However, research on monitoring fog using FY-1D is very few. In this paper, based on the typical FY-1D data, a fog's spectral characteristics in the different channels are analyzed using the histogram analysis method, and a method of monitoring fog using FY-1D is suggested. The results indicate that the 1st and 4th channels are the representative channels of FY-1D for the identification of fog. In the 1st channel, the fog is with uniform veins, smooth top, and clear-cut boundary, and its albedo is 20%-48%. In the 4th channel, the fog's brightness and temperature is 272-289K, and the difference value between the fog's and the ground surface's is not more than 6K.展开更多
