Resümee

The Fraction of absorbed Photosynthetically Active Radiation (FPAR) is one of the key parameters in the light use efficiency model of the carbon cycle. High-spatiotemporal-resolution data have been provided for the inversion of quantitative remote sensing products since the launch of GF satellites. The FPAR products derived from GF satellite data provide precise and accurate input parameters for the analysis and evaluation of the ecosystem’s carbon cycle. In this study, a deep learning algorithm was developed to retrieve FPAR over China based on the simulated data of the radiative transfer model. The inputs are surface reflectance, cloud detection, and land cover products of GF-1 satellite data, whereas the output is FPAR. The FPAR product has a spatial resolution of 16 m and a temporal resolution of 10 days. This method uses the SAIL model to simulate output canopy FPAR and reflectance under various input variables, such as solar and observing angles and atmospheric conditions. The FPAR inversion model of GF-1 satellite data was obtained using a deep belief network. The long-term crop and grassland FPAR observation data in Huailai and Heihe were used to compare and validate the FPAR products, with a root mean square error of 0.15 and 0.17, respectively. The inversed FPAR is in good agreement with the measured FPAR in the low values, but lower than the measured FPAR in the high values. The radiative transfer model, the representativeness of the simulated data, and the preprocessing (calibration and geometric and atmospheric correction) of the GF-1 satellite data inevitably introduce some biases in the inversion process. This method uses the multidimensional atmospheric and surface variables as the input and the simulated vegetation canopy by the radiative transfer model parameters as the output. The simulated dataset, used as the training samples for deep learning, makes up for the errors in the deep learning training process caused by the insufficient number of training samples and incomplete observation data. The input of the inversion is only the surface reflectance product with the information of the sun angle and the observation angle. It lessens the difficulty of obtaining input parameters, reduces the influence of the error transmission of the input parameters, and is conducive to the realization of the commercial production of the product. The high FPAR is mainly distributed in the northeast, north, central, east, southwest, and south parts of China. The interannual variation of the FPAR time series, combined with the vegetation growing cycle and phenology, is high in spring and summer and low in autumn and winter.
