This study aims to evaluate applicability of AVHRR NDVI for drought prediction. Drought, one of the typical natural disasters, has damaged almost every year in different places and at time varied. An AVHRR satellite image can be a comprehensive tool to measure the drought because it is easy to obtain the vegetation status over the nationwide. This study explored a possibility of NOAA AVHRR NDVI applicability to drought because NDVI can provide plant vitality. Using May AVHRR imageries in 1998, 1999, and 2000, NDVIs are derived and compared with the rainfall amount to pursue the relationship between NDVI and drought. From the result, AVHRR NDVI showed a possible applicability in using drought prediction.

The elimination process of cloud-contaminated pixels is one of important steps before obtaining the accurate parameters of land and ocean surface from AVHRR imagery. We developed a 6step threshold method to detect the cloud-contaminated pixels from NOAA-14/AVHRR datime imagery over land using different combination of channels. This algorithm has two phases : the first is to make a cloud-free characteristic data of land surface using compositing techniques from channel 1 and 5 imagery and a dynamic threshold of brightness temperature, and the second is to identify the each pixel as a cloud-free or cloudy one through 4-step threshold tests. The merits of this method are its simplicity in input data and automation in determining threshold values. The threshold of infrared data is calculated through the combination of brightness temperature of land surface obtained from AVHRR imagery, spatial variance of them and temporal variance of observed land surface temperature. The method detected the could-comtaminated pixels successfully embedded inthe NOAA-14/AVHRR daytime imagery for the August 1 to November 30, 1996 and March 1 to July 30, 1997. This method was evaluated through the comparison with ground-based cloud observations and with the enhanced visible and infrared imagery.

This study proposes a particular approach to assess information about NDVI(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and LAI(Leaf Area Index) from the spectroradiometer and NOAA/AVHRR satellite data. AVHRR data were collected in twelves months over a one year period in 2004. We calculated 10-day composite NDVI using daily composite AVHRR surface reflectance products(1km spatial resolution). The 10-day composite NDVI have a great effect on the plant growth conditions. Considerably, NDVI was increased by developing muscle fiber tissue from April to May. Then the NDVI increased until the August and then decreased until February. The highest month was at August and the lower month was at December. The difference NDVI analysis using December and another months data was conducted, the results were provided information on the variation of vegetation coverage. The result suggest that a relationship established between the LAI and NDVI in 2004.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the climatic water balance of the Korean peninsula using meteorological data and the evapotranspiration (ET) derived from NOAA/AVHRR, Quantifying water balance components is important to understand the basic hydrology, In this study, a simple method to estimate actual ET was proposed based on a regression approach between NDVI and Morton's actual ET using NOAA/AVHRR data, The Mortons actual ET for land surface conditions was evaluated using a daily meteorological data from 77 weather stations, and the monthly averaged Morton's ETs for each land cover was compared with the monthly NDVIs during the year 2001. According to the climatic water balance analysis, water deficit and surplus distributed maps were created from spatial rainfall, soil moisture, and actual and potential ETs map, The results clearly showed that the temporal and spatial characteristics of dryness and wetness may be detected and mapped based on the wetness index.

AVHRR(Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer) on NOAA satellite provides data in five spectral, one in visible range, one in near infrared and three in thermal range. In this paper, application of NOAA/AVHRR data is studied for environment monitoring such as cloud top temperature, surface temperature, albedo, sea surface temperature, vegetation index, forest fire, flood, snow cover and so on. The analyses for cloud top temperature, surface temperature, albedo, sea surface temperature, vegetation index and forest fire showed reasonable agreement. But monitoring for flood and snow cover was uneasy due to the limitations such as cloud contamination, low spatial resolution. So this research had only simple purpose to identify well-defined waterbody for dynamic monitoring of flood. Based on development of these basic algorithms, we have a plan to further reseach for environment monitoring using AVHRR data.

