A novel semi-empirical model for crop leaf area index retrieval using SAR co- and cross-polarizations
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
The retrieval of continuous leaf area index (LAI) in space and time from remote sensing is beneficial for cropland monitoring and management. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) with the advantages of all-weather operation and fine spatial resolutions has been utilized in various agricultural applications. Although the water cloud model (WCM) has been extensively used for LAI estimation over croplands, it is modified for application to crop canopies with large gaps. The requirement of prior information on soil moisture is also a hinderance for the model application. In this study, WCM is theoretically modified to consider the correlation of active microwave propagation through the canopy in downward and upward directions. Such a modification is particularly important for sparse vegetation with large gaps between crop plants in the early stage of the growing season. A parameter with explicit physical meaning, i.e. the full-vegetation backscattering coefficient, was defined to simplify our model scheme and make the model applicable for the whole growing season. In addition, a physics-based SAR data processing scheme is developed to entangle the influences of LAI and soil moisture on SAR backscatter by taking advantage of the multiple polarizations of RADARSAT-2 (R2) SAR data. In this way, LAI was estimated using modified WCM without the prior knowledge of soil moisture. To evaluate LAI retrieved from the R2 datasets (R2 LAI), ground-based LAI measurements were made at the experimental area of SMAPVEX16-MB in Canada with twenty approximately 800 m х 800 m plots in soybeans and corn. R2 LAI was well correlated to these ground-based LAI ( n = 15, R 2 = 0.63, RMSE = 0.99 m 2 ·m −2 for soybeans; n = 5, R 2 = 0.66, RMSE = 1.20 m 2 ·m −2 for corn). LAI was also retrieved from optical data acquired by Sentinel-2/MSI (S2), denoted as S2 LAI. The R2 LAI and S2 LAI are well correlated and achieved coefficients of determination (R 2 ) of 0.76 and 0.71 and root mean square errors (RMSE) of 1.1 and 1.4 m 2 ·m −2 for soybeans and corn, respectively. The seasonal variations of R2 LAI and S2 LAI are generally similar except at the end of the growing season when S2 LAI is considerably larger than R2 LAI. S2 LAI followed the trend of the reduction in leaf chlorophyll content, while R2 LAI reduced only slightly due to the decrease in leaf water content near the end the growing season. R2 LAI represents the total standing leaf area useful for surface energy balance estimation, while S2 LAI responds to green leaf area useful for crop productivity modeling.
