Generation of 1.8-W Average Power From a Diode-Pumped Femtosecond Rotary Nd:Glass Disk Laser
摘要： Soil moisture ocean salinity (SMOS) mission has been providing L-band multiangular brightness temperature observations at a global scale since its launch in November 2009 and has performed well in the retrieval of soil moisture. The multiple incidence angle observations also allow for the retrieval of additional parameters beyond soil moisture, but these are not obtained at fixed values and the resolution and accuracy change with the grid locations over SMOS snapshot images. Radio-frequency interference (RFI) issues and aliasing at lower look angles increase the uncertainty of observations and thereby affect the soil moisture retrieval that utilizes observations at specific angles. In this study, we proposed a two-step regression approach that uses a mixed objective function based on SMOS L1c data products to refine characteristics of multiangular observations. The approach was found to be robust by validation using simulations from a radiative transfer model, and valuable in improving soil moisture estimates from SMOS. In addition, refined brightness temperatures were analyzed over three external targets: Antarctic ice sheet, Amazon rainforest, and Sahara desert, by comparing with WindSat observations. These results provide insights for selecting and utilizing external targets as part of the upcoming soil moisture active passive (SMAP) mission.

Forensic soil analysis using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and Fourier transform infrared total attenuated reflectance spectroscopy (FTIR-ATR): Principles and case studies
摘要： Soils are crucial trace evidence that can establish or exclude the relationship between a suspect, victim, or an object at a particular scene, which could contribute to building a case. Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and Fourier transform infrared-attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR) spectroscopy have been demonstrated to be effective techniques for soil characterization owing to its being rapid, non-destructive, and convenient analysis with little sample preparation requirements. Therefore, the principles of LIBS and FTIR-ATR techniques for soil forensic analysis in typical soil samples were investigated and their practical feasibility was tested by applying the techniques to forensic soil samples in two criminal cases. Principal component analysis (PCA) of a typical soil sample indicated that five typical soil types were clearly distinguished by LIBS and FTIR-ATR spectra. Variations in the soil elements (i.e., Si, Mg, Al, Ca, K, O, and N) and functional groups (i.e., O?H/N?H, C=C/C=O, Si?O, CO3 2?, Al?OH, and NH2) are crucial indicators for soil identification. The casework results demonstrated that both LIBS and FTIR-ATR show great potential for forensic soil analysis in future cases.

Virtual Sensing of Photovoltaic Module Operating Parameters
摘要： The phenomenon of soil salinization in semi-arid regions is getting amplified and accentuated by both anthropogenic practices and climate change. Land salinization mapping and monitoring using conventional strategies are insufficient and difficult. Our work aims to study the potential of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) for mapping and monitoring of the spatio-temporal dynamics of soil salinity using interferometry. Our contribution in this paper consists of a statistical relationship that we establish between field salinity measurement and InSAR coherence based on an empirical analysis. For experimental validation, two sites were selected: 1) the region of Mahdia (central Tunisia) and 2) the plain of Tadla (central Morocco). Both sites underwent three ground campaigns simultaneously with three Radarsat-2 SAR image acquisitions. The results show that it is possible to estimate the temporal change in soil electrical conductivity (EC) from SAR images through the InSAR technique. It has been shown that the radar signal is more sensitive to soil salinity in HH polarization using a small incidence angle. However, for the HV polarization, a large angle of incidence is more suitable. This is, under considering the minimal influence of roughness and moisture surfaces, for a given InSAR coherence.

摘要： This paper develops a new model for surface soil moisture (SSM) retrieval from CBERS-02B images. The paper first analyzes the existing SSM retrieval model from Landsat TM imagery and establishes the spectral radiance relationship of each band between Landsat TM and CBERS-02B. The model associated parameters including mean reflectance, mean atmospheric transmittance, and mean sun radial brightness of each band between Landsat TM and CBERS-02B is established. The model is finally adjusted by considering the differences of response frequency and sensitivity in the two satellite sensors. Two test areas, Jili Village of Laibin county, Guangxi Province, China and Yuanjiaduan Village of Jiujiang County, JiangXi Province, China are chosen to verify the correctness of the developed model. The SSMs retrieved from Landsat TM imagery are chosen as references. The accuracy of the proposed model is evaluated through correlation coefficient and root-mean-square error (RMSE) relative to the SSMs retrieved from Landsat TM images. The verified results discover that the relative accuracy of the average SSMs retrieved by the proposed model from CBERS-02B can reach over 91.0% when compared to the SSMs retrieved from Lansat TM. In addition, six types of lands are used to further evaluate the accuracy of the proposed model. The experimental results in two areas show that the correlation coefficient and the RMSE between two SSMs from CBERS-02B and Landsat TM achieves over 0.9 and 0.011 (m3/m3), respectively, in both rocky desertification land and dry land; achieve over 0.81 and 0.09 (m3/m3), respectively, in rice field, shrub land, and woodland. These results demonstrate that the model developed in this paper can effectively calculate the SSMs for CBERS-02B satellite imagery.

摘要： Soil moisture retrievals, delivered as a CATDS (Centre Aval de Traitement des Données SMOS) Level-3 product of the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission, form an important information source, particularly for updating land surface models. However, the coarse resolution of the SMOS product requires additional treatment if it is to be used in applications at higher resolutions. Furthermore, the remotely sensed soil moisture often does not reflect the climatology of the soil moisture predictions, and the bias between model predictions and observations needs to be removed. In this paper, a statistical framework is presented that allows for the downscaling of the coarse-scale SMOS soil moisture product to a finer resolution. This framework describes the interscale relationship between SMOS observations and model-predicted soil moisture values, in this case, using the variable infiltration capacity (VIC) model, using a copula. Through conditioning, the copula to a SMOS observation, a probability distribution function is obtained that reflects the expected distribution function of VIC soil moisture for the given SMOS observation. This distribution function is then used in a cumulative distribution function matching procedure to obtain an unbiased fine-scale soil moisture map that can be assimilated into VIC. The methodology is applied to SMOS observations over the Upper Mississippi River basin. Although the focus in this paper is on data assimilation applications, the framework developed could also be used for other purposes where downscaling of coarse-scale observations is required.

