英文摘要 | The Tibetan Plateau frequently experiences snow hazards that endanger livelihoods of local herders. Fast mapping and risk assessments of snow hazards are significant and prerequisite for decision making in mitigating negative impacts of snow hazards and facilitating social adaptation. In this study, we intended to develop a method for fast mapping multiple grades of snow hazards happened on the Tibetan Plateau relying on satellite microwave remote sensing data that can represent critical snow conditions. First, we calculated pasture burial index and continuous days of snow cover and used the two factors to classify pixels of the study area into four grades of snow hazards. Second, we assessed the grades of snow hazards at county scale using the above two factors and the factor of snow cover percentage over each county. Finally, we assessed the accuracy of predicting multiple grades of snow hazards based on remotely sensed data by comparing the above results with ground-recorded historical snow hazards at county scale. The results indicated that the frequencies of four grades of snow hazards had similar spatial patterns with high frequencies in southeast areas and low frequencies in northeast and southwest areas of the Tibetan Plateau. The evaluation results showed that the overall accuracy of the method developed in this study was over 70% and the accuracy of predicting the severe grade of snow hazards was higher than that of the other grades. In conclusion, the method developed in this study was feasible and practical for mapping multiple grades of snow hazards happened on the Tibetan Plateau. |
