[PMID: 37866530 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.117430] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2023] [Revised: 10/05/2023] [Accepted: 10/15/2023] [Indexed: 10/24/2023]
Abstract
Chlorophyll-a (Chla) in inland waters is one of the most significant optical parameters of aquatic ecosystem assessment, and long-term and daily Chla concentration monitoring has the potential to facilitate in early warning of algal blooms. MOD09 products have multiple observation advantages (higher temporal, spatial resolution and signal-to-noise ratio), and play an extremely important role in the remote sensing of water color. For developing a high accuracy machine learning model of remotely estimating Chla concentration in inland waters based on MOD09 products, this study proposed an assumption that the accuracy of Chla concentration retrieval will be improved after classifying water bodies into three groups by suspended particulate matter (SPM) concentration. A total of 10 commonly used machine learning models were compared and evaluated in this study, including random forest regressor (RFR), deep neural networks (DNN), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), and convolutional neural network (CNN). Altogether, 41 basic bands and 820 band ratios between the 41 bands were filtered by measuring their correlation with Ln(Chla) and several bands brought into different machine learning models. Results demonstrated that the construction of Chla concentration remote estimation model based on SPM classification could significantly improve the correlation between Ln(Chla) and 41 basic spectral band combinations, the correlation between Ln(Chla) and 820 band ratios, and the model verification R2 from 0.41 to 0.83. Furthermore, B3, B20, and B32 were finally selected based on correlation with SPM to classify SPM and the classification accuracy could reach 0.9. Finally, we concluded that RFR model performed best via comparing the R2, RMSE, and MAPE. By comparing the relative contribution of input bands in different groups, B3 contributed most to three groups. The model constructed in this study has promising prospects for promotion and application in other inland waters, and could provide systematic research reference for subsequent research.

Huang S, Wang H, Liu G, Huang J, Zhu J. System comprehensive risk assessment of urban rainstorm-induced flood-water pollution disasters. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:59826-59843.

Abstract
The urban rainstorm-induced flood-water pollution disaster is a kind of systematic risk, which may induce secondary disasters that can lead to more serious damage, so this paper first adopts the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method to determine the flood risk by combining with the submergence depth derived from the risk field and other factors data, and then the grid environmental risk evaluation method, which is improved by increasing the induced possibility based on Bayesian theory, is used to evaluate the flood-induced water pollution risk, and the system comprehensive risk of rainstorm-induced flood-water pollution disasters is finally obtained by constructing risk level matrix, which can well depict the coupling superposition effect. Shenzhen City is selected as the study area, and the results showed that the area with high-risk of both flood and water pollution only accounts for about 0.14% of the total area, mainly distributed in the eastern junction of Longgang district and Pingshan district, where the rainstorms occur frequently and the enterprise risk sources are dense. The system comprehensive risk is mostly very low-low and very high-low, accounting for more than 76% of the total area. It is always necessary to pay attention not only to the areas with high risk level of both disasters, but also to the areas with high risk level of one disaster. The method proposed in this study can not only quantitatively reveal the formation of the induced risk, but also provide reference for early warning.

Abstract
The method of making precise measurements of remote water depth using mmWave technology has great potential for preventing urban waterlogging. To achieve waterlogging prevention, the mmWave system needs to measure the water depth change accurately with a short acquisition time. This paper demonstrates a new accurate mmWave water depth measurement system based on Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) Radar with a center frequency of 77 GHz. To improve distance resolution and lower acquisition time, the Swept Frequency-Cross Correlation (SFCC) algorithm is proposed for the first time to improve the distance computation resolution by 9× and lower time complexity from O(n·logn) to O(n) compared to traditional FFT-based FMCW radar distance computation. A prototype system equipped with a humidity sensor, a processor module and TI’s FMCW radar module is designed for monitoring urban floods in cities. Using the prototype system with the proposed SFCC, the depth measurement error is reduced from 4.5 cm to less than 5 mm, compared to the default radar post-processing algorithm embedded in the radar module.

A Framework for Calculating Peak Discharge and Flood Inundation in Ungauged Urban Watersheds Using Remotely Sensed Precipitation Data: A Case Study in Freetown, Sierra Leone. REMOTE SENSING 2021.

