文摘针对两个特征波段组成的植被指数存在的饱和以及植物类型依赖问题,利用便携式地物光谱仪(analytical spectral devices,ASD)和哨兵2号多光谱卫星(Sentinel 2,S2)数据,使用改进的距离投影比值指数(improved distance projection ratio index,DPRI2)建立新叶片等效水厚度(leaf equivalent water thickness,LEWT)反演模型,进而反演冠层等效水厚度(canopy equivalent water thickness,CEWT)。研究表明:①R语言随机森林(random forest,RF)算法可减少特征波段选取过程中人为因素;②DPRI2结构简单,能充分反映特征波段之间角度、距离、投影三者组合关系,有利于提高LEWT、CEWT反演精度;③DPRI2不受植被类型限制,适用于具有多种植被类型的研究区CEWT反演。通过遥感手段监测CEWT,有利于探究植被在区域水文循环中的调控机制,以及科学评估区域水资源储量。
