Abstract Mapping of dispersion of air pollution is complex because it is depends upon various factors including weather conditions, topographical situation of the area and terrain of the area. Even in a small area, air pollution widely varies from place to place according to the local situation of the area such as situation of the building and ventilation condition in traffic corridors. Mathematical models and interpolation methods are widely used to map the dispersion of air pollution. These methods are hampered by the limited number of ground station data and difficulty of considering all the factors that cause dispersion of air pollution. To overcome this problem remote sensing techniques are used. Urban air pollution is studied less extensively using remote sensing techniques, because lack of sensors for detect urban air pollution. Therefore aerosol optical thickness is considered. Aerosol optical thickness indicates how much radiance is disturbed on its way from the earth objects to the sensors. In this study, through establishing the relationship among optical thickness and ground station data, dispersion of urban air pollution is mapped. For this study visible, near infrared and thermal infrared band of the Landsat-7/ETM+ are used. Linear regression analysis is used to establish the relationship between processes images and ground station data. Optical thickness of green and red bands and difference of at-satellite temperature of thermal infrared band show statistically significant relationships with, particulate matter, black particles and carbon monoxide respectively.

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

1. Introduction 1.1.

General Introduction

Air pollution is currently one of the major problems in developed countries as well as in developing countries. It has bad effects on human life causing diseases in respiratory systems and chronic illness (McCubbin and Delucchi 1999), on soil and plants (El Desouky, Moussa et al. 1998) and on the forests (Zhang, Pouyat et al. 2000). Sources of air pollution are twofold: human activities and natural environmental processes. Human activities causing air pollution are industry, use of motorized vehicles and low quality fuel for food preparation and heating purposes (Boyazi 1998). Natural sources are volcanoes, dust storms, forest - and grassland fires etc. Seasonal changes (Cheng and Lam 1997) and chemical reactions contribute to the concentration of the polluted air. There are many factors that cause dispersion of air pollution, including weather conditions such as temperature, wind speed and direction, humidity, topography of the area, relief of the area such as flat or hilly, or the local situation of the area such as whether the area is covered by buildings or whether there is ventilation in traffic corridors. Air quality standards are defined by international organizations (eg. World Health Organization - WHO, European Environmental Agency - EEA) or by local governments (eg. US Environmental Protection Agency - EPA, The National Institute of Public Health and the Environment of the Netherlands RIVM). When concentration of gasses like ground ozone (O3), nitrogen oxides (NOx) carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), sulphur dioxide (SO2), methane (CH4), particulate matter (PM) exceed the defined standards, this is considered air pollution. Generally, the amounts of NOx, CO, SO2, particulate matter (PM), temperature, humidity, wind direction and speed are measured at ground stations. After that, dispersion models or interpolation methods are used to visualize the spatial distribution of air pollution. As an example CAL3QHCR is an air pollution dispersion model developed by the California Department of Transportation. In some cases, the number of vehicles is taken into account where ground station data is not available. Then prior knowledge is used to calculate the amount of air pollution. The air pollution problem is also studied using spatial analysis methods such as buffering and overlay operations. Mathematical models are the most used methods to calculate magnitude and dispersion of urban air pollution (Boyazi 1998; Chakraborty, Forkenbrock et al. 1999). There is a large spatial variability associated with air pollution. Therefore even in a small area, air pollution varies widely from place to place. In general, a limited number of ground data collection locations are available, because ground data collection is expensive (Builtjes, H.M. et al. 2001; Ung, Wald et al. 2001). With limited number of data collection points, use of mathematical models and interpolation methods only does not give a correct picture of the air pollution for any given area. Another drawback of these methods is the difficulty to considering all the factors simultaneously, which cause the dispersion of air pollution. To overcome this problem, remote-sensing techniques can be used.

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

Urban air pollution mostly occurs in the lower troposphere and is less extensively studied using remote sensing images, because of lack of sensors in detecting urban air pollution. In the ENVISAT satellite, there is an instrument called SCIAMACHY to detect large amounts of polluted air, such as identifying industrial areas, in small-scale mapping. One of the sensors used to monitor aerosols over Europe is the Along Track Scanning Radiometer (ATSR), which is on board European Remote Sensing Satellite (ERS-2), and provides column-integrated data at coarse resolution (Builtjes, H.M. et al. 2001). Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer MODIS and Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR) are sensors at Terra satellite used to detect climate change by aerosols (w3 2002). The recent air pollution researches are in the direction of detecting air pollution using aerosol optical thickness. Tiny particles called aerosols and gasses at the atmosphere disturb the radiance reaching to the sensor by scattering and absorption. This reduces the contrast of the remotely sensed images (Sifakis and Paronis 1998). Optical thickness indicates the amount of scattering and absorption by particles and gasses. Many studies have been carried out in the field of air pollution. However there remain some questions to be studied. For example: How can the air pollution be visualized in a map using a limited number of ground data collected stations? Can mathematical models be built using only ground data to calculate the magnitude and dispersion of air pollution correctly? How far can direct and indirect factors related to the air pollution be modelled? Is it possible to use the models that are calibrated for one country, for another country? Is it possible to use the remotely sensed images to map dispersion of air pollution? This study focused on the mapping of dispersion of air pollution using remote sensing techniques and ground station data.

Research Objective

Finding a suitable method to map urban air pollution using remote sensing techniques and ground data. 1.2.1. Research Questions 1. What is a suitable method for detecting aerosol optical thickness, using remotely sensed images? 2. What are the relationships between remote sensing images and air pollution data collected at ground stations? 3. How can selected components of air pollution be mapped in an urban area? The basic method used was a radiometric comparison of a satellite image under polluted condition, with a reference image acquired under unpolluted condition. Prior knowledge of ground data was used to select a pollution free reference image. In remote sensing techniques, different algorithms were used to detect aerosol optical thickness according to the different sensors. Even with the same sensor, methods of detecting aerosols differ according to the chosen spectral band (Sifakis and Deschamps 1992; Sifakis and Paronis 1998; Retalis, Caralis et al. 1999; Wald and Baleynaud 1999; Ung, Wald et al. 2001).

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

Sifakis and Deschamps (1998) state that “Various methods are available to deal with the task of isolating the aerosol optical thickness by means of high spatial resolution (HSR) sensors, namely: `the ocean method’ applied over clear water using visible data or infrared data (e.g. Griggs 1975 ); the `brightness method’ applied over land using data in the visible spectrum (Fraser et al. 1984 ); the `contrastreduction method’ applicable over land (Tanre et al. 1988) or a mixture of land and water (Kergomard and Tanre 1989 );and the `dark vegetation method’ using long-wavelength visible data (Kaufman and Sendra 1988 ).” Holben, Vermote et al. (1992), have discussed these methods briefly. In this study, the method developed by Sifakis and Paronis (1998) is selected to detect urban air pollution using remote sensing techniques. In Sifakis and Paronis (1998) method, aerosol optical thickness (AOT) and difference of at-satellite temperature were calculated using remotely sensed images to detect urban air pollution.

1.3.

Methodology in General

To achieve the research objective, the methodology of this study is mainly split into three parts:

1. Detect aerosol optical thickness and at-satellite temperature using Remote Sensing images. 2. Find relationships between aerosol optical thickness and air pollution data from ground stations.

3. Map the urban air pollution for selected pollutants, using aerosol optical thickness and relationships derived in step 2.

1.4.