Abstract
As the human population increases, land cover is converted from vegetation to urban development, causing increased runoff from precipitation events. Additional runoff leads to more frequent and more intense floods. In urban areas, these flood events are often catastrophic due to infrastructure built along the riverbank and within the floodplains. Sufficient data allow for flood modeling used to implement proper warning signals and evacuation plans, however, in least developed countries (LDC), the lack of field data for precipitation and river flows makes hydrologic and hydraulic modeling difficult. Within the most recent data revolution, the availability of remotely sensed data for land use/land cover (LULC), flood mapping, and precipitation estimates has increased, however, flood mapping in urban areas of LDC is still limited due to low resolution of remotely sensed data (LULC, soil properties, and terrain), cloud cover, and the lack of field data for model calibration. This study utilizes remotely sensed precipitation, LULC, soil properties, and digital elevation model data to estimate peak discharge and map simulated flood extents of urban rivers in ungauged watersheds for current and future LULC scenarios. A normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) analysis was proposed to predict a future LULC. Additionally, return period precipitation events were calculated using the theoretical extreme value distribution approach with two remotely sensed precipitation datasets. Three calculation methods for peak discharge (curve number and lag method, curve number and graphical TR-55 method, and the rational equation) were performed and compared to a separate Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) analysis to determine the method that best represents urban rivers. HEC-RAS was then used to map the simulated flood extents from the peak discharges and ArcGIS helped to determine infrastructure and population affected by the floods. Finally, the simulated flood extents from HEC-RAS were compared to historic flood event points, images of flood events, and global surface water maximum water extent data. This analysis indicates that where field data are absent, remotely sensed monthly precipitation data from Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) where GPM is the Global Precipitation Mission can be used with the curve number and lag method to approximate peak discharges and input into HEC-RAS to represent the simulated flood extents experienced. This work contains a case study for seven urban rivers in Freetown, Sierra Leone.

Abstract
Lakes have been identified as an important indicator of climate change and a finer lake area can better reflect the changes. In this paper, we propose an effective unsupervised deep gradient network (UDGN) to generate a higher resolution lake area from remote sensing images. By exploiting the power of deep learning, UDGN models the internal recurrence of information inside the single image and its corresponding gradient map to generate images with higher spatial resolution. The gradient map is derived from the input image to provide important geographical information. Since the training samples are only extracted from the input image, UDGN can adapt to different settings per image. Based on the superior adaptability of the UDGN model, two strategies are proposed for super-resolution (SR) mapping of lakes from multispectral remote sensing images. Finally, Landsat 8 and MODIS (moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer) images from two study areas on the Tibetan Plateau in China were used to evaluate the performance of UDGN. Compared with four unsupervised SR methods, UDGN obtained the best SR results as well as lake extraction results in terms of both quantitative and visual aspects. The experiments prove that our approach provides a promising way to break through the limitations of median-low resolution remote sensing images in lake change monitoring, and ultimately support finer lake applications.

Obtaining Urban Waterlogging Depths from Video Images Using Synthetic Image Data. REMOTE SENSING 2020. [DOI: 10.3390/rs12061014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Reference objects in video images can be used to indicate urban waterlogging depths. The detection of reference objects is the key step to obtain waterlogging depths from video images. Object detection models with convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been utilized to detect reference objects. These models require a large number of labeled images as the training data to ensure the applicability at a city scale. However, it is hard to collect a sufficient number of urban flooding images containing valuable reference objects, and manually labeling images is time-consuming and expensive. To solve the problem, we present a method to synthesize image data as the training data. Firstly, original images containing reference objects and original images with water surfaces are collected from open data sources, and reference objects and water surfaces are cropped from these original images. Secondly, the reference objects and water surfaces are further enriched via data augmentation techniques to ensure the diversity. Finally, the enriched reference objects and water surfaces are combined to generate a synthetic image dataset with annotations. The synthetic image dataset is further used for training an object detection model with CNN. The waterlogging depths are calculated based on the reference objects detected by the trained model. A real video dataset and an artificial image dataset are used to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method. The results show that the detection model trained using the synthetic image dataset can effectively detect reference objects from images, and it can achieve acceptable accuracies of waterlogging depths based on the detected reference objects. The proposed method has the potential to monitor waterlogging depths at a city scale.

Abstract
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have now become very popular in photogrammetric and remote-sensing applications. Every day, these vehicles are used in new applications, new terrains, and new tasks, facing new problems. One of these problems is connected with flight altitude and the determined ground sample distance in a specific area, especially within cities and industrial and construction areas. The problem is that a safe flight altitude and camera parameters do not meet the required or demanded ground sampling distance or the geometrical and texture quality. In the cases where the flight level cannot be reduced and there is no technical ability to change the UAV camera or lens, the author proposes the use of a super-resolution algorithm for enhancing images acquired by UAVs and, consequently, increase the geometrical and interpretation quality of the final photogrammetric product. The main study objective was to utilize super-resolution (SR) algorithms to improve the geometric and interpretative quality of the final photogrammetric product, assess its impact on the accuracy of the photogrammetric processing and on the traditional digital photogrammetry workflow. The research concept assumes a comparative analysis of photogrammetric products obtained on the basis of data collected from small, commercial UAVs and products obtained from the same data but additionally processed by the super-resolution algorithm. As the study concludes, the photogrammetric products that are created as a result of the algorithms’ operation on high-altitude images show a comparable quality to the reference products from low altitudes and, in some cases, even improve their quality.

