文摘

With such significant advantages as all-day observation, penetrability and all-weather coverage, passive microwave remote sensing technique has been widely applied in the research of global environmental change. As the satellite-based passive microwave remote sensor, the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-Earth Observing System (AMSR-E) loaded on NASA’s (National Aeronautics and Space Administration of USA) Aqua satellite has been popularly used in the field of microwave observation. The Microwave Radiation Imager (MWRI) loaded on the Chinese FengYun-3A (FY-3A) satellite is an AMSR-E-like conical scanning microwave sensor, but there are few reports about MWRI data. This paper firstly proposed an optimal spatial position matching algorithm from rough to exact for the position matching between AMSR-E and MWRI data, then taking Northeast China as an example, comparatively analyzed the microwave brightness temperature data derived from AMSR-E and MWRI. The results show that when the antenna footprints of the two sensors are filled with either full water, or full land, or mixed land and water with approximate proportion, the errors of brightness temperature between AMSR-E and MWRI are usually in the range from ?0 K to +10 K. In general, the residual values of brightness temperature between the two microwave sensors with the same spatial resolution are in the range of ±3 K. Because the spatial resolution of AMSR-E is three times as high as that of MWRI, the results indicate that the quality of MWRI data is better. The research can provide useful information for the MWRI data application and microwave unmixing method in the future.
