摘要: Accurate snow water equivalent (SWE) products are vital for monitoring hydrological processes and managing water resources effectively. However, the coarse spatial resolution (typically at 25 km from passive microwave remote sensing images) of the existing SWE products cannot meet the needs of explicit hydrological modeling. Linear regression ignores the spatial autocorrelation (SA) in the variables, and the measure of SA in the data assimilation algorithm is not explicit. This study develops a Resolution-enhanced Multifactor Eigenvector Spatial Filtering (RM-ESF) method to estimate daily SWE in the western United States based on a 6.25 km enhanced-resolution passive microwave record. The RM-ESF method is based on a brightness temperature gradience algorithm, incorporating not only factors including geolocation, environmental, topographical, and snow features but also eigenvectors generated from a spatial weights matrix to take SA into account. The results indicate that the SWE estimation from the RM-ESF method obviously outperforms other SWE products given its overall highest correlation coefficient (0.72) and lowest RMSE (56.70 mm) and MAE (43.88 mm), compared with the AMSR2 (0.33, 131.38 mm, and 115.45 mm), GlobSnow3 (0.50, 100.03 mm, and 83.58 mm), NCA-LDAS (0.48, 98.80 mm, and 81.94 mm), and ERA5 (0.65, 67.33 mm, and 51.82 mm), respectively. The RM-ESF model considers SA effectively and estimates SWE at a resolution of 6.25 km, which provides a feasible and efficient approach for SWE estimation with higher precision and finer spatial resolution.
