  • The land surface temperature (LST) can be defined as a weighted average temperature of components which constitute a pixel. The coefficients of split-window algorithm for MTSAT-1R were obtained by means of a statistical regression analysis from radiative transfer simulations using MODTRAN 4.0 for a wide range of atmospheric, satellite viewing angle (SVA) and lapse rate conditions. 6 types of atmospheric profile data imbedded in the MODTRAN 4 are used for the radiative transfer simulations. The RMSE is clearly larger on warm and humid profiles than cold and dry profiles, especially when the satellite viewing angle and lapse rate are large. The derivation of LST equations according to the atmospheric profiles clearly decreased the RMSE without regard to the SVA and lapse rate. The bias and RMSE are decreased as the more controls factors included. This preliminary result indicates that the characteristics of atmosphere, SVA and lapse rate should be included in the LST equation.

  • Ground-based polarimetric scatterometers have been effective tools to monitor the growth of crop with multi-polarization and frequencies and various incident angles. An important advantage of these systems that can be exploited is temporal observation of a specific crop target. Polarimetric backscatter data at L-, C- and X-bands were acquired every 10 minutes. We analyzed the relationships between L-, C- and X-band signatures, biophysical measurements over the whole corn growth period. The Vertical transmit and Vertical receive polarization (VV) backscattering coefficients for all bands were greater than those of the Horizontal transmit and Horizontal receive polarization (HH) until early-July, and then thereafter HH-polarization was greater than VV-polarization or Horizontal transmit and Vertical receive polarization (HV) until the harvesting stage (Day Of Year, DOY 240). The results of correlation analysis between the backscattering coefficients for all bands and corn growth data showed that L-band HH-polarization (L-HH) was the most suited for monitoring the fresh weight ($r=0.95^{***}$), dry weight ($r=0.95^{***}$), leaf area index ($r=0.86^{**}$), and vegetation water content ($r=0.93^{***}$). Retrieval equations were developed for estimating corn growth parameters using L-HH. The results indicated that L-HH could be used for estimating the vegetation biophysical parameters considered here with high accuracy. Those results can be useful in determining frequency and polarization of satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar stem and in designing a future ground-based microwave system for a long-term monitoring of corn.

  • Land Surface Temperature (LST) is the radiological surface temperature which observed by satellite. It is very important factor to estimate condition of the Earth such as Global warming and Heat island. For these reasons, many countries operate their own satellite to observe the Earth condition. South Korea has many landcovers such as forest, crop land, urban. Therefore, if we want to retrieve accurate LST, we would use high-resolution satellite data. In this study, we made LSTs with 4 LST retrieval algorithms which are used widely with Landsat-8 data which has 30 m spatial resolution. We retrieved LST using equations of Price, Becker et al. Prata, Coll et al. and they showed very similar spatial distribution. We validated 4 LSTs with Moderate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) LST data to find the most suitable algorithm. As a result, every LST shows 2.160 ~ 3.387 K of RMSE. And LST by Prata algorithm show the lowest RMSE than others. With this validation result, we choose LST by Prata algorithm as the most suitable LST to South Korea.

  • 다편파 레이더 산란계 시스템 (L, C, X-밴드 안테나)에서 얻어진 편파별 후방산란계수와 토양수분함량과의 상관성을 분석하고 후방산란계수를 이용 토양수분함량을 추정하고자 하였다. 콩 생육시기에 따른 밴드별 후방산란계수 변화 관측 결과 L-밴드 후방산란계수가 C-, X-밴드후방산란계수보다 높게 나타났고, 모든 안테나 밴드에서 콩 생육초기에는 VV-편파가 HH, HV-편파보다 후방산란계수가 높게 나타났다. HH-편파가 VV-편파보다 후방산란계수가 높게 나타나는 시기는 밴드에 따라 차이를 보였다. L-밴드의 경우 7월 20일 (DOY 200), C, X-밴드는 7월 30일 (DOY 210)부터 HH-편파가 다른 편파들 보다 후방산란계수가 높게 나타났다. 모든 안테나 편파별 후방산란계수가 9월 29일 (DOY 271)에 최대값을 보였고, 그 이후 수확기 (DOY 294) 까지 감소하였다. L-밴드 HH-편파와 VV-편파 간의 차이는 꼬투리가 생성되는 착협기 (R3, DOY 228) 부터 다른 밴드에 비해 크게 나타났고, 반면에 C-밴드 HH-편파와 VV-편파 간의 차이는 착협성기 (R4, DOY 242) 이후 증가폭이 크게 나타났다. 후방산란계수와 토양수분함량과의 변화를 분석한 결과 생육기간동안 토양수분함량 변이가 컸고, 전체 생육기간에서는 모든 밴드별 후방산란계수와 토양수분함량 간에 상관성이 나타나지 않았다. 하지만 엽면적지수가 2 이하 (R2, DOY 224) 일 때 후방산란계수가 증가함에 따라 토양수분함량도 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 밴드별 후방산란계수와 토양수분함량과의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 전체 생육기간에서는 모든 밴드에서 두 변수간의 상관계수가 낮게 나타났다 ($r{\leq}0.50$). 반면에 엽면적지수 2 이하 일 때 모든 밴드에서 후방산란계수와 토양수분함량과의 상관계수가 전체 생육단계에서 조사한 것 보다 높게 나타났다. L-밴드 후방산란계수가 C-, X-밴드 후방산란계수 보다 토양수분함량과의 상관성이 높게 나타났고 ($r{\geq}0.84$), L-밴드 HH-편파가 상관계수가 가장 높았다 (r=0.90). X-밴드 후방산란계수는 L-, C-밴드 후방산란계수보다 상관계수가 낮게 나타났다 ($r{\leq}0.71$). 후방산란계수를 이용하여 토양수분함량 추정 모형식을 작성하였다. L-밴드 HH-편파 후방산란계수와 토양수분함량과의 관계를 비교해 본 결과 결정계수가 높게 나타났다($R^2=0.92$). 본 연구를 통해 레이더 산란계 시스템에서 얻어진 후방산란계수를 이용하여 토양수분함량을 추정할 수 있음을 확인하였다.
