During the COVID-19 pandemic, several studies started to use satellite measurements to evaluate changes in air quality in many different regions worldwide. However, although satellite data is continuously validated, it is known that its accuracy may vary between monitored areas, requiring regionalized quality assessments. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate whether satellites could measure changes in the air quality of the state of São Paulo, Brazil, during the COVID-19 outbreak; and to verify the relationship between satellite-based data [Tropospheric NO2 column density and Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD)] and ground-based concentrations [NO2 and particulate material (PM; coarse: PM10 and fine: PM2.5)]. For this purpose, tropospheric NO2 obtained from the TROPOMI sensor and AOD retrieved from MODIS sensor data by using the Multi-Angle Implementation of Atmospheric Correction (MAIAC) algorithm were compared with concentrations obtained from 50 automatic ground monitoring stations. The results showed low correlations between PM and AOD. For PM10, most stations showed correlations lower than 0.2, which were not significant. The results for PM2.5 were similar, but some stations showed good correlations for specific periods (before or during the COVID-19 outbreak). Satellite-based Tropospheric NO2 proved to be a good predictor for NO2 concentrations at ground level. Considering all stations with NO2 measurements, correlations >0.6 were observed, reaching 0.8 for specific stations and periods. In general, it was observed that regions with a more industrialized profile had the best correlations, in contrast with rural areas. In addition, it was observed about 57% reductions in tropospheric NO2 throughout the state of São Paulo during the COVID-19 outbreak. Variations in air pollutants were linked to the region economic vocation, since there were reductions in industrialized areas (at least 50% of the industrialized areas showed >20% decrease in NO2) and increases in areas with farming and livestock characteristics (about 70% of those areas showed increase in NO2). Our results demonstrate that Tropospheric NO2 column densities can serve as good predictors of NO2 concentrations at ground level. For MAIAC-AOD, a weak relationship was observed, requiring the evaluation of other possible predictors to describe the relationship with PM. Thus, it is concluded that regionalized assessment of satellite data accuracy is essential for assertive estimates on a regional/local level. Good quality information retrieved at specific polluted areas does not assure a worldwide use of remote sensor data.

Establishing a high-precision real-time ZTD model of China with GPS and ERA5 historical data and its application in PPP / Pengfei Xia in GPS solutions, vol 27 n° 1 (January 2023)

First, the zenith tropospheric delay (ZTD) is extracted in real time with high accuracy by combining the data of more than 500 GNSS stations in the Crustal Movement Observation Network of China (CMONOC) and national reference station network (NRSN); second, a grid model of the elevation normalization model (ENM) in China using ERA5 data is constructed, which takes into account the annual, semiannual and daily cycles. The ZTD estimated by GNSS stations at different heights based on precise point positioning (PPP) is normalized to a uniform height based on ENM; in addition, the optimal smoothing factors of the Gauss distance weighting function in different seasons are determined based on ERA5, which contributes to improved accuracy of ZTD interpolated from GNSS-derived ZTD to ZTD at grid points; finally, a real-time 1° × 1°ZTD grid model of China is created; the broadcast interval is extended to 6 min from few seconds. The new ZTD model has been evaluated using the data of 15 GNSS stations in China in 2020. The test results show that the new ZTD model deviates from the reference value with a mean value better than − 0.09 cm and RMSE, better than 1.44 cm compared with the ZTD estimated by post-processing GNSS, while the mean value of the deviation is -0.13 cm, and the RMSE is approximately 3.11 cm compared with radiosonde-derived ZTD. The new ZTD grid model can be used to enhance GNSS/PPP. Two weeks of GNSS observations, one week in winter and another in summer, were randomly collected for PPP processing. The statistical results show the convergence time in the vertical directions is shortened by 37.4% and 38.6% at the 95% and 68% confidence levels after ZTD constraints are applied to the float PPP solution, respectively.

In this study, Hyperspectral Optimization Process Exemplar (HOPE) was modified, renamed as M-HOPE, to simultaneously obtain bathymetry and benthic habitat in shallow waters in Xisha Island, China. A local lookup table (LUT) for benthic reflectance spectra was established. Validation using in situ measurements demonstrated good performance of M-HOPE with a R2 of 0.76 for bathymetry using the local LUT. Application of M-HOPE to Sentinel-2A imagery further proved good accuracy of M-HOPE derived bathymetry with a R2 of 0.86 against in situ observations and a R2 of 0.92 against ICESat-2 measurements. M-HOPE-derived benthic classification also agreed well with field observations with probability of detection (POD) >0.6 and false alarm ratio (FAR) Numéro de notice : A2022-907 Affiliation des auteurs : non IGN Thématique : IMAGERIE Nature : Article nature-HAL : ArtAvecCL-RevueIntern DOI : 10.1109/TGRS.2022.3229029 Date de publication en ligne : 14/12/2022 En ligne : https://doi.org/10.1109/TGRS.2022.3229029 Format de la ressource électronique : URL article Permalink : https://documentation.ensg.eu/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=102338 [article]

Multi-frequency simulation of ionospheric scintillation using a phase-screen model / Fernando D. Nunes in Navigation : journal of the Institute of navigation, vol 69 n° 4 (Fall 2022)

The algorithm uses a single-layer phase-screen model of the ionosphere and the scintillation is expressed as a Huygens-Fresnel integral (HFI). By assuming a specially-tailored random phase screen, the HFI can be expressed in closed form as a combination of Fresnel integrals. We statistically characterize the amplitude and phase computed by the HFI for different values of the scintillation index S4. Results for the L1, L2, and L5 bands were obtained and compared with real data, showing good agreement. Some of the advantages of the proposed technique are: (a) the amplitude and phase of the scintillation process are simultaneously obtained; (b) arbitrarily long ionospheric scintillation time series with pre-defined stationary characteristics are synthesized; and (c) several scintillation time series corresponding to different carrier frequencies are generated using a common phase-screen model.

Navigation and Ionosphere Characterization Using High-Frequency Signals: A Performance Analysis / Yoav Baumgarten in Navigation : journal of the Institute of navigation, vol 69 n° 4 (Fall 2022)

The method relies on pseudorange and beat carrier-phase measurements of signals that propagate in the ionosphere along curved trajectories, where signals are refracted back downwards from the ionosphere. It has been demonstrated that the location of a receiver can be determined if several signals, broadcast from beacons at different locations, are received and processed at a user receiver. A challenge of determining exact signal paths is the uncertainty in the ionosphere’s electron density distribution. This is addressed by a batch filter that simultaneously estimates the receiver position along with corrections to a parametric model of the ionosphere. A previous paper developed the theory and batch filter for this concept. The present study examines its potential performance. Total horizontal position errors on the order of tens to hundreds of meters are achieved, depending on the case’s characteristics.
