Sea and lake surface temperature retrieval from Landsat thermal data in Northern Germany

摘要: Landsat thermal data are employed to derive lake and sea surface temperatures. The limitations of this approach obvious, since the calculation temperatures based solely on image requires at least two bands compensate atmospheric influence which is mainly caused by water vapour absorption. However, 1 km spatial resolution currently available multi‐band satellite sensors (NOAA‐AVHRR, MODIS) often not appropriate for coastal zone applications. Therefore, it worthwhile investigating accuracy can be obtained with single‐band using radiosonde information column from meteorological stations in study area. In addition, standard atmospheres MODTRAN code were considered that seasonal climatologic values vapour, e.g. mid‐latitude summer, winter, etc. area investigation comprises various lakes zones Baltic Sea NE...