Data Requirement in General

To follow the methodology mentioned in section 1.3, there should be remotely sensed images as well as ground data for the corresponding time at satellite overpass. As further explained in the description of the methodology in Chapter 3, spatial and spectral resolutions are important. To meet the requirement of the methodology, only the green band and the thermal infrared band of Landsat satellite images are needed. Because of data availability this method is tested for blue, green, red, near infrared and thermal infrared bands of Landsat-7/ETM+. Hourly-recorded ground station data of particulate matter (PM10), Carbon monoxide (CO), Nitrogen oxide (NO), Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) Sulphur dioxide (SO2), Ammonia (NH3), Ozone (O3) and the daily average of black particles (BP) are considered according to the availability of data.

2. Urban Air Pollution and Remotely Sensed Images 2.1.

Introduction

In this chapter Section 2.2 describes how urban air pollution affects remote sensing images. Section 2.3 briefly summarises other studies on urban air pollution using remote sensing images.

2.2.

Aerosol optical thickness and related air pollution gasses

Most of the studies have used aerosol optical thickness to study urban air pollution as explained in Section 2.3. In some articles aerosol optical thickness is described as aerosol optical depth (AOD) as well. Optical depth is a measure of the transmittance of a vertical atmospheric column of unit cross-sectional area. A large optical depth implies less atmospheric transmittance. The transmissivity of the atmosphere has a value between 0 and 1, where 0 corresponds to a perfectly opaque atmosphere and 1 corresponds to a perfectly transparent atmosphere. Optical thickness also called “turbidity” and is a dimensionless, positive number (DuBois 1998). The optical depth is a result of the combined effect of scattering and absorption in a vertical column. Major contributors to this extinction in the atmosphere are aerosols and air molecules. The optical depth due to aerosols only is called aerosol optical depth (Satheesh 2002). Aerosols are tiny particles varying from 10–3 to 102 µm in size. Aerosols in 0.1 µm to 1µm significantly influence the visible solar radiation (Satheesh 2002). These are added to the atmosphere because of human activities, mainly industries and fuel burning and natural processes such as volcanoes, dust storms, forest - and grassland fires and sea spray. Except to these direct methods, different chemical reactions generate aerosols, these reactions are called “gas to particle conversion” processes. Lifetime of the aerosols in the troposphere mainly depends upon the particle size. It’s normally from a few hours to a few days. Large particles are falling because of gravity, which is called “dry deposition” or “sedimentation”. Small particles are removed by rainfall, which is called “wet removal” or “rain out”. Aerosol particles may be solid or liquid. Aerosols consist of sulphates and nitrates mostly due to industrial activities and volcano eruptions, mineral dust due to surface wind (dust storms), organic aerosols due to gas to particle conversion, carbonaceous aerosols (soot) due to fuel burning and sea salt due to sea spray. Aerosol particles larger than 1µm in size are produced by windblown dust and sea salt from sea spray and busting bubbles. Aerosols smaller than 1µm are mostly formed by condensation processes such as conversion of SO2 gas to sulphate particles and by formation of soot and smoke during burning processes (w2 2002).

Scattering and absorption effects of the aerosols differ with the method of generation and chemical properties of aerosols. Particles originating from combustion processes usually have high absorption properties, eg. soot. Sulphate and nitrate aerosols have scattering effects hence solar radiation is reflected back to space. This increases the outgoing radiation to the sensors. In general scattering and absorption reduce the solar radiation reaching the earth’s surface and increase the outgoing radiation due to backscatter (Satheesh 2002). Sources of carbon monoxide (CO) are fossil fuels and biomass burning. Its lifetime in the troposphere is several months. CO has a large influence on methane oxidation. Increase of methane is related to increases in CO. Sulphur dioxide (SO2), enters to the atmosphere as a result of both natural phenomena like volcanic eruptions and anthropogenic activities like combustion of fossil fuels and biomass burning. Sulphur dioxide reacts on the surface of a variety of airborne solid particles (aerosols), is soluble in water and can be oxidised within airborne water droplets, producing sulphuric acid. The lifetime of sulphur dioxide molecules in the troposphere is a few days. The amount is highly variable, in gas phase by formation of sulphuric acid, and directly forming aerosols and clouds. The lifetime of sulphur dioxide molecules in the stratosphere due to volcano eruption, on the other hand, is several weeks. During this time it produces sulphate aerosols. NO and NO2 together are called NOx. Human activities such as traffic and industry are the main sources of NOx. The amount of ozone in the troposphere is largely determined by the concentration of NOx. Lifetime of NOx in the troposphere is short (w1 2002). In ground stations common pollutant measurements are NOx, CO, SO2, particulate matter (PM). When the particle size is less than 10µm it is denoted as PM10. Even though aerosols consist of a lot of components, this study only considers the commonly available ground measurements data for air pollution. Those are PM10, CO, NO, NO2, SO2, NH3, O3 and BP. It is clear that there are lots of sources and components causing generation of aerosols. In the images, there are no methods to separate aerosol optical thickness according to components or to source. For this reason, aerosol optical depth would not give a good relationship with pollutant components collected at ground level, when components would be considered separately.

2.3.

Studies of Urban Air Pollution Using Remote Sensing Images

Use of satellite images to detect urban air pollution is not very common. Images are used to detect air pollution at regional level, in coarser resolution. Some of the studies that have been carried out are summarized below. Crist (1984), describes the method to normalize Landsat data affected by haze, using the third feature of the Tasseled Cap transformation. He stated that the “Analysis revealed that changes in the amount of aerosol scattering caused a predictable shift in the MSS data plane in the Yellowness direction”. Further he explains that “Since atmospheric scattering decreases in severity with increasing wave length, and since the visible bands of the Landsat MSS sensor (band 1 and 2) are highly correlated in their response to surface features, a contrast of these two bands, as represented in Yellowness, could be expected to provide atmospheric scattering information. After elimination of residual scene effects and noise by means of a moving window low pass spatial filter, Yellowness proved to be a reliable indica-

tor of the level of atmospheric haze”. He has used both laboratory data and actual Landsat data in his study. Tanre, Deschamps et al. (1988) present a method which allows to derive aerosol optical thickness over land surfaces from satellite data by using the blurring effect due to scattering. They have summarised their work as “By assuming the ground reflectance to be constant, variations of the satellite signal may be attributed to variations of the atmospheric optical properties. The time evolution of the structure function then allows to infer the aerosol content over land surfaces. The method was applied to Saharan aerosols, which represent the most important contribution to the atmospheric aerosol loading. The result derived from Thematic Mapper data proved to be in good agreement with simultaneous groundbased measurements. Therefore the method seems able to provide the aerosol contents during Saharan dust events”. Sifakis and Deschamps (1992), used SPOT XS1 band to map the horizontal dispersion of airborne particles over urban polluted areas. In this study two satellite images were radiometrically compared. One image under polluted condition and an other image called reference image acquired under clear atmospheric condition. By this method they have approximated the AOD (AOT). In this study they have assumed that the intrinsic surface radiance has remained unchanged. Poli, Pignataro et al. (1994) have studied the relationship between an apparent temperature of Rome (Italy) and the total particulate matter suspended in the air (TPM). The TPM as well as sulphur dioxide were measured at five locations and were summed daily. The particulate matter is assumed to be a significant tracer of the atmospheric pollution as well as a good indicator of the air quality. They have found a strong negative correlation (-0.97) between the satellite derived temperature and the TPM. Confidence level was above 95%. On the contrary, the correlation between the SO2 and satellite derived temperature was weak and there was no significant relationship. Sifakis and Paronis (1998) present a further developed method than that presented by Sifakis and Deschamps in 1992. They have pointed out that the method presented in 1992 can misclassify the AOT due to ground reflectance temporal variation. To prevent from this misclassification they have introduced a method called ‘temperature attenuation procedure’ which uses the thermal bands. Here they have used the visible bands as well as the thermal bands of Landsat-5 / TM. Visible bands were processed according to the method developed in 1992 and thermal bands were processed separately. Finally they have taken the common area of both procedures as polluted area. Retalis, Caralis et al. (1999) have used basically the same method as that discussed in Sifakis and Deschamps (1992). They have used spectral region 0.45-0.52µm i.e. band 1 of Landsat-5/TM. In this study, they have assumed that the atmospheric thickness of the reference day as zero (τ1 = 0). This result was called ‘optical density’. They have graphically shown that SO2 and smoke have a positive relationship with ‘optical density’, using only three ground station data. In this study, spatial distribution of aerosols was assessed qualitatively. Wald and Baleynaud (1999) investigated the potentials of satellite-made observations for the mapping of air quality parameters. For this study Landsat TM6 thermal infrared band was used. It was found 7

