[Investigation of the hyperspectral image characteristics of wheat leaves under different stress].

The diagnosis of growing status and vigor of crops under various stresses is an important step in precision agriculture. Hyperspectral imaging technology has the advantage of providing both spectral and spatial information simultaneously, and has become a research hot spot. In the present study, auto-development of the pushbroom imaging spectrometer (PIS) was utilized to collect hyperspectral images of wheat leaves which suffer from shortage of nutrient, pest and disease stress.

[The analysis of consistency between HJ-1B and Landsat 5 TM for retrieving LST based on the single-channel algorithm].

To ascertain whether the thermal infrared image of HJ-1B which has the similar sensor parameter and setting to Landsat 5 TM6 image is applicable for retrieving the land surface temperature (LST), a comparison of retrieved LST between two types of sensors was conducted. Two scenes of thermal infrared images that came from different sensors were acquired in 5th, Apr 2009, which covered the same region in Beijing. To retrieve LST, a generalized single-channel algorithm developed by Jiménez-Muñoz and Sobrino was applied.

[Monitoring of winter wheat stripe rust based on the spectral knowledge base for TM images].

In most cases, the reversion model for monitoring the severity degree of stripe rust based on the hyperspectral information can not be directly applied by the satellite images with relatively broad bandwidth, while the airborne hyperspectral images can not be applied for large-scale monitoring either, due to the scale limitation of its data and high cost. For resolving this dilemma, we developed a monitoring method based on PHI images, which relies on the construction of spectral knowledge base of winter wheat stripe rust. Three PHI images corresponding to the winter wheat experimental field that included different severity degree of stripe rust were used as a medium to establish the spectral knowledge base of relationships between disease index (DI) and the simulated reflectance of TM bands by using the empirical reversion model of DI(%) and the relative spectral response (RSR) function of TM-5 sensor.

[Monitoring stripe rust of winter wheat using PHI based on sensitive bands].

Forty six points representing different severity degree of stripe rust were established in winter wheat field. The canopy reflectance was collected by an ASD hand-held spectrometer at each point. Meanwhile, the diseases index was investigated.
