IGARSS 2011 at Vancouver Modeling Daily Net Shortwave Radiation Over Rugged Surfaces Using MODIS Atmospheric Products 28 July 2011 Zhang Hailong, Xin Xiaozhou, Liu Qinhuo State Key Laboratory of Remote Sensing Science Institute of Remote Sensing Applications Chinese Academy of Sciences IGARSS 2011
Outline • Background • Data and methodology • Results and discussion • Conclusion IGARSS 2011
Background • NSSR (Net Surface Shortwave Radiation ) controls the total energy exchange between the atmosphere and the land surface. • NSSR is not measured in most regular meteorological sites. • NSSR products (ISCCP/GEWEX/CERES) have fine temporal resolution but coarse spatial resolutions.

Horizontal surface rugged surface Results and discussion • Model validation IGARSS 2011
Results and discussion • Error analysis • spatial resolution gaps between the observed and retrieved data. • coarse spatio-temporal resolution of the MODIS atmospheric products • Errors from the data sources: The maximum uncertainty of the MODIS cloud-detection algorithm is 200% (Houborg, 2007) IGARSS 2011
Conclusion • Terrain is a main factor of NSSR attenuation under clear sky • Cloud plays a greater role than terrain under cloudy sky • moderately maps of NSSR on rugged surface can be produced using MODIS data • The geostationary satellites holds great promise for accurate estimation of NSSR IGARSS 2011