Gas chromatography vs. quantum cascade laser-based??N <sub/>2</sub> O flux measurements using a novel chamber design
摘要： Recent advances in laser spectrometry offer new opportunities to investigate the soil–atmosphere exchange of nitrous oxide. During two field campaigns conducted at a grassland site and a willow field, we tested the performance of a quantum cascade laser (QCL) connected to a newly developed automated chamber system against a conventional gas chromatography (GC) approach using the same chambers plus an automated gas sampling unit with septum capped vials and subsequent laboratory GC analysis. Through its high precision and time resolution, data of the QCL system were used for quantifying the commonly observed nonlinearity in concentration changes during chamber deployment, making the calculation of exchange fluxes more accurate by the application of exponential models. As expected, the curvature values in the concentration increase was higher during long (60 min) chamber closure times and under high-flux conditions (FN2O > 150 μg N m?2 h?1) than those values that were found when chambers were closed for only 10 min and/or when fluxes were in a typical range of 2 to 50 μg N m?2 h?1. Extremely low standard errors of fluxes, i.e., from ～ 0.2 to 1.7 % of the flux value, were observed regardless of linear or exponential flux calculation when using QCL data. Thus, we recommend reducing chamber closure times to a maximum of 10 min when a fast-response analyzer is available and this type of chamber system is used to keep soil disturbance low and conditions around the chamber plot as natural as possible. Further, applying linear regression to a 3 min data window with rejecting the first 2 min after closure and a sampling time of every 5 s proved to be sufficient for robust flux determination while ensuring that standard errors of N2O fluxes were still on a relatively low level. Despite low signal-to-noise ratios, GC was still found to be a useful method to determine the mean the soil–atmosphere exchange of N2O on longer timescales during specific campaigns. Intriguingly, the consistency between GC and QCL-based campaign averages was better under low than under high N2O efflux conditions, although single flux values were highly scattered during the low efflux campaign. Furthermore, the QCL technology provides a useful tool to accurately investigate the highly debated topic of diurnal courses of N2O fluxes and its controlling factors. Our new chamber design protects the measurement spot from unintended shading and minimizes disturbance of throughfall, thereby complying with high quality requirements of long-term observation studies and research infrastructures.

Evaluation of Terrestrial Laser Scanner and Structure from Motion photogrammetry techniques for quantifying soil surface roughness parameters over agricultural soils
摘要： The surface roughness of agricultural soils is mainly related to the type of tillage performed, typically consisting of oriented and random components. Traditionally, soil surface roughness (SSR) characterization has been difficult due to its high spatial variability and the sensitivity of roughness parameters to the characteristics of the instruments, including its measurement scale. Recent advances in surveying have greatly improved the spatial resolution, extent, and availability of surface elevation datasets. However, it is still unknown how new roughness measurements relates with the conventional roughness measurements such as 2D profiles acquired by laser profilometers. The objective of this study was to evaluate the suitability of Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS) and Structure from Motion (SfM) photogrammetry techniques for quantifying SSR over different agricultural soils. With this aim, an experiment was carried out in three plots (5 × 5 m) representing different roughness conditions, where TLS and SfM photogrammetry measurements were co-registered with 2D profiles obtained using a laser profilometer. Differences between new and conventional roughness measurement techniques were evaluated visually and quantitatively using regression analysis and comparing the values of six different roughness parameters. TLS and SfM photogrammetry measurements were further compared by evaluating multi-directional roughness parameters and analyzing corresponding Digital Elevation Models. The results obtained demonstrate the ability of both TLS and SfM photogrammetry techniques to measure 3D SSR over agricultural soils. However, profiles obtained with both techniques (especially SfM photogrammetry) showed a loss of high-frequency elevation information that affected the values of some parameters (e.g. initial slope of the autocorrelation function, peak frequency and tortuosity). Nevertheless, both TLS and SfM photogrammetry provide a massive amount of 3D information that enables a detailed analysis of surface roughness, which is relevant for multiple applications, such as those focused in hydrological and soil erosion processes and microwave scattering.

Red-emissive nitrogen doped carbon quantum dots for highly selective and sensitive fluorescence detection of the alachlor herbicide in soil samples
摘要： Red-emissive nitrogen doped carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs) were synthesized by a facile and efficient microwave-assisted hydrothermal treatment of p-phenylenediamine (p-PD), and then applied for the highly selective and sensitive fluorescence detection of the alachlor herbicide in soil samples. The synthesized N-CQDs exhibited strong red emission with a 27.6% quantum yield (QY) and high stability. Under the optimized experimental conditions, the as-prepared red-emissive N-CQDs were employed as a fluorescent probe to successfully detect trace alachlor, and their fluorescence presented a good linear decline with the increase of the alachlor concentration from 0.005 to 150 mM with a limit of detection of 0.2 nM. The N-CQDs as a fluorescent probe were used for the detection of alachlor in soil samples with satisfactory recoveries ranging from 86.6–114.3%, indicating that they were a promising fluorescent probe for highly selective and sensitive determination of alachlor.
