摘要:

地表水和海洋地形(SWOT)测高卫星具有宽刈幅测量模式,有望克服传统测高卫星(星下点模式)观测海面高的局限性,进一步提升海洋重力异常解算的精度和空间分辨率。本文基于中山大学、阳明交通大学、日本海洋研究开发机构(JAMSTEC)及美国国家环境信息中心(NCEI)提供的船载重力测量数据,系统评估了SWOT_02、DTU21、V32.1、NSOAS24及SDUST22全球重力异常模型在中国近海等区域的精度与功率谱特征。重点分析了SWOT卫星观测数据融合V32.1模型解算出SWOT_02海洋重力异常模型的性能。结果表明,在开阔海域,SWOT_02模型的表现优于其他模型。一方面,SWOT_02模型与JAMSTEC船载重力异常偏差的均方根误差(RMS)小于4 mGal,相比V32.1模型提升了约1.3 mGal,相对精度提升约25%;另一方面,与船载重力异常的空间插值结果在各波段的相干性均达到最佳,并在7 km以下短波段的功率谱密度优于DTU21、V32.1和NSOAS24模型。此外,SWOT_02模型与“中山大学”号和“中山大学极地”号船载重力在7~60 km波长范围内的相干性,与海底地形格网在小于20 km波长范围的相干性,均显著优于其他模型。然而,在近岸沿海及浅海部分海域,SWOT_02模型精度仍不及DTU21、SDUST22等模型,可能是SWOT_02模型迄今所用观测数据质量限制、基础版本V32.1模型精度较低以及在近海海域数据处理方法未做较大改进等原因导致。因此,沿岸环境复杂性使SWOT卫星数据处理仍面临挑战,提升沿海区域海洋重力异常模型精度是未来重要的研究方向。

Abstract:

The SWOT satellite, operating in a wide-swath interferometric altimeter mode, is expected to overcome the limitations of traditional nadir altimetry satellites for sea surface height observations, thereby improving the precision and spatial resolution of marine gravity anomaly measurements. In this study, shipborne gravity data provided by Sun Yat-sen University, National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC), and National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) were utilized to systematically evaluate the accuracy and power spectral characteristics of the SWOT_02, DTU21, V32.1, NSOAS24, and SDUST22 global gravity anomaly models over the Chinese coastal and offshore areas. Particular attention was given to assessing the performance of the SWOT_02 model, which incorporates data from the SWOT satellite, as an enhancement of the V32.1 model. Results indicate that, over the open ocean areas, the SWOT_02 model performs optimally. Specifically, the root mean square (RMS) of the differences between the SWOT_02 model and JAMSTEC shipborne gravity anomalies is less than 4 mGal, reflecting an improvement of approximately 1.3 mGal compared to the V32.1 model, with a corresponding relative accuracy enhancement of ~25%. Furthermore, the SWOT_02 model demonstrates the highest coherence with shipborne gravity anomalies across different wavelength bands, with its power spectral density in the wavelength range below 7 km outperforming those of the DTU21, V32.1, and NSOAS24 models. Additionally, in both the Chinese coastal seas and the deep-water regions of the South China Sea, comparison of spectral characteristics along shipborne survey tracks indicates that the SWOT_02 model exhibits significantly higher coherence with shipborne gravity anomalies provided by Sun Yat-sen University within the 7~60 km wavelength range compared to other models. Compared to other models, SWOT_02 demonstrates significantly improved coherence with seafloor topography at wavelengths shorter than 20 km. However, in some nearshore and shallow sea regions, the accuracy of the SWOT_02 model remains inferior to that of models such as DTU21 and SDUST22. This may be due to the limited quality of currently available SWOT observations, the relatively low accuracy of the base V32.1 model, and the lack of significant improvements in data processing methods for coastal areas. The complex nearshore environment poses substantial challenges for processing SWOT data, highlighting the need for further research to improve the accuracy of marine gravity anomaly models in coastal areas.
