英文摘要 | Characterizing and understanding the changes in the flow regimes of rivers have been challenging. Existing global river network data sets are not updated and can only identify rivers wider than 30 m. We propose a novel automated method to map river networks on a monthly basin scale for the first time at 10-m resolution using Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar, Sentinel-2 multispectral images, and the AW3D30 Digital Surface Model. This method achieved an overall accuracy of 95.8%. The total length of the Yellow River network produced is 40,280 km, approximately 3.2 times that of the Global River Widths from Landsat (GRWL) database, more effectively covering small and medium rivers. The monthly river geometry revealed a positive correlation between river network area and precipitation. This study is expected to provide a cost-effective alternative to accurately mapping global river networks and advance our understanding of the changes and drivers of river systems. Understanding the impacts of climate change and human activities on water resources across different regions greatly depends on the knowledge of river networks with high spatial and temporal resolution. Small tributaries are important components in river network evolution and water transmission. To date, several studies have mapped interannual variations in rivers with widths >30 m; however, the distribution and variations in small rivers remain unclear. By integrating multispectral and radar satellite remote sensing images as well as topographic data, we created continuous monthly river network maps at the basin scale, allowing us to capture the details of dynamic changes in river networks with higher spatiotemporal resolution. As a result, the method used in this study provides detailed information on small and medium rivers, with the length of the connected rivers being thrice that of the existing data sets. We demonstrate the possibility of mapping global river networks monthly at a resolution of 10 m, providing valuable information for global surface water resource planning and management and improving our understanding of spatial links between land and water interfaces. |