NOAA 위성의 narrow-band AVHRR(Advanced Very. High Resolution Radiometer) 적 외선 채널과 broad-band 0.2 - 50$\mu\textrm{m}$ 영역의 ERBE(Earth Radiation Budget Experiment) scanning instrument에 의하여 관측된 radiance로부터 추정된 지구의 대기 외장파복사량 (Outgoing Longwave Radiation:OLR) 이 비교조사되었다. 이를 위하여 1985년 4월, 7월, 10월과 1986년 1월에 위성에서 관측된 radiance를 각각 이용하였고 비교된 OLR은 위도와 경도가 각각 2.5$^{\circ}$ 간격으로 구분된 grid내에서 일치(collocate)시켜 지역별(zonal), 그리고 전지구(global)규모 로 비교되었다. ERBE와 AVHRR에 의하여 각각 추정된 OLR값의 차(ERBE minus AVHRR)에 의한 분석 결과는 주간의 경우 -1~2 W/m$^2$의 값과 야간의 경우 4~7 W/m$^2$의 값으로 비교적 좋은 일치를 보였지만 이들의 RMS는 하절(6월)에 12 W/m$^2$와 동절(12월)에 5 W/m$^2$의 값으로 다소 높은 차이를 보였다. 한편, 이들 OLR값을 관측지역에 따라 큰 차 이를 나타내어 사막지역과 아열대고기압(subtropical ocean)대에서는 상반된 결과를 보였다. 이들 지역에 대한 차이는 지역적 기온구조와 지표온도의 영향을 다 고려하지 못하고 OLR 측정치를 도 출하는 대기복사모델(radiation model)의 regional systematic bias에서 기인된 것으로 해석된다. 즉 사막의 지표역전층에 대한 AVHRR과 해면의 대기구조에 대한 ERBE의 OLR은 상반된 영향을 보였다.

The objective of this research was to find an indirect method to estimate spectral reflectance and NDVI(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) efficiently, using the spectroradiometer and NOAA AVHRR satellite data. For collecting RS base data, used spectro-radiometer that measures reflection characteristics between 300~1,100nm was used and measured the reflection of vegetation from paddy rice during the growing season at Chungbuk national university's farm in 2002. The feasibility of detecting the temporal variation in the spectral reflectance and NDVI in paddy rice were conducted on eight growth stages. AVHRR data were collected in eight different months over a one year period in 2002. The results were compared with those obtained by analyzing NDVI characteristics. The spectral reflectance and NDVI of paddy rice have a great effect on the growth condition. Considerably, NDVI was increased by developing muscle fiber tissue at the near infrared wavelength until the Booting stage. Then the NDVI increased until the Maturity stage and then decreased until harvest. The highest month was at July and the lower month was at March. The difference NDVI analysis using March and another months data was conducted, the results were provided information on the growth condition of crops.

최근 국내에서 저해상도 위성영상을 이용한 적설 분포의 추출연구가 융설과 관련된 수문학적 연구에 이용되기 시작하였다. 한반도와 같이 넓은 지역을 대상으로 추출하는 과정에서 대기에 의한 방해가 너무 큰 영상은 구름 아래 지표면의 정보를 얻을 방법이 없어 해당 날짜의 영상을 제외 할 수밖에 없는 문제가 생긴다. 본 연구에서는 센서의 특성과 영상의 촬영 시간, 그리고 촬영 각도가 달라 서로 다른 대기의 영향을 받는 Terra MODIS 위성영상과 NOAA AVHRR 위성영상을 이용하여 각각의 적설 분포를 추출하는 방법을 비교 연구함으로써 영상을 분석하는데 있어 구름의 영향을 최소화 하고자 하였다. 2004년부터 2006년까지 겨울철의 적설이 발생한 기간을 대상으로 총 3개년의 영상을 분석한 결과를 바탕으로 두 영상으로부터 추출된 적설분포의 차이를 우리나라의 충주댐 유역을 중심으로 비교하였다. 밴드별 파장대의 반사 특성을 이용한 MODIS snow cover와 임계값을 선정하여 구하는 NOAA AVHRR는 서로 다른 적설분포를 보였다고 판단되며, 이는 해상도와 영상 합성, snow cover 추출 알고리즘의 차이 및 대기 현상의 영향 등으로 인하여 추출면적 값이 차이를 보이는 것이라 생각된다. 두 영상에 의한 추출면적의 비교분석 결과, 적설분포의 추출에 있어서 두 영상을 서로 절충하여 사용할 수 있다고 판단된다.