Abstract
Wetland flooding is significant for the flora and fauna of wetlands. High temporal resolution remote sensing images are widely used for the timely mapping of wetland flooding but have a limitation of their relatively low spatial resolutions. In this study, a novel method based on random forests and spatial attraction models (RFSAM) was proposed to improve the accuracy of sub-pixel mapping of wetland flooding (SMWF) using remote sensing images. A random forests-based SMWF algorithm (RM-SMWF) was developed firstly, and a comprehensive complexity index of a mixed pixel was formulated. Then the RFSAM-SMWF method was developed. Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) images of two wetlands of international importance included in the Ramsar List were used to evaluate RFSAM-SMWF against three other SMWF methods, and it consistently achieved more accurate sub-pixel mapping results in terms of visual and quantitative assessments in the two wetlands. The effects of the number of trees in random forests and the complexity threshold on the mapping accuracy of RFSAM-SMWF were also discussed. The results of this study improve the mapping accuracy of wetland flooding from medium-low spatial resolution remote sensing images and therefore benefit the environmental studies of wetlands.

Abstract
Lakes have an important role in human life and the ecological environment, but they are easily affected by human activity and climate change, especially around urban areas. Hence, it is critical to extract water with a high precision method and monitor long-term sequence dynamic changes in lakes. As the greatest natural lake of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, Baiyangdian Lake has a significant function in human life, socio-economic development, and regional ecological balance. This lake area has shown large changes due to human activity and climate change. The change monitoring process of the water surface is of great significance in providing support for the management and protection of the lake. The Spectrum Matching based on Discrete Particle Swarm Optimization (SMDPSO) method is a new, robust, and low-cost method for water extraction, that has obvious advantages in extracting complex water surfaces. In this paper, the SMDPSO method was used to extract the water surface of Baiyangdian Lake by Landsat images from 1984 to 2018. This method has a good effect on complex water surface extraction with vegetation, shadows, and so forth, and the Landsat images have higher resolution and longer time series. The main contents and results of this paper are as follows: (1) We verified the applicability of the SMDPSO method in the Baiyangdian Lake using visual interpretation and correlation analysis. The relative errors between observed and extracted results were all less than 5% in spring, summer, and fall, and the correlation coefficient between the water area and water level was 0.96. (2) According to seasonal verification and comparison of the extraction results, the SMDPSO method was used to extract the water surface area of Baiyangdian Lake during spring of the years 1984–2018. Water area changes of Baiyangdian Lake can be divided into four periods: Dry period (1984–1988), degraded period (1989–2000), stable period (2000–2008), and recovery period (2008–2018). The water area reached a maximum of 280 km2 in 1989 and a minimum of 44 km2 in 2002. (3) The possible causes of the changes in the water area of Baiyangdian Lake were also analyzed. The changes were caused by climate and human activities during the first and second periods, but mainly human activities during the third and fourth periods. In fact, effective policies combined with water conservancy projects were directly conducive to improving or even recovering the water and ecological environment of Baiyangdian Lake. Considering its importance for the benign development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region and the construction of the Xiong’an New Area, a policy is necessary to ensure that the lake’s ecological environment will not be destroyed under the premise of economic development.

Abstract
In recent years the spatial resolutions of remote sensing images have been improved greatly. However, a higher spatial resolution image does not always lead to a better result of automatic scene classification. Visual attention is an important characteristic of the human visual system, which can effectively help to classify remote sensing scenes. In this study, a novel visual attention feature extraction algorithm was proposed, which extracted visual attention features through a multiscale process. And a fuzzy classification method using visual attention features (FC-VAF) was developed to perform high resolution remote sensing scene classification. FC-VAF was evaluated by using remote sensing scenes from widely used high resolution remote sensing images, including IKONOS, QuickBird, and ZY-3 images. FC-VAF achieved more accurate classification results than the others according to the quantitative accuracy evaluation indices. We also discussed the role and impacts of different decomposition levels and different wavelets on the classification accuracy. FC-VAF improves the accuracy of high resolution scene classification and therefore advances the research of digital image analysis and the applications of high resolution remote sensing images.

Abstract
Subpixel mapping technology can determine the specific location of different objects in the mixed pixel and effectively solve the uncertainty of the ground features spatial distribution in traditional classification technology. Existing methods based on linear optimization encounter the premature and local convergence of the optimization algorithm. This paper proposes a subpixel mapping method based on modified binary quantum particle swarm optimization (MBQPSO) to solve the above issues. The initial subpixel mapping imagery is obtained according to spectral unmixing results. We focus mainly on the discretization of QPSO, which is implemented by modifying the discrete update process of particle location, to minimize the objective function, which is formulated based on different connected regional perimeter calculating methods. To reduce time complexity, a target optimization strategy of global iteration combined with local iteration is performed. The MBQPSO is tested on standard test functions and results show that MBQPSO has the best performance on global optimization and convergent rate. Then, we analyze the proposed algorithm qualitatively and quantitatively by simulated and real experiment; results show that the method combined with MBQPSO and objective function, which is formulated based on the gap length between region and background, has the best performance in accuracy and efficiency.
