Surface Skin Temperature

Actual evapotranspiration (ET) with high spatiotemporal resolution is very important for the research on agricultural water resource management and the water cycle processes, and it is helpful to realize precision agriculture and smart agriculture, and provides critical references for agricultural layout planning. Due to the impact of the clouds, weather environment, and the orbital period of optical satellite, there are difficulties in providing daily remote sensing data that are not contaminated by clouds for estimating daily ET with high spatial-temporal resolution. By improving the enhanced spatial and temporal adaptive reflectance fusion model (ESTARFM), this manuscript proposes the method to fuse high temporal and low spatial resolution Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model surface skin temperature (TSK) with the low temporal and high spatial resolution remote sensing surface temperature for obtaining high spatiotemporal resolution daily surface temperature to be used in the estimation of the high spatial resolution daily ET (ET_WRFHR). The distinction of this study from the previous literatures can be summarized as the novel application of the fusion of WRF-simulated TSK and remote sensing surface temperature, giving full play to the availability of model surface skin temperature data at any time and region, making up for the shortcomings of the remote sensing data, and combining the high spatial resolution of remote sensing data to obtain ET with high spatial (Landsat-like scale) and temporal (daily) resolution. The ET_WRFHR were cross-validated and quantitatively verified with MODIS ET products (MOD16) and observations (ET_Obs) from eddy covariance system. Results showed that ET_WRFHR not only better reflects the difference and dynamic evolution process of ET for different land types but also better identifies the details of various fine geographical objects. It also represented a high correlation with the ET_Obs by the R2 amount reaching 0.9186. Besides, the RMSE and BIAS between ET_WRFHR and the ET_Obs are obtained as 0.77 mm/d and −0.08 mm/d respectively. High R2, as well as the small RMSE and BIAS amounts, indicate that ET_WRFHR has achieved a very good performance.

<p>Accurate estimation of surface evapotranspiration (ET) with high quality and fine spatiotemporal resolution is one of the biggest obstacles for routine applications of remote sensing in eco-hydrological studies and water resource management at basin scale. Integrating multi-source remote sensing data is one of the main ideas for many scholars to obtain synthesized frequent high spatial resolution surface ET. This study was based on the theoretically robust surface energy balance system (SEBS) model, which the model mechanism needs further investigation, including the applicability and the influencing factors, such as local environment, heterogeneity of the landscape, and optimized parametric scheme, for improving estimation accuracy. In addition, due to technical and budget limitations, so far, no single sensor provides both high spatial resolution and high temporal resolution. Optical remote sensing data is missing due to frequent cloud contamination and other poor atmospheric conditions. The passive microwave (PW) remote sensing has a better ability in overcoming the influences of clouds and rainy. The accurate "all-weather" ET estimation method had been proposed through blending multi-source remote sensing data acquired by optical, thermal infrared (TIR) and PW remote sensors on board polar satellite platforms. The estimation had been carried out for daily ET of the River Source Region in Southwest China, and then the "All-weather" remotely sensed ET results showed that the daily ET estimates had a mean absolute percent error (MAPE) of 36% and a root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.88 mm/day relative to ground measurements from 12 eddy covariance (EC) sites in the study area. The validation results indicated good accuracy using multi-source remote sensing data in cloudy and mountainous regions.</p>

The salt dome in Jizan, southwestern Saudi Arabia, has caused several problems related to underground dissolution, particularly in the old part of the city. Examples of these problems include surface collapse, building failure, fracturing, tilting, and road cracking. Analysis of the salt dome using X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealed the dominance of gypsum, anhydrite, and halite. This study evaluates the damage assessment using multitemporal high spatial resolution data of the GeoEye-1, and QuickBird-2 sensors. Change detection technique, textural analysis, and visual interpretation were applied to these data. Analysis of the data recorded before and after a particular damage event revealed that three neighborhoods located above the Jizan salt dome—Al-Ashaima, Shamiya, and Aljabal—were affected to the greatest extent. The entire residential neighborhood of Al-Ashaima was evacuated, and the buildings located in it were demolished. Several buildings in the Shamiya and Aljabal neighborhoods were also demolished. Therefore, high spatial remote sensing data are effective in assessing building damage and for anticipating future damage, thus benefiting decision making for the affected cities.

Abstract Hyperspectral remote sensing based image classification is found to be a very widely used method employed for scene analysis that is from a remote sensing data which is of a high spatial resolution. Classification is a critical task in the processing of remote sensing. On the basis of the fact that there are different materials with reflections in a particular spectral band, all the traditional pixel-wise classifiers both identify and also classify all materials on the basis of their spectral curves (or pixels). Owing to the dimensionality of the remote sensing data of high spatial resolution along with a limited number of labelled samples, a remote sensing image of a high spatial resolution tends to suffer from something known as the Hughes phenomenon which can pose a serious problem. In order to overcome such a small-sample problem, there are several methods of learning like the Support Vector Machine (SVM) along with the other methods that are kernel based and these were introduced recently for a remote sensing classification of the image and this has shown a good performance. For the purpose of this work, an SVM along with Radial Basis Function (RBF) method was proposed. But, a feature learning approach for the classification of the hyperspectral image is based on the Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). The results of the experiment that were based on various image datasets that were hyperspectral which implies that the method proposed will be able to achieve a better performance of classification compared to other traditional methods like the SVM and the RBF kernel and also all conventional methods based on deep learning (CNN).
