英文摘要: Land surface temperature (LST) plays a critical role in characterizing energy exchanges of the Earth's surface and atmosphere. Recent advances in thermal infrared (TIR) remote sensing technology enable the emergence of airborne very-high-resolution (VHR) TIR sensors to identify detailed LST distribution for environmental, geological and urban applications. However, the usage of airborne VHR TIR data may be limited by its high cost, longacquisition period, extensive data processing, etc. A cost-effective alternative could beVHR LST estimation. We proposed a physically based method, referred to as the VHR spectral unmixing and thermal mixing (VHR-SUTM) approach, to estimate LST at the meter level. Particularly, considering both spectral and thermal properties, spectral unmixing was employed to estimate fractional urban compositions for a comprehensive representation of heterogeneous urban surfaces. Further, VHR LST was modeled as a summation of the thermal features of representative urban compositions weighted by their respective abundances. Resultssuggest a high agreement between the resampled VHR LST estimates and the retrieved LSTs. With relatively high estimation accuracy (RMSE of 2.02 K and MAE of 1.51 K), the VHR-SUTMtechnique could serve as a promising and practical method for various applications in urban and environment studies. © 2012 Published by Elsevier B.V.
