With the climate becoming warmer and wetter, it is essential to study the glacier elevation changes in this region. We used TerraSAR-X/TanDEM-X images, SRTM DEM data and differential synthetic aperture radar interferometry (DInSAR) technology to analyse the glacier elevation change. Results show that the glacier elevation is changing at the rate of –0.35 m yr−1 in the western Qilian mountains between 2000 and 2014. The glacier elevation thinning at –0.40 m yr−1 in the southern part of this region is more severe than that in the northern part (–0.29 m yr−1). The long-term equilibrium line altitude, calculated from glacier elevation change in each elevation bin, was at 5150 m, which is equal to that inferred from glacial area distribution in each elevation bin. Glacier shrinkage is related to air temperature increasing.

Extraction of sea ice cover by Sentinel-1 SAR based on support vector machine with unsupervised generation of training data / Xiao-Ming Li in IEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing, vol 59 n° 4 (April 2021)

The classification basis includes the S1 radar backscatter and texture features, which are calculated from S1 data using the gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM). Different from previous methods where appropriate samples are manually selected to train the SVM to classify sea ice and open water, we proposed a method of unsupervised generation of the training samples based on two GLCM texture features, i.e., entropy and homogeneity, that have contrasting characteristics on sea ice and open water. We eliminate the most uncertainty of selecting training samples in machine learning and achieve automatic classification of sea ice and open water by using S1 EW data. The comparisons based on a few cases show good agreements between the synthetic aperture radar (SAR)-derived sea ice cover using the proposed method and visual inspections, of which the accuracy reaches approximately 90%–95%. Besides this, compared with the analyzed sea ice cover data Ice Mapping System (IMS) based on 728 S1 EW images, the accuracy of the extracted sea ice cover by using S1 data is more than 80%.

Time-series snowmelt detection over the Antarctic using Sentinel-1 SAR images on Google Earth Engine / Dong Liang in Remote sensing of environment, Vol 256 (April 2020)  

Public [article]  inRemote sensing of environment > Vol 256 (April 2020) . - n° 112318 Titre : Time-series snowmelt detection over the Antarctic using Sentinel-1 SAR images on Google Earth Engine Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Dong Liang, Auteur ; Huadong Guo, Auteur ; Lu Zhang, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 112318 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de télédétection [Termes IGN] albedo [Termes IGN] Antarctique [Termes IGN] calotte glaciaire [Termes IGN] changement climatique [Termes IGN] coefficient de rétrodiffusion [Termes IGN] distribution spatiale [Termes IGN] fonte des glaces [Termes IGN] Google Earth Engine [Termes IGN] image radar moirée [Termes IGN] image Sentinel-SAR [Termes IGN] montée du niveau de la mer [Termes IGN] série temporelle Résumé : (auteur) The Antarctic ice sheet is an important mass of glacier ice. It is particularly sensitive to climate change, and the flow of Antarctica's inland glaciers into the sea, accelerated by collapsing ice shelves, threatens global sea level rise. The amount of snowmelt on the surface of the ice sheet is an important metric for accurately assessing surface material loss and albedo change, which affect the stability of the ice sheet. This study proposes a framework for quickly extracting time-series freeze-thaw information at the continental scale and 40 m resolution by taking advantage of the huge amount of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data acquired by Sentinel-1 satellites over the Antarctic, available for rapid processing on Google Earth Engine. Co-orbit normalization is used in the proposed framework to establish a unified standard of judgement by reducing the variations in the backscattering coefficient introduced by observation geometry, terrain fluctuations, and melt conditions between images acquired at different times. We implemented the framework to produce a massive dataset of both monthly freeze-thaw information over the Antarctic and higher temporal resolution freeze-thaw information for the Larsen C ice shelf from 2015 to 2019, with overall accuracies of 93% verified by a manual visual interpretation method and 84% evaluated from automatic weather station temperatures. Due to its effectiveness and robustness, the framework can be used to analyse the spatiotemporal distribution of snowmelt, the change in melt area, and anomalous melt events in Antarctica, especially those in Larsen C caused by foehn wind.

Denoising Sentinel-1 extra-wide mode cross-polarization images over sea ice / Yan Sun in IEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing, Vol 59 n° 3 (March 2021)  

Public [article]  inIEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing > Vol 59 n° 3 (March 2021) . - pp 2116 - 2131 Titre : Denoising Sentinel-1 extra-wide mode cross-polarization images over sea ice Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Yan Sun, Auteur ; Xiao-Ming Li, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 2116 - 2131 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image radar et applications [Termes IGN] Austral (océan) [Termes IGN] bruit thermique [Termes IGN] étalonnage radiométrique [Termes IGN] filtrage du bruit [Termes IGN] glace de mer [Termes IGN] image Sentinel-SAR [Termes IGN] image TOPSAR [Termes IGN] polarisation croisée [Termes IGN] rapport signal sur bruit Résumé : (Auteur) Sentinel-1 (S1) extra-wide (EW) swath data in cross-polarization (horizontal–vertical, HV or vertical–horizontal, VH) are strongly affected by the scalloping effect and thermal noise, particularly over areas with weak backscattered signals, such as sea surfaces. Although noise vectors in both the azimuth and range directions are provided in the standard S1 EW data for subtraction, the residual thermal noise still significantly affects sea ice detection by the EW data. In this article, we improve the denoising method developed in previous studies to remove the additive noise for the S1 EW data in cross-polarization. Furthermore, we propose a new method for eliminating the residual noise (i.e., multiplicative noise) at the subswath boundaries of the EW data, which cannot be well processed by simply subtracting the reconstructed 2-D noise field. The proposed method of removing both the additive and multiplicative noise was applied to EW HV-polarized images processed using different Instrument Processing Facility (IPF) versions. The results suggest that the proposed algorithm significantly improves the quality of EW HV-polarized images under various sea ice conditions and sea states in the marginal ice zone (MIZ) of the Arctic. This is of great support for the utilization of cross-polarization synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images in wide swaths for intensive sea ice monitoring in polar regions.