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

that the amount of black particulates is highly correlated to the apparent temperature observed by the satellite. They have concluded that the mapping of the spatial distribution of the black particulates is possible from remotely sensed data even though it is not very accurate and discussed possible improvements. They have stated that “Analysis of the TM6 image reveals that the change in temperature from a polluted area to an unpolluted, one of similar type of land use, may be several degrees Celsius.” The paper has reviewed other studies related to ground station data and the thermal band of remotely sensed images. Ung, Wald et al. (2001) discuss the importance of studying urban air pollutions, drawbacks of existing methods and proposed a method using virtual stations. In their method they have defined pseudo stations, which have the same environmental, morphological and pollution sources as real measuring stations, using existing measuring stations and other data. By establishing the relationship between DN numbers of Landsat bands and pollutants from real measuring stations, virtual stations are defined out of pseudo stations, where the pollutants can be predicted by the derived relationship. They have used the thin plate interpolation method to map black particles using real measuring and virtual station data. They state that “Actually, no accurate knowledge of the spatial distribution of atmospheric pollutants, over a city is currently available.” They conclude the study by saying “It shows that the mapping of concentration of black particles is possible using the thermal band TM6 image of the Landsat satellite. The use of remotely sensed data for the mapping of pollutants over a city brings a better spatialisation of the phenomena under study”.

3. Method, Data and Study Area 3.1.

Introduction

Methodology, data requirements, data availability and data selection are described in this chapter. In Section 3.2 the method that is used to achieve the objective of the study is discussed. Details and background of the method discussed under Section 3.2.1. In Section 3.3, Section 3.3.1 and 3.3.2 contain the data requirement and availability respectively, which are necessary to follow the method discussed in Section 3.2. Data selection and air pollution standards that are considered for data selection are included in Section 3.4. The selection of the study area is based on data availability. The selected study area is described in Section 3.5

3.2.

Method

To map urban air pollution using remote sensing techniques and ground data, it is important in the first place to select a method for detecting urban air pollution using remote sensing techniques. The method developed by Sifakis and Paronis (1998) is selected to detect urban air pollution using remote sensing techniques. In this method aerosol optical thickness (AOT) was calculated using remotely sensed images to detect urban air pollution. The absorption effect of the polluted components was estimated using the difference of at-satellite temperature (AT). Regression analysis is used to establish a relationship between air pollution data collected at ground stations and the AOT or AT from processed images corresponding to ground data collection stations. To do the regression analysis, each of the airpollution components, which are collected at ground stations, are considered separately. Final step of the method is mapping of air pollution for separate components over the study area using AOT or AT and the relationships from the regression analysis. This method is illustrated in Figure 3.1.

3.2.1. Method in Detail A combination of two independent methods is used to evaluate the optical thickness of aerosol scattering and absorption in the visible (τascat at 0.55 µm) and thermal parts of the spectrum, namely ‘Blurring effect’ and ‘Screening effect’. Blurring effect By `Blurring effect’ the spectral response patterns in the images are distorted due to the contrast reduction caused by ‘scattering-efficient airborne particles’ at short wavelengths. In this study, the equation derived by Sifakis and Deschamps (1992) is used to calculate the aerosol optical thickness. This method consideres the total transmission of down-welling irradiance and up-welling radiance as described in Figure 3.2.

Figure 3.2: Various components of total transmission of downwelling irradiance and upwelling radiance

The basic equation that was used to calculate apparent reflectance at satellite is Equation 3.1 (Sifakis and Deschamps 1992). Three stages of this equation were discussed according to the target diameter. For large dimension targets (such as > 1km), Equation 3.1 was used. Once the diameter is less than 100m, the adjacency effect is also introduced as in Equation 3.2. It was assumed that “the standard deviation expresses the analogical contrast in images”. Then the relationship between the standard deviation of apparent reflectance σ(ρ*) and the standard deviation of real reflectance σ(ρ) was derived as shown in Equation 3.3, assuming uniform background contribution to all the surrounding pixels. Only all the surrounding pixels. Another reason to select this Equation (3.3) was, that urban areas compose of small targets.

- solar zenithal angle θs - observation zenithal angle θv T(θs) - total transmission function on the downwelling path It can be analysed as the sum of tdir(θs) and tdiff(θs) which are direct and diffused transmission functions. T(θv) - total transmission function on the upwelling path It can be analysed as the sum of tdir(θv) and tdiff(θv) which are direct and diffused transmission functions

ρ* = ρ

where ρe

- reflectance from the adjacent objects

σ(ρ *) = σ(ρ )

T(θs ) t dir (θ v ) 1 − ρS

(3.3)

where σ(ρ*) and σ(ρ) are standard deviation of apparent and surface reflectance respectively. Using Lambert-Bouguer’s transmission law as shown in Equation 3.4, Equation 3.3 was converted to the Equation 3.5.

t dir (ϑ v ) = exp(−k λ m)

(3.4)

Where -kλm is aerosol optical thickness (AOT, dimensionless) and measured normal to the rays (Iqbal 1983). When viewing angle (observation zenith angle) is θv and the AOT is denoted as τ then AOT along the path is τ/cosθv. Then Equation 3.3 can be represented as 3.5.

σ(ρ *) = σ(ρ )

T (θs ) exp(−τ / cos θ v ) 1 − ρS

(3.5)

Equation 3.5 can be applied to reference (clear) day and to a polluted day respectively as follows (3.6 and 3.7). The factor T(θs) may be taken as constant independently of any temporal variation in AOT, because variation of its two additionals (tdir(θs) and tdiff(θs)) cancel out each other i.e. tdir(θs) diminishes at the same time as tdiff(θs) increases when τ increases (Sifakis and Deschamps 1992). Ratio of Equation 3.6 over 3.7 can be written as a 3.8.

σ1 (ρ) = exp((−τ1 / cos θ v1 ) + ( τ 2 / cos θ v 2 ) ) σ 2 (ρ)

(3.8)

This Equation (3.8) is used when AOT is calculated due to scattering effect at Section 4.2. Optical thickness can include scattering effect as well as absorption effect due to molecules and particles. This can be written down as Equation 3.9.

