Summary, in English

Leaf mass per area (LMA) and equivalent water thickness (EWT) are key indicators providing information on plant growth status and agricultural management, and their retrieval is commonly done through radiative transfer models (RTMs) such as the PROSPECT model. However, the PROSPECT model is frequently hampered by the ill-posed problem as a consequence of measurement and model uncertainties. Here, we propose a wavelength selection method to improve the inversion of EWT and LMA by integrating PROSPECT with a machine learning algorithm (Gaussian process regression (GPR); PROSPECT-GPR for short). The GPR model conducted sorting of wavelengths and the PROSPECT-D was used to determine the optimal number of characteristic wavelengths. The results demonstrated that the estimation of EWT (R2 = 0.80; RMSE = 0.0021) and LMA (R2 = 0.71; RMSE = 0.0021) using the proposed wavelengths and PROSPECT inversion all exhibited superior accuracy in comparison with those from previous studies. The efficacy of PROSPECT-GPR in exploring the spectral linkage among vegetation traits was demonstrated by selecting wavelengths associated with leaf structure parameter N and EWT (1368 nm) that turn out to contribute to the estimation of LMA. The findings lay a strong foundation for understanding the spectral linkage among vegetation traits, and the proposed wavelength selection method provides valuable insights for selecting informative spectral wavelengths for RTMs inversion and designing future remote sensors.
