Resümee

Land surface reflection depends on land surface albedo and interferes with the retrieval of cloud geometrical thickness from OCO-2 oxygen A-band observations due to its second-strongest reflection after the cloud. However, no product can provide the land surface albedo of the OCO-2 oxygen A-band required for the retrieval. Therefore, the accurate estimation of land surface albedo is necessary and beneficial to the retrieval quality.In this study, we proposed a method for estimating land surface albedo in the oxygen A-band from multichannel black/white albedos from MODIS/MCD43C3 products. Although the estimation (MODIS→OCO-2) is related to land cover type, the comparison based on Shannon entropy proved that the multichannel albedo data contains the type information and is sufficient to achieve the same accuracy as land cover-type estimation. In addition, we implement the estimation model by BP neural network, and the accuracy is consistent with that of the analysis based on the Shannon entropy.We verified the multichannel-based estimation model by tests in different times and spaces. Its correlation coefficients were all over 0.93, and the root-mean-squared errors were 0.026. In addition, the multichannel-based model was always superior to the single-channel linear model on all land cover types, whether applied to the best-performing type of barren or sparsely vegetated land or the worse-performing type of snow and ice. The quality of MODIS albedo data is the most important for the accuracy of estimation. The root-mean-squared error with the best inputs was slightly better than 0.02 and increased to more than 0.05 as the quality of the inputs decreased.The method of estimating the land surface albedo in the OCO-2 oxygen A-band from MODIS multichannel black/white albedo data is feasible and can resist the disturbance caused by unknown land cover type. The estimation accuracy depends on the quality of the input MODIS albedo data.