τ = τ am + τ ap + τsm + τsp

(3.9)

where τ represent optical thickness, superscripts ‘a’ and ‘s’ are represent absorption and scattering respectively and subscript ‘m’ and ‘p’ represent molecules and particles respectively. Absorption due to molecules is minimal in remotely sensed images because sensors use atmospheric windows to produce images. In small wavelengths absorption by particles is negligible and to a lesser degree also in the near-infrared. This is true when the aerosols contain no or few black particles. Rayleigh type scattering can be expected due to gasses (molecules), such as N2, O2, O3 and CO2. Molecular scattering can be considered as constant in similar atmospheric pressure conditions. Mie type scattering can be caused by particles with a size around 0.08 to 2.5 µm. With much bigger particles, non-selective type scattering can be expected (Sifakis and Deschamps 1992). According to these factors, optical thickness that is calculated using Equation 3.8 can be considered due to particle scattering when considering small wavelengths. Screening effect The `Screening effect’ results in a veiling of the images at longer wavelengths due to the radiation attenuation of particles that engender predominantly through absorption (Sifakis and Paronis 1998). This was calculated using thermal infrared bands. Absorption results in a reduction of the incoming solar radiation to the ground as well as the radiative temperature at-satellite. Equation 3.10 was used to calculate screening effect using two images, i.e. those of polluted and reference days. ∆T* = T1*- T2* = Te1 - Te2 + ∆Ta1- ∆Ta2 + ∆Tg1- ∆Tg2

(3.10)

where T1*, T2*

- observed radiative temperatures measured in the image Te1, Te2 - target’s radiative temperatures at the moment of image acquisition ∆Ta1, ∆Ta2 - local variations of the radiative temperature introduced by the presence of aerosols ∆Tg1, ∆Tg2 - variations of the radiative temperature due to changes in gas concentration Note: 1 and 2 are images for reference and polluted days respectively.

If there is no noticeable difference in atmospheric pressure between two days on which the images are taken, then Tg1 = Tg2. Intrinsic radiative temperature of the targets (Te1 and T e2) are subjected to variation in solar angle and air temperature. However, assuming that (Te1-Te2) is constant throughout the land area covered by the scene, any remaining decrease in the observed radiative temperature (atsatellite temperature) at pixel level can be attributed to attenuation engendered by aerosols (Sifakis and Paronis 1998). 12

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

Relationship between AOT or AT and air pollution ground station data In this study the known variable over the study area is AOT or AT, therefore it will become an independent variable. Air pollution components such as PM10, CO, NO, NO2, SO2, NH3, O3 and BP are known only at ground collection stations (i.e. unknowns over the study area). Therefore they will become a dependent variable, one at a time. Regression analysis is used to build a relationship between dependant and independent variables. In regression analysis R statistics, multiple R, R2, adjusted R2, standard error of the estimate, f-statistics, t-significance, Regression coefficient B and standard error of B can be used to check the goodness of fit. To do this analysis a statistical package called “Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS)” is used.

3.3.

Data requrement and availability

3.3.1. Data requirement To follow the method discussed in Section 3.2, two types of basic data are required, namely remotely sensed data and air pollution data collected at ground level. The method is based on radiometric comparison; hence data is needed for two days, one under clear atmospheric condition called reference data and one of a polluted day. Remotely sensed images In case of images two spectral bands are required, i.e. bands at visible and thermal infrared. Sifakis and Deschamps and Sifakis and Paronis (1992; 1998) mentioned that AOT can be detected successfully in the green band. Two images are required, one for pollution free (less polluted) and one under polluted condition. The method discussed in Section 3.2 is valid only over land areas. Therefore having cloud free images is important. Atmospherically corrected data cannot be used with the above-mentioned method. Stretch or other contrast enhancement technique should not be applied to the images. Ground data The study requires data from several ground stations, spread over the study area, which measure different air polluting components separately. Ground data should be collected at same day as the images are acquired. If ground data is available at ‘the time’ that the satellite over passed, then a good relationship between images and ground data can be expected. Weather condition at the ground stations is also important in this kind of analysis. In calculation of the screening effect it is assumed that the absorption by gasses is equal when the pressure is similar at two selected days. Therefore to check the validity of this assumption, there should be at least atmospheric pressure data corresponding to selected days. If an air pollution free day is selected using ground data, data should be available for a considerable time period, at least for two to three years. It is not easy to find a less air-polluted day, which coincides with a cloud free image.

Other data that can be use for the study If the images need to be geo-referenced, it is useful to have map sheets in required scale and coordinate system, or one needs GPS coordinates at several places that can be identified on the images. Weather conditions like wind speed and direction can be helpful to explain the results of the study. Air pollution related facts like traffic volumes, road network, urban areas, industries or industrial areas are also useful to explain the outputs. 3.3.2. Data availability Ground data availability The Netherlands is selected for the study because of easy access to ground data. The National Institute of Public Health and the Environment of the Netherlands (RIJKSINSTITUUT VOOR VOLKSGEZONDHEID EN MILIEU – RIVM) are collecting data on an hourly basis for PM10, CO, NO, NO2, SO2, NH3, O3 and daily average of black particles. Data is available from January 2000 to March 2002 in RIVM web site http://www.lml.rivm.nl/. RIVM report 723101 055 (van Elzakker 2001) explains about the measuring instruments in the Dutch air quality network. Same report mention that the PM10 values are multiplied by 1.33 to correct the systematic errors. Initially Utrecht and Rotterdam area were selected as study area, after a quick look to the ground data. In this area pollution can be expected, since it is urban, densely populated with housing, industries and traffic. Another fact that has been considered selecting Utrecht and Rotterdam area is Figure 3.3: Ground stations that the two areas are situated considerably close and a large number of ground stations are situated in the area (Figures 3.3 and 3.4). To select a polluted and a reference day eight and nine locations are selected around Rotterdam and Utrecht area respectively. Polluting components that considered are PM10, CO, NO, NO2, SO2, and O3. Table 3.1 shows the data availability for selected components in Utrecht and Rotterdam area. Ground stations at Utrecht-Rotterdam area are shown in Figure 3.4.

Image availability With respect to images Landsat-7/ETM+ is selected because it has visible bands as well as thermal bands in high spatial resolution. Landsat image availability is searched in the “EOS Data Gateway” web site (w6). Ground data availability, that is time period from 1st January 2000 to 31st March 2002, is considered to search the image availability. Rotterdam area is searched under latitude – longitude N51.49 - 52.1 and E3.84 - 4.71 and 44 images are found. Utrecht area is searched under latitude – longitude N51.8 – 52.3 and E 5.1 – 5.75 and 98 images are found. Landsat has sidelap approximately 7% at the equator to nearly 84% at 810 north or south latitude. Path 199 and row 24 covers only the Rotterdam area. Path 198 and row 24 covers both areas Rotterdam and Utrecht because of the sidelap. All the images over the selected area were taken around 10.25am to 10.35am in GMT time. 3.4.

