| Zusammenfassung |
| In this study, a parameterization method based on MODIS (Moderate Resolution
Imaging Spectroradiometer) data, AVHRR (Advanced Very High-Resolution
Radiometer) data and in situ data is introduced and tested for estimating the
regional evaporative fraction Λ over a heterogeneous landscape. As
a case study, the algorithm was applied to the Tibetan Plateau (TP) area.
Eight MODIS data images (17 January, 14 April, 23 July and 16 October in
2003; 30 January, 15 April, 1 August and 25 October in 2007) and four AVHRR
data images (17 January, 14 April, 23 July and 16 October in 2003) were used
in this study to compare winter, spring, summer and autumn values and for
annual variation analysis. The results were validated using the "ground
truth" measured at Tibetan Observation and Research Platform (TORP) and the
CAMP/Tibet (CEOP (Coordinated Enhanced Observing Period) Asia-Australia
Monsoon Project (CAMP) on the Tibetan Plateau) meteorological stations. The
results show that the estimated evaporative fraction Λ in the four
different seasons over the TP is in clear accordance with the land surface
status. The Λ fractions show a wide range due to the strongly
contrasting surface features found on the TP. Also, the estimated Λ
values are in good agreement with "ground truth" measurements, and their
absolute percentage difference (APD) is less than 10.0% at the validation
sites. The AVHRR data were also in agreement with the MODIS data, with the
latter usually displaying a higher level of accuracy. It was therefore
concluded that the proposed algorithm was successful in retrieving the
evaporative fraction Λ using MODIS, AVHRR and in situ data over the TP.
MODIS data are the most accurate and should be used widely in
evapotranspiration (ET) research in this region. |
