些生态系统面临着气候变化和人为活动的双重影响,导致草场退化的问题普遍存在。从 2000 年到 2020 年,西藏高原北部的干旱状况明显加剧,尤其是在 2009 年开始实施旨在通过限制牲畜数量和实施围栏圈地来遏制草原退化的管理政策之后。特别是在该政策实施后(2010-2020 年),与政策实施前(2000-2009 年)相比,土壤墒情大幅下降了 13.5%,同时干旱严重程度(以帕尔默干旱严重程度指数 PDSI 衡量)增加了 42.8%,干旱持续时间延长了 11.6%。根据陆地生态系统模型(TEM)的模拟,在这些具有挑战性的干旱条件下,我们发现在没有人为影响的情况下,潜在的草地净初级生产力(NPP)呈负增长趋势。与模拟结果相反,卫星时间序列观测结果显示实际草原生产力普遍提高。值得注意的是,尽管 2010 年至 2020 年期间的干旱条件极具挑战性,但我们观察到实际净生产力(通过光利用效率模型测量)、归一化植被指数(NDVI)、太阳诱导叶绿素荧光(SIF)和总初级生产力(GPP)分别大幅提高了 4.8%、2.7%、10% 和 7.95%。草地生产力的提高主要发生在牲畜数量明显减少的地区。值得注意的是,在整个西藏高原北部,主要由防治退化行动引起的净初级生产力增长百分比翻了一番,从2000-2009年期间的24.8%增至2010-2020年期间的49.8%。总之,我们的研究结果凸显了大规模遏制退化行动在减缓气候变化的负面影响和建设绿色地球方面的潜力。

Under these challenging drought conditions, we identified negative trends of potential grassland Net Primary Productivity (NPP) which in absence of anthropogenic influence, as simulated by terrestrial ecosystem model (TEM). Contrary to this simulation, satellite time series observations revealed a widespread increase in actual grassland productivity. Remarkably, despite the challenging drought conditions between 2010 and 2020, we observed a substantial increase of 4.8 % in actual NPP (measured by light use efficiency model), 2.7 % in Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), 10 % in solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF), and 7.95 % in Gross Primary Productivity (GPP), respectively. Much of this enhancement in grassland productivity occurred in areas where livestock populations had markedly declined. Notably, the percentage of NPP increase mainly caused by degradation-combating actions doubled from 24.8 % during 2000–2009 to 49.8 % during 2010–2020 across the northern Xizang Plateau. In conclusion, our findings highlight the potential of large-scale degradation-combating actions to mitigate the negative impacts of climate change and contribute to a greener Earth.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":73423,"journal":{"name":"International journal of applied earth observation and geoinformation : ITC journal","volume":"134 ","pages":"Article 104171"},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1569843224005272/pdfft?md5=c5dbc610180052546ab0d66052eb2c08&pid=1-s2.0-S1569843224005272-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142240241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
