Wetland Monitoring and Land Surface Temperature Response in Panjin City Based on Tiangong-2 Data

Abstract

In the research area Panjin city, visible and near-infrared remote sensing images by Tiangong-2 wide-band imaging spectrometer was used to extracte wetland. According to the established remote sensing interpretation signs, the wetland types of Panjin city in 2018 are extracted by using the method of partition classification. The thermal infrared imaging spectrometer of Tiangong-2 was used to invert the land surface temperature based on the split-window algorithm. This paper comprehensively analyzed the distribution of wetland cover types of Panjin city in 2018 and their impact on land surface temperature. The results show that in 2018, Panjin wetland covers an area of 3,184.89 km2 and the major type of wetland is artificial wetland. The area is reduced successively according to paddy field, reed swamp, mudflat wetland, suaeda salsa swamp, aquaculture farm, reservoir/pond and river wetland. The overall accuracy of partition classification method is 89.97%, kappa coefficient is 0.8761. The applicability of Tiangong-2 wide-band imaging spectrometer in wetland monitoring is verified. The split-window algorithm can be used to effectively invert the land surface temperature of Tiangong-2 data, and the land surface temperature results obtained by inversion are in good consistency with those obtained by MODIS inversion, the correlation coefficient reached 0.79. Through counting, the land surface temperature of different wetland types is different, among which the land surface temperature of mudflat wetland is the highest and that of reservoir is the lowest.

The Gavkhouni Wetland Dryness and Its Impact on Air Temperature Variability in the Eastern Part of the Zayandeh-Rud River Basin, Iran

“…Wetlands, as aquatic ecosystems, provide a variety of benefits to wildlife and humans in many different ways [1,2]. Some of the services provided by wetlands include reducing greenhouse gasses, regulating climate [3], purifying water, storing pollutants in their soils, and vegetation maintaining water supply [4], providing breeding habitat for various species of fauna, and flora, and biodiversity function [5]. Wetlands are one of the vital micro-components of climate as they have their own specific moisture cycles with aquatic plants [6].…”

“…In recent decades, wetlands have been heavily impacted by anthropogenic activities and climate change [5], lack of an integrated management program for wetlands and the rivers that feed them, droughts, and other factors cause them to dry up.…”
