Many empirical AMD models have been developed and used for orbit prediction and efforts continue to improve their accuracy in forecasting high-altitude atmospheric conditions. Previous studies have assessed these models at the height of 200 km to 600 km. In this paper, four state-of-the-art AMD models, i.e., MSISE90, MSISE00, JB2008 and DTM2013 are assessed for their orbit prediction (OP) capabilities by using a new data source of COSMIC satellite ephemerides at an orbital height of ~800 km, where the contribution of ions in the total AMD is more significant. A new testing model was developed by accounting for ion contribution based on the International Reference Ionosphere 2016 model, including many more ion species that are not accounted for in other AMD models. In the assessment, two periods of forty days were chosen in 2014-2015 and 2018-2019, representing solar maximum and minimum periods, respectively, to assess four existing AMD models and the proposed model. Thorough analyses were conducted to compare OP results using different AMD models with precise reference ephemerides of COSMIC satellites and based on various space weather indices. It is shown that the proposed model outperforms all other AMD models in terms of OP errors during the solar maximum period. During solar minimum, the drag acceleration is relatively small for COSMIC satellites. Assessment of all AMD models in the orbit prediction process tends to be contaminated by the remaining uncertainty sources, such as solar radiation pressure.

A parameterization of the cloud scattering polarization signal derived from GPM observations for microwave fast radative transfer models / Victoria Sol Galligani in IEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing, vol 59 n° 11 (November 2021)

Stratiform clouds show larger brightness temperature (TB) polarization differences (PDs), defined as the vertically polarized TB (TBV) minus the horizontally polarized TB (TBH), with ~10 K PD values at 89 GHz due to the presence of horizontally aligned snowflakes, while convective regions show smaller PD signals, as graupel and/or hail in the updraft tend to become randomly oriented. The launch of the global precipitation measurement (GPM) microwave imager (GMI) has extended the availability of microwave polarized observations to higher frequencies (166 GHz) in the tropics and midlatitudes, previously only available up to 89 GHz. This study analyzes one year of GMI observations to explore further the previously reported stable relationship between the PD and the observed TBs at 89 and 166 GHz, respectively. The latitudinal and seasonal variability is analyzed to propose a cloud scattering polarization parameterization of the PD-TB relationship, capable of reconstructing the PD signal from simulated TBs. Given that operational radiative transfer (RT) models do not currently simulate the cloud polarized signals, this is an alternative and simple solution to exploit the large number of cloud polarized observations available. The atmospheric radiative transfer simulator (ARTS) is coupled with the weather research and forecasting (WRF) model, in order to apply the proposed parameterization to the RT simulated TBs and hence infer the corresponding PD values, which show to reproduce the observed GMI PDs well.

Stochastic super-resolution for downscaling time-evolving atmospheric fields with a generative adversarial network / Jussi Leinonen in IEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing, Vol 59 n° 9 (September 2021)

The ability of conditional GANs to generate an ensemble of solutions for a given input lends itself naturally to stochastic downscaling, but the stochastic nature of GANs is not usually considered in super-resolution applications. Here, we introduce a recurrent, stochastic super-resolution GAN that can generate ensembles of time-evolving high-resolution atmospheric fields for an input consisting of a low-resolution sequence of images of the same field. We test the GAN using two data sets: one consisting of radar-measured precipitation from Switzerland; the other of cloud optical thickness derived from the Geostationary Earth Observing Satellite 16 (GOES-16). We find that the GAN can generate realistic, temporally consistent super-resolution sequences for both data sets. The statistical properties of the generated ensemble are analyzed using rank statistics, a method adapted from ensemble weather forecasting; these analyses indicate that the GAN produces close to the correct amount of variability in its outputs. As the GAN generator is fully convolutional, it can be applied after training to input images larger than the images used to train it. It is also able to generate time series much longer than the training sequences, as demonstrated by applying the generator to a three-month data set of the precipitation radar data. The source code to our GAN is available at https://github.com/jleinonen/downscaling-rnn-gan.

