- 适合需要实时全球碳监测的气候政策制定与卫星数据分析团队。
基于卫星观测反射太阳光谱的温室气体(GHG)参数反演是理解陆地系统及其对碳循环影响的关键,具有近全球覆盖优势。该过程作为非线性贝叶斯逆问题,当前依赖计算昂贵的最优估计(OE)算法,仅提供非高斯后验的高斯近似,导致收敛困难和过于自信的不确定性估计。未来卫星任务将带来数个数量级的数据增长。开发快速、准确且具备稳健不确定性量化能力的反演算法至关重要,有助于推动实现近实时全球碳源汇连续监测,支撑气候政策制定。为此,本文提出一种基于扩散模型的方法,用于美国国家航空航天局轨道碳观测器-2(OCO-2)光谱仪数据,既能灵活重构高斯或非高斯后验,又相较现有最先进的运行算法实现显著提速。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Satellite-based estimates of greenhouse gas (GHG) properties from observations of reflected solar spectra are integral for understanding and monitoring complex terrestrial systems and their impact on the carbon cycle due to their near global coverage. Known as retrieval, making GHG concentration estimations from these observations is a non-linear Bayesian inverse problem, which is operationally solved using a computationally expensive algorithm called Optimal Estimation (OE), providing a Gaussian approximation to a non-Gaussian posterior. This leads to issues in solver algorithm convergence, and to unrealistically confident uncertainty estimates for the retrieved quantities. Upcoming satellite missions will provide orders of magnitude more data than the current constellation of GHG observers. Development of fast and accurate retrieval algorithms with robust uncertainty quantification is critical. Doing so stands to provide substantial climate impact of moving towards the goal of near continuous real-time global monitoring of carbon sources and sinks which is essential for policy making. To achieve this goal, we propose a diffusion-based approach to flexibly retrieve a Gaussian or non-Gaussian posterior, for NASA's Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 spectrometer, while providing a substantial computational speed-up over the current operational state-of-the-art.