Data selection and Standards

Not all the search outputs can be used because of cloud cover. Seven images in Utrecht area (UT) and fourteen in Rotterdam area (RT) are found under conditions with few clouds. Four images are common for both areas. Figure A1.1 in Appendix 1 shows image availability. Date, area covered by the particular image (UT or RT or both) and cloud cover of the particular area is mentioned below each image. Ground data corresponding to image available days are analysed. Ground stations and pollutant components mentioned in Table 3.1 are considered in this analysis. Minimum, maximum, daily average and hourly average are taken into account to find out a clear day and a polluted day. Analysis is separately done for Rotterdam and Utrecht areas using Excel software. Outputs showed similar pattern of polluting components in hourly average and daily average even though the magnitudes are different. The main difficulty that faced is, different components show different high and low days of pollution and this also changes with locations as shown in Figure A1.2 in Appendix 1. 15

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

As an example, PM10, CO and NO in Rotterdam area show that the 23rd of December 2000 has highest concentrations while SO2 and NO2 show that the 15th of November 2001 has the highest concentrations. O3 shows highest concentrations on 26th of July 2001. This is also valid for the Utrecht area. To overcome this problem more than one higher and lower days are selected for each component, from all the considered ground stations. This analysis is carried out using daily averages, rather than looking on an hourly basis. Daily average of pollutant concentrations for the days that the images are available, are tabulated in Appendix 1 Table A1.1. Summaries are shown in Tables 3.2 and 3.3.

Next the image availability (Appendix 1, Figure A1.1) is considered to select maximum and minimum polluted days from above tables. As an example 23rd of July 2000 is the minimum polluted day for Rotterdam area and for this day an image is not available for Utrecht area. In case of Utrecht most polluted day is 23rd of February 2000 and it is not the case for Rotterdam area, then the second highest is considered. Likewise 3rd of July 2001 is selected as day with lowest pollution and as day with highest pollution day 23rd of December 2000 is selected. CO and PM10 are also considered in selecting these dates, because it is expected that the aerosols are more related with CO and PM10. Data of these two days are compared with pollution standards of the Netherlands. Standards are taken from RIVM web. RIVM use standard values based on European Union (EU). Only for the O3 this values will be changed in 2003/2004. 16

Threshold values, which are tabulated in Table 3.4, are compared with pollution concentrations of selected days (Table 3.5). In Table 3.5 maximum value is with respect to the 23rd of December 2000 and minimum is with respect to the 3rd of July 2001. O3 shows low concentration at 23rd December and high value on 3rd July, different to the other pollution components. Daily average values are used for comparison, except for NO2. In NO2 hourly average corresponding to the time of satellite overpass, is used. Even though NOx contain both NO and NO2, NO couldn’t be compared because only annual average threshold exists. CO couldn’t be compared because standards are given for 8-hour averages.

Study Area

According to the standards the 23rd of December 2000 and the 3rd of July 2001 images are selected as polluted and clear days respectively. In cloud free condition, these images covered a larger area than Rotterdam and Utrecht area. Therefore this study can be carried out in five provinces out of the twelve provinces of the Netherlands. Those provinces are Zeeland, Noord-Brabant, Limburg, Zuid-Holland and Utrecht. Cloud cover of the 23rd of December image mainly covers the northFigure 3.5: Study area west and the 3rd of July image covers the northeast of the Netherlands as shown in Figure A1.1 (Appendix 1). Especially the Utrecht area is partly covered by clouds on both images. North of Zuid-Holland, northeast of Noord-Brabant and north of Limburg are also affected by cloud cover (Figure 3.5). Once the area covered by cloud is carefully excluded, more ground stations than those that were considered in Section 3.4 can be included in the study. That is 28 out of 48 ground data collection stations can be considered in this study as shown in Figure 3.6. Comparison of pollutants at each location for reference and pollutant days can be represented graphically as Figure A1.3 in Appendix 1. The locations given in the x-axis are the same as the GS_ID in Table 5.1. Once the cloud cover and water bodies are removed (Section 4.2), the area that is considered for the study is about 11,000 km2. The width of the study area is about 180km and the length is about 100km. Major road and rail network is spread over the area as show in Figure 3.7. There are nine airports in the study area. Two of them i.e. Rotterdam and Maastricht are categorized as active civil and others as active military in ESRI “The Digital Chart of the World for use with ARC/INFO”, November 1993 digital data.

age show that the Rotterdam area is more urbanized than the other areas (Figure 3.8). Urban areas over southwest of the study area are very low. One of the biggest harbours in the world is situated at Rotterdam. All the images and other spatial data that have been used for this study are in UTM projection, Datum WGS 1984, Ellipsoid WGS84, Northern hemisphere, Zone 31.

Introduction

This chapter describes calculation of aerosol optical thickness using visible bands in Section 4.2 and calculation of difference of at-satellite temperature using the thermal infrared band in Section 4.3. For this analysis visible bands 1, 2, 3, near infrared band (band 4), and thermal infrared band (band 6) are used. Middle infrared band (band 7) is used for qualitative checking of presence of aerosols at the atmosphere. Spatial and spectral resolution of theses bands can be tabulated as Table 4.1 for Landsat7/ETM+.

Calculation of aerosol optical thickness

The process of calculation of aerosol optical thickness using visible bands and NIR band of Landsat-7/ ETM+ can be shown as in Figure 4.1. December 23rd image is used as a reference image in the image registration. To calculate the reflectance values at satellite, digital numbers (DN) of images are first converted to the radiance values at satellite (Lλ). This is calculated by Equation 4.1 (w3 2002) for the first four bands of Landsat 7. A and B of the equation are called ‘gain’ and ‘offset’. Minimum radiance for each band was taken as offset value. Gain calculation is done as in Equation 4.2. In this equation Lmin and Lmax are minimum and maximum radiance values, which are taken from the header file of an image. Qmin and Qmax are minimum and maximum pixel values, also taken from the header files. This equation varies according to the source of image acquisition. This was explained in the Landsat-7 Science Data Users Handbook (w3 2002) as “LPGS (EOS Data Gateway) uses 1 for Qmin while NLAPS (EarthExplorer) uses 0 for Qmin. Other product differences exist as well”. For this study images are acquired through EOS Data Gateway. Therefore, Qmin is considered as 1. Calculated gain and offset values are shown in Table 4.2. These calculated gain and offset values are compared with USGS document titled “MRTC 2000 Image Processing Procedure” (w4 2002) and values are compatible up to two decimals.

After that radiance values are converted to the reflectance values at top of the atmosphere (TOA) using Equation 4.3 (w3 2002; w4 2002). In some documents reflectance at TOA (ρλ) is called reflectance at satellite (w4 2002) and in some documents it is called planetary reflectance or albedo (w3 2002). This is called as apparent reflectance by Sifakis and Deschamps (1992). Equation 4.4 is used to calculate the earth sun distance in astronomical units (Bandara 1998). These values are cross-checked with Landsat 7 Science Data Users Handbook (w3 2002). Equation 4 gives compatible results for Julian days 1, 182 and 365 with the Landsat 7 Science Data Users Handbook (w3 2002) document. Sun earth distances are compatible up to 3 decimal places for the particular days that the images are acquired for the study, compared to Landsat 7 Science Data Users Handbook. E0λ, extraterrestrial solar irradiance incident at the horizontal plane in Watts/(m2 * µm) is taken from the Landsat 7 Science Data Users Handbook (w3 2002). This is a band specific constant value, shown in Table 4.3. Sun zenith angle is taken from the header file for each image. Erdas Imagine 8.5 and Excel are used for these calculations.