Atmospheric correction to passive microwave brightness temperature in snow cover mapping over china / Yubao Qiu in IEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing, vol 59 n° 8 (August 2021)  

Public [article]  inIEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing > vol 59 n° 8 (August 2021) . - pp 6482 - 6495 Titre : Atmospheric correction to passive microwave brightness temperature in snow cover mapping over china Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Yubao Qiu, Auteur ; Lijuan Shi, Auteur ; Juha Lemmetyinen, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 6482 - 6495 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image radar et applications [Termes IGN] capteur passif [Termes IGN] Chine [Termes IGN] correction atmosphérique [Termes IGN] image NOAA [Termes IGN] image SSMIS [Termes IGN] image Terra-MODIS [Termes IGN] manteau neigeux [Termes IGN] modèle atmosphérique [Termes IGN] neige [Termes IGN] série temporelle [Termes IGN] télédétection en hyperfréquence [Termes IGN] température de luminance [Termes IGN] teneur en vapeur d'eau Résumé : (auteur) Variable atmospheric conditions are typically ignored in the retrieval of geophysical parameters of the Earth’s surface when using spaceborne passive microwave observations. However, high frequencies, for example, 91.7 GHz, are sensitive to variable atmospheric absorption, even in winter’s dry conditions. In this article, the influence of variable atmospheric absorption on snow cover extent (SCE) mapping was quantitatively investigated. A physical method was derived to enable atmospheric correction for variable atmospheric conditions. The total column precipitable water vapor (TPWV) from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) was parametrized into transmittances in this correction method. The corrected brightness temperature at 19 and 91.7 GHz from the Special Sensor Microwave Imager Sounder (SSMIS) was applied to the threshold algorithm for snow mapping over China. Compared with the Interactive Multisensor Snow and Ice Mapping System (IMS) data in winter from 2012 to 2013, for Qinghai–Tibet plateau (QTP), a significant improvement after correction was obtained from February to March over ephemeral and shallow snow, where the largest daily improvement of accuracy is up to 20%. The accuracy (incl. precision, recall, and F1 index) improved on average is from 0.77 (0.60, 0.68, and 0.63) to 0.79 (0.69, 0.7, and 0.68) over the full winter time from December to March. Over forest-rich Northeast China, where snow in winter is thicker, small improvement was observed at the onset of the snow season and over snow margin area. It was evidenced that high frequency is a promising way of snow cover mapping with the proposed atmospheric correction method.

Cloud detection from paired CrIS water vapor and CO₂ channels using machine learning techniques / Miao Tian in IEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing, vol 59 n° 4 (April 2021)  

Public [article]  inIEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing > vol 59 n° 4 (April 2021) . - pp 2781 - 2793 Titre : Cloud detection from paired CrIS water vapor and CO₂ channels using machine learning techniques Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Miao Tian, Auteur ; Hao Chen, Auteur ; Guanghui Liu, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 2781 - 2793 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image optique [Termes IGN] apprentissage automatique [Termes IGN] classification par Perceptron multicouche [Termes IGN] classification par séparateurs à vaste marge [Termes IGN] détection des nuages [Termes IGN] dioxyde de carbone [Termes IGN] image infrarouge [Termes IGN] modèle atmosphérique [Termes IGN] modèle de transfert radiatif [Termes IGN] régression linéaire [Termes IGN] vapeur d'eau Résumé : (auteur) Accurate cloud detection using infrared (IR) data is very challenging due to the limitations and uncertainties from many aspects in the satellite IR remote sensing. This article proposes an end-to-end cloud detection method for the Cross-track IR Sounder (CrIS) using machine learning (ML) techniques. The brightness temperatures from paired CrIS channels in the longwave and midwave water vapor bands and the longwave and shortwave CO 2 bands are used. After obtaining the linear regression coefficients for each of the selected channel pairs, a complete set of CrIS full spectral resolution (FSR) cloud detection index (FCDI) is derived from the temperature difference between the regression and observation for each channel pair. It is shown that FCDI captures cloud location and structure well by comparing with the cloud products (CPs) from the Visible IR Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS). After collocating FCDI with VIIRS CP, ML techniques such as the extreme learning machine, support vector machine, and multilayer perceptron are used to train the collocated FCDIs for cloud detection. Simulation results show that the accuracy of FCDI cloud detection is slightly above 80%. Moreover, the results encourage the use of water vapor bands in FCDI, in addition to CO 2 bands.
