Abstract:

Based on the Sentinel-1 and Landsat 8 image data on May 17, 2020, and in combination with the field manual moisture measurement data, taking Chaoyang of Liaoning province as an example, the soil moisture was retrieved using the vegetation temperature index method and the optical collaborative microwave remote sensing inversion algorithm, respectively, and a high-precision soil moisture forecasting model was built.The results showed that the Vegetation Temperature Index (TVDI) based on optical remote sensing cannot well retrieve farmland soil moisture.Microwave reflection could be better feedback on the spatial variation of soil moisture, and the fitting accuracy of VV polarization of Sentinel-1 radar data for soil moisture (R2=0.71) is better than VH polarization (R2=0.27).The improved water cloud model (WCM) based on Global Vegetation Moisture Index (GVMI) has the best performance (R2=0.80).Using collaborative inversion of microwave and optical remote sensing can retrieve high-spatial-resolution and high-precision farmland soil moisture data, which is helpful for agricultural drought monitoring.