Aerosol optical thickness is calculated using Equation 4.5, which is derived from Equation 3.8 (Sifakis and Deschamps 1992). Water bodies and clouds are to be removed because this equation gives correct values of aerosol optical thickness only over the land. In Equation 4.5, standard deviations of the apparent reflectance are used to calculate AOT. To calculate the standard deviation of apparent reflectance, images are divided into 20 x 20 pixel grid cells (in 30 m resolution). 20 X 20 pixel grid cells To find local standard deviations 20 X 20 pixel grid cells are used (in 30m resolusion). Then one grid cell represents 600m X 600m on the ground. Sifakis and Deschamps (1992) called these grid cells as ‘arrays’. To select the grid cells the considerations of Sifakis and Deschamps (1992) are the following: The spectral response of the ground within each array (grid cells) will be assumed as variable in • space but not in time. Atmospheric composition within each array (grid cell) will be considered as variable in time but • not in space, so that σ(ρ) will be attributed to ground spectral variations exclusively. Sifakis and Paronis (1998) states that requirements of selecting grid cells as follows: It is large enough to include some visible ground structure • Sufficiently small to allow consideration of a homogeneous atmosphere inside the grid cells. •

σ1 (ρ) = exp((−τ1 / cos θ v1 ) + ( τ 2 / cos θ v 2 ) ) σ 2 (ρ)

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

Viewing angle (Observation zenith angle) Landsat-7/ETM+ is nadir looking satellite. Therefore the viewing angle or observation zenith angle is zero in the scene centre. Away from the centre of scene, the viewing angle can be larger than zero. The maximum value of the viewing angle, at the edges of the scene, can be calculated as 7.3950, since the altitude of Landsat 7 is 705 km and the swath width is 183km. This means that the viewing angle ranges from 0 to 7.3950 for any Landsat image, as shown in Figure 4.2. To generalize the viewing angle, 5.230 can be selected which is in between 00 and 7.3950 with +/- 0.417% error, or since the angle is very small, observation zenith can be assumed 00 with 0.83% error at scene end and with zero error at nadir. For this study observation zenith is assumed 00, so that Equation 3.8 can be simplified as 4.5.

Water bodies The December 23rd image is used to remove the water bodies, because in summer, on the 3rd July image, less water bodies may be visible. In case of removing water bodies, NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index), density slicing, unsupervised classification with 20 and 30 classes, supervised classification and digitized water boundary map were considered. In density slicing, a histogram of DN values of band four is considered. Even though water and land are very slightly mixed up at 18-20, 20 is used as cut off value for land and water, as two peaks are clearly separated at DN values around 1820. Under supervised classification, box, minimum distances to mean, minimum Mahalanobis distance and maximum likelihood classification methods are considered. In NDVI all negative val- Figure 4.3: Water bodies and land, ues are considered as water bodies. All the methods in super- by maximum likely hood method vised classification except for the box method, clearly distinguish main water bodies from the land. The box classifier shows more unknowns and with increase of the threshold value, it shows more inland water areas. Density slicing and maximum likelihood methods show less inland water bodies than NDVI. When considering the inland minor water bodies, NDVI, minimum distance to the mean and unsupervised classification show good results when compared with digitized data. These methods show more water bodies than the digitized map. Unsupervised classification with 20 and 30 classes shows water bodies up to four and three classes respectively in two methods. From these two methods unsupervised classification with 20 classes gives clear distinction between water and land. Minimum distance to mean method and unsupervised classification with 20 classes show continuity of inland water bodies like canals rather than NDVI. 24

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

The drawback of the NDVI, minimum distance to the mean, unsupervised classification and density slicing is, that these methods misclassify urban areas as water. Urban areas have mixed textures and therefore the DN values of such areas have large standard deviations. In density slicing, it is difficult to fix the cut off value for the DN to separate water and land. Maximum likelihood method is selected to distinguish water bodies and land, even though this method show less amount of water bodies; it does not misclassify the urban areas. Majority filters are not used to recalculate the most frequently occurring values because small water features would disappear. A summary of these methods is given in Appendix 2 Table A2.1. Figure 4.3 shows the water bodies and land by maximum likelihood method. Top left hand side of the figure is area of sea covered by the cloud. Cloud cover Cloud areas are excluded using province boundaries and by manual digitising, trying to keep survey locations as much as possible. Both images, that is, of the clear day and of the polluted day, are used to prepare cloud cover as shown in Figure 4.4.

Difference of at-satellite temperature

The screening effect is calculated using Equation 3.10 (Sifakis and Paronis 1998), for thermal infrared band 6 of the Landsat-7/ETM+. In band 6, two gains are available in Landsat-7/ETM+, one for low gain often referred as band 6L and one for high gain referred as 6H. Band 6L saturates at 347.5K and 6H saturates at 322K. Band 6H is more sensitive to most land targets, while 6L is used when the temperature of some land surfaces like desert, sand beach and impervious surfaces is higher than 322K (w4 2002). Therefore in this study thermal infrared bad 6H is used. Between the two images difference in radiative temperature due to change in gases concentration are assumed as negligible (section 3.2.1 method in detail, screening effect), because there is no noticeable difference in atmospheric pressure between two examined days as shown in Table 4.4. Target’s radiative temperature is assumed constant as explained in Section 3.2.1. This constant is eliminated from the equation using a cut-off value as further explained in Section 6.2. The observed radiative temperature (at-satellite temperature) is calculated using Equation 4.6. In some documents this is called “effective at-satellite temperature” (w3 2002). Calculation steps of at-satellite temperature (observed radiative temperature) are shown in Figure 4.5. 25

Equations 4.1 and 4.2 are used to calculate the spectral radiance (Lλ). At-satellite temperature is calculated per pixel. Equation 4.6 is applied to calculate “difference in radiative temperature”; it is not calculated at pixel level but average value over 10 by 10 pixel grid cells (for thermal bands of Landsat7/ETM+ resolution is 60m). That is average radiative temperature value over 600x600 m2 grid area. Then the differences are calculated by subtracting polluted day temperature values from those of the reference day. AOT for band one to four, difference of at-satellite temperature (AT2) and histograms for corresponding images are shown in Appendix 2, Figure A2.1. Minimum and maximum values of AOT/AT2 are given below the relevant figure. Corresponding grid cell values of aerosol optical thickness to the data collection station at ground is considered to carry out the regression analysis.

5. Regression Analysis This chapter describes establishing relationships of aerosol optical thickness and difference of atsatellite temperature with air pollutant data collected at ground level. The method used to establish the relationships is regression analysis. From this study it was understood that the selection of grid in Chapter 4 has a large influence on the regression results. Grids can be mainly divided in to two categories. They are arbitrary grids and ideal grids. Section 5.2 describes the regression analysis under arbitrary grid situation and Section 5.3 describes the regression analysis under ideal grid situation. Results and the discussion of the regression analysis are included in each step where it is possible.

5.1.

