[Monitoring the thermal plume from coastal nuclear power plant using satellite remote sensing data: modeling, and validation].

Thermal plume from coastal nuclear power plant is a small-scale human activity, mornitoring of which requires high-frequency and high-spatial remote sensing data. The infrared scanner (IRS), on board of HJ-1B, has an infrared channel IRS4 with 300 m and 4-days as its spatial and temporal resolution. Remote sensing data aquired using IRS4 is an available source for mornitoring thermal plume.

Research on fast Fourier transforms algorithm of huge remote sensing image technology with GPU and partitioning technology.

Fast Fourier transforms (FFT) is a basic approach to remote sensing image processing. With the improvement of capacity of remote sensing image capture with the features of hyperspectrum, high spatial resolution and high temporal resolution, how to use FFT technology to efficiently process huge remote sensing image becomes the critical step and research hot spot of current image processing technology. FFT algorithm, one of the basic algorithms of image processing, can be used for stripe noise removal, image compression, image registration, etc.

[Research on calibration methods of ground-based thermal-infrared radiometer CE312].

The accuracy of the calibration coefficients of the ground-based thermal-infrared radiometer CE312 is one of the most important factors affecting the calibration of the thermal-infrared remote sensors. The theory of two calibration methods which calculate the bandpass radiance and spectral radiance respectively is introduced. The calibration of the CE312-1b is conducted with the blackbody in the laboratory, the accuracy and influence factors of the results are conducted by the MODIS data combined with in situ measurements data at Qinghai Lake in Aug 2010.

[Error analysis of the land surface temperature retrieval using HJ-1B thermal infrared remote sensing data].

Error analysis is playing an important role in the application of the remote sensing data and model. A theoretical analysis of error sensitivities in land surface temperature (LST) retrieval using radiance transfer model (RT) is introduced, which was applied to a new thermal infrared remote sensing data of HJ-1B satellite(IRS4). The modification of the RT model with MODTRAN 4 for IRS4 data is mentioned.

[HJ1A/HSI radiometric calibration and spectrum response function sensitivity analysis].

Hyper spectrum imager (HSI) loaded on HJ-1A satellite is Chinese first spaceborne hyperspectrum sensor. Since the HSI has no spectrum response function of all channels, the usually used calibration method-reflectance based method has been modified, and a new calibration method is proposed, in which the spectrum response function is neglected. Based on the calibration experiment data of Dunhuang in Aug.
