Atmospheric correction of geostationary Himawari-8 satellite data for Total Suspended Sediment mapping: A case study in the Coastal Waters of Western Australia
2018
Abstract Recent studies in the application of geostationary satellite sensors, such as the Spinning Enhanced Visible and InfraRed Imager (SEVIRI) onboard the European Union’s meteorological satellite, and the
Geostationary Ocean Color Imager(GOCI) from South Korea, to monitor the Total Suspended Sediment (TSS) in coastal waters have shown that the higher temporal dynamics in the coastal processes can be better achieved with high
temporal resolutiongeostationary satellite sensors. The availability of the geostationary satellite, Himawari-8 carrying the Advanced Himawari Imager (AHI) sensor with visible, Near InfraRed (NIR) and
ShortwaveInfraRed (SWIR) bands over the coastal waters of Australia has prompted this study to test the feasibility of AHI in mapping TSS concentration. In this study, we present an
atmospheric correctionmethod for AHI data using two different aerosol correction methods, a combination of two SWIR bands, and a combination of one NIR and one SWIR band. The outcome from this study indicated that the
atmospherically correctedAHI data at 10 min
temporal resolutioncan be used to discern TSS concentrations greater than ∼0.15 mg/L when
solar zenith angles( θ 0 ) are less than 60°. The result of the cross-validation of AHI derived TSS concentration, with MODIS-Aqua and Lansat-8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) derived TSS concentration showed good correlation, with correlation coefficients r = 0.71 and r = 0.91, respectively.