Regression analysis under arbitrary grid situation

The first grid that was selected, with grid cells of 600 by 600 m2 area (20 by 20 pixels together in 30m resolution in visible bands and 10 by 10 pixels in 60m resolution of thermal infrared band) is called the arbitrary grid in this study. In the arbitrary grid situation, a ground location can be situated whereever inside the particular grid cells. In regression analysis it is clear that the pollutant data collected at ground level and processed image outputs (AOT and AT2) do not show a good relation and ‘outliers’ popup in the analysis under arbitrary grid situation. The regression analysis done with AOT and AT2 from arbitrary grid cells corresponding to ground locations is discussed in this section. Linear regression analysis is carried out to find the relationship between ground data and AOT and/or AT2. Air pollution components collected at ground stations are PM10, CO, NO, NO2, SO2, NH3, BP and O3. Table 5.1 shows the data availability. These components are considered together as independent variables in the first part of the analysis and considered separately as dependant variables in a later stage. Daily averages and hourly averages of ground data corresponding to the polluted day, that is 23rd December 2000, and corresponding AOT and AT for ground locations which are used in regression analysis are tabulated in Appendix 3, Table A3.1. GS_ID in Table A3.1 is ‘ground station id’, the same as in Table 5.1. The second column of Table A3.1 is case number, from 1 to 28. The main consideration of this study is the fact that the radiation that reaches the sensors is disturbed by scattering and absorption effect due to polluted air and particles. To verify this effect, the correlation is checked between the air polluting components collected at ground level and corresponding values of processed images. To check the correlation ‘Bivariate Correlation’ is used in SPSS software. In this procedure Pearson’s correlation coefficient gives the measure of linear association and the two tailed significance level. Scatter plots indicate the relationships between two variables. Sometimes scatter plots do not show linear relationship but some other curve, i.e. y = f(x) which can approximate the linear function as follows.

28

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

1) Hyperbolic curve: y = 1/(a+bx) or 1/y = a+bx 2) Exponential curve: y = a Exp(bx) or ln(y) = a0 + bx 3) Geometric or power curve: y = a xb or ln(y) = a0 + b ln(x) Using relationships at 1,2 and 3, hyperbolic, exponential and geometric (power) curves can be converted to linear relationship considering 1/y versus x for hyperbolic; ln(y) versus x for exponential and ln(y) and ln(x) for geometric curves (Lipschutz and Schiller 1998). For these linear relationships, bivariate correlation coefficients between AOT, AT2 and air polluting components collected at ground level are tabulated in Appendix 3. Table A3.2 shows correlation for y = a + bx type relationships. Table A3.3, A3.4 and A3.5 are correlation coefficient for hyperbolic, exponential and geometric (power) curves respectively. In these tables DA and HA prefixes are for ‘daily average’ and ‘hourly average’ respectively. LN is for natural logarithmic and prefix ‘o’ for inverse (reciprocal) values (Table A3.3). As example HA_BP reads as: hourly average of black particles, while LNDAPM10 reads as: natural logarithm of daily average of particulate matter. From Table A3.2 hourly averages of NO and NO2 show significant positive correlation with AOT band 2 and 3 while O3 has a significant negative correlation. Hourly average of CO shows significant positive relationship with AT2. This can be explained by the absorption property of CO. For black particles, only daily average concentrations are available. Absorption property can be expected from black particles, however this is not reflected in the available data. Particular matter shows a positive correlation with AOT2, but with low significance (0.091). Polluting components collected at ground level are significantly correlated each other: Daily average of BP is significantly positively correlated with daily averages of NO, NO2 and CO. Linear relationship(s) with AOT or AT2 as dependant and data collected at ground level as independents Relationship between pollution data at ground level and AOT were examined. NO, NO2 and O3 together show significant relationship with AOT3. When R (multiple R) values are between 70 and 80, the same relationships gave low adjusted R2. This implies the relationships give good fit for this data set (sample data) but not for the whole population. Another important point is the data availability of selected study area. Once the different polluting components are introduced to the regression, the number of cases reduces because regression analysis considers the common cases together. As an example when NO, NO2 and O3 are considered together, the total number of cases will be 22; if CO is introduced, then the total number of cases will become 11; if PM10 is introduced too, then number of cases will be 10, and so on and so forth. Several regressions were carried out to find the best fit of air-polluting components together with AOT and AT2. The stepwise method is used to check the validity of independent variables together in an equation. In first step NO, NO2, NOX, O3, SO2 are considered together. Once it is clear that the SO2 does not show any effect to the equations it is removed and the same steps are done again. The number of cases is then larger and it shows a decrease of R2 and adjusted R2. This shows that data is more case specific, rather than giving good output for whole population. Some of the results, with the AOT3 as dependant and NO, NO2, NOX, O3, SO2 as independents, are tabulated in Table 5.2. 29

The regression equation at step 18 (Table 5.2) can be selected as the best among those tested, with adjusted R2 of 0.51. The correlation between NO, NO2, O3 and AOT3 is 0.76 while these three components explain 58% of the variability of AOT3. This relationship can be written as: ln(AOT3) = -3.219 – 0.305ln(DA_O3)+1.304ln(DA_NO2)-0.326ln(DA_NO) or

AOT3 =

0.04 * DA_NO1.304 2 DA_O30.305 * DA_NO 0.326

As explained in Section 2.2 NO and NO2 together are called NOX and the amount of ozone in the troposphere is largely determined by the concentration of NOX. At the same time, Table A3.2 shows these three components are correlated.

Other form of relationship that has been tested is AOT3 = b*NOa1*NO2a2*Exp(a3O3). In this type of relationship, the natural logarithm should be calculated on both sides of the equation to convert the relationship into a linear relationship. Then the relationship will look like ln(AOT3) = b0 + a1 Ln(NO) + a2 Ln(NO2) + a3O3 where a1, a2, a3, b and b0 are constants. These results can be tabulated as Table 5.3. The 3rd relationship of the Table 5.3 is better than others with an adjusted R2 of 0.48. The tsignificance of coefficients is acceptable except for NO (0.06). Independent variables of this equation explain 56% of the variation of the dependent variable, AOT3. Significance of f is low, which indicates that the relationship is not due to a random chance. SO2, NO, NO2 and NOX together, also do not show a good relationship with AOT3. CO with NO, NO2, NOX and O3 also does not show a significant relationship with AOT3. 31

Linear relationship between CO as dependant and AOT / AT2 as independent Daily and hourly averages of CO show negative relationship with AOT except with AOT2. These correlations are not significant. Hourly average of CO (HA_CO) is positively related with AT2, at tsignificance 0.074 (Appendix 3, Table A3.2). Scatter plot of AT2 versus HA_CO (Fig. 5.1a) illustrates the linear relationship and the regression results are summarised in Table 5.4. In regression analysis standardized predicted values versus observed CO (Fig. 5.1b) shows that the location 237 (case number 9) is not predicted properly by this regression results. In other words: if the model would fit each data values exactly, the observed and predicted values would coincide on a straight line extending from the lower left corner to the upper right. At the same time, the centered leverage value is above 0.2 at location 237 (Fig. 5.1c). In the next step this location is omitted from the regression and results are much improved (Table 5.4, step 2). In this step standardized predicted values versus studentized residual graph (Fig. 5.1d) shows that the errors fall between -/+ 2, but variance of residual is an increasing function with predicted value. Then a transformation such as the log of dependent or independent or both are needed. To improve the relationship, in the third step, the natural logarithm of the dependant variable is considered. As indicated in Figure 5.1e now the residuals fall between -/+ 2 band, and variance of the residual is constant. Figure 5.1f illustrated the plot of observed and predicted values. This model can be more improved by identifying and omitting outliers. But CO data available only at 14 ground locations and omitting a location will diminish the sample size.

Linear relationship between black particles (BP) as dependant and AOT3 as independent Daily average of black particles shows the highest correlation with AOT3 (Appendix 3, Table A3.2). Distribution of AOT at band 3 versus daily average of black particles is shown in Figure 5.2a. Regression between BP and AOT3 is not significant (Table 5.5 step 1). Variance of studentized residuals increases with predicted value (Fig. 5.2b). Therefore, in the next step the natural logarithm of the dependent variable was considered. In this step P-P plot indicated that the residuals are not distributed normally (Fig. 5.2c). The predicted versus the observed plot (Fig. 5.2d) shows that the case number 5 (location 230) is not predicted correctly by this model. Omitting location 230 improve the model results. (Table 5.5, step 3 and 4). 33

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

Except case 12 (location 318), residuals of this model are normally distributed (Fig. 5.2e). Residuals fall in between -/+ 2 (Fig. 5.2f). But the leverage plot (Fig. 5.2g) shows independent value of location 131 is an outlier. DfBeta graph tells that the sample may not be homogeneous; the model seems to fit less well at peaks points (Fig. 5.2h). In same time DFFIT plot (Fig. 5.2i) says that the model is very sensitive to location 131. Standardized predicted versus observed plot make clear that the model is held at lower point by location 131 (Fig. 5.2j). Because of these reasons, predictor values (AOT3) and original data are checked, rather than omitting location 131 (case number 2). Table 5.5: Relationship between DA_BP and AOT3 Comments

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

It is identified that the location 131 and 133 are situated closer to the boarder of the grid cell, which are considered at calculation of AOT (Section 4.2). Location 131, and 133 are about 34.6 m and 2.75m away from the border respectively. In Landsat data this is around one to one and half pixel size. This kind of shift can be expected in geo-referencing images and/or measuring the situation of ground locations. This situation is checked using nearest grid cell values to these locations (Table 5.6). Table 5.6: New values for location 131 and 133. Location /case no

Step 5 in Table 5.5 is with this new value for the independent variable at location 131. Then the leverage plot (Fig. 5.2k) shows the independent value of location 133 as outlier. In step 6 independent values are updated relevant to locations, 131 and 133. The natural logarithm of the dependant variable is considered in step 7. Statistics do not show improvement of the models. It still shows location 133 as an outlier (Fig. 5.2l). Linear relationship between black particles (BP) as dependant and AT2 as independent Black particles are generated as a result of incomplete burnings of fuel. An absorption effect can be expected from black particles. There is a correlation between daily average of black particle concentration and AT2 but this is not significant. Some of the regression results area tabulated in Table 5.7. Table 5.7: Relationship between DA_BP and AT2 Comments

Linear relationship between particulate matter as dependant and AOT2 as independent Particulate matter shows a significant correlation with AOT2. Figure 5.3a indicates the variation on hourly average concentration of PM10 with AOT2. It displays that station 131 is away from the linear relationship. In other words, to have clean air without aerosols, the amount of particles at the troposphere should be very low, around 30µg/m-3. But PM10 at location 131 is around 65µg/m-3. The leverage graph (Fig. 5.3b) shows that the error is at the independent variable. In the same way as for the case of BP, nearest grid cell to the location 131, which is situated around 34.6 m away from the location 131, shows the value 0.8804. In next step location 131 is omitted. The scatter plot of PM10 and 36

AOT2 shows that location 230 is away from the linear relationship (Fig. 5.3c). This location shows a high AOT value for a low amount of PM10. In case of black particles this location also shows up as an outlier (Fig. 5.2a and 5.2f). From the images and available thematic data location 230 was closely checked. It was identified that the water bodies situated in this grid cell were not properly removed. This can have an influence on the calculation of AOT: theory says that the algorithm used to calculate the AOT does not give correct results on water bodies (Section 4.2.). Omitting this location improves the results as well as the significance of the independent variable. Studentized residuals varied between -/+ 1.5 (Fig. 5.3d). Observed versus predicted shows almost a straight line going through the lower left to the upper right (Fig 5.3e). Location 404 (case number 13) is indicated as an outlier at leverage graph (Fig. 5.3f). This location is not removed because this point holds the upper corner of the regression line and because of the limited number of cases. The natural logarithm of the independent variable is checked, because the variance of the residuals shows a decreasing function with the predictor. The result is significant however it does not improve the statistic in step 3. Table 5.8 is a summary of linear relations of PM10 with AOT2. Figure 5.3: Relationship between PM10 and AOT2 100

Linear relationship between nitrogen monoxide as dependant and AOT3/AT2 as independent Daily average and hourly average of nitrogen monoxide (NO) are significantly correlated with AOT band 3. Furthermore hourly average of NO concentration is significantly correlated with AOT at band 2 and AT2. In this section linear relationships of hourly average of NO with AOT3 and with AT2 are considered. Furthermore scattering and absorption properties of NO are checked together, that is with AOT3 and AT2 both as independent variables. Scattering effect of NO For NO, data is available at 26 locations out of 28 locations. Figure 5.4a and 5.4b show that the NO is right skewed and AOT3 is almost normally distributed. Figure 5.4c shows that the location 131 is a strong holding point at lower corner of the linear relationship of AOT3 and NO. Variance of residuals shows the increase function with predicted values (Fig. 5.4d) and also according to the histogram of NO (Fig. 5.4a), NO data need a conversion. In the following step natural logarithm of NO is considered and statistics are much improved with respect to step 1 (Table 5.9). Predicted versus observed plot (Fig. 5.4e) shows that case 5 (location 230) is not predicted properly. By omitting case 5 the model can be improved (Table 5.9, step 3). But the residuals plot indicated that the case 7 and 8 (location 235 and 236) have high residuals (Fig. 5.4f).

Absorption effect of NO Scatter plot of AT2 versus hourly average of NO shows that some cases like 641 are away from a linear relation (Fig. 5.5a). Variance of residuals increases with predicted values (Fig. 5.5b) and the residual is larger at case 28 (location 641). Natural logarithm of HA_NO does not improve the relation (Table 5.10, step 2), but shows more outliers like cases 1, 4 and 28 (location 107, 227 and 641 in Fig. 5.5c). Removing case 28 (location 641) improved the statistics (Table 5.10, step 3); but the outliers at cases 13, 14 and 24 (location 404, 411 and 637 in Fig. 5.5d) remain.

Scattering and Absorption effect of NO Statistics of linear relationships improved when AT and AOT were both considered together with NO. Residuals vary as an increasing function (Fig. 5.6a) and case 5 and 28 have high residuals (location 230 and 641). Once case 5 was omitted, the model improves (Table 5.11, step 2). But the significance of AT as an independent variable is very low. Omitting case 28 with case 5 improves the significance 40

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

of AT from 0.259 to 0.114. Figure 5.6b shows most of the cases can be predicted by this relationship (Table 5.11, step3) except the cases like 25. Case 2 influences the model in the lower corner. If case 25 (location 638) is omitted, t-significance level of AT is increased to 0.084 (Table 5.11, step 4). Natural logarithm of dependant variable does not improve the relationship. Significance of AT is similar in step 4 and when considering natural logarithm of independent variable (step 6). Once the natural logarithm of independent variables is considered, location 131 is omitted by the system, because AOT3 value at location 131 is zero. Then the number of cases becomes 22.

Linear relationship between sulphur dioxide as dependant and AOT3/AT2 as independent SO2 shows a low correlation in less significant level with image outputs (Appendix 3, Table A3.2 to A3.5). Among them the best relation with highest significance is with AOT3. Hourly average of SO2 concentration is right skewed (Fig. 5.7a). To normalize the distribution of SO2, the natural logarithm of SO2 is considered. A graph of predicted versus observed (Fig. 5.7b) explains that most of the cases are not properly predicted by this relationship (Table 5.12, step2). Variance of residuals is still increasing function (Fig. 5.7c). The leverage graph shows that location 131 is an outlier among the values of independent or predictor variables (Fig. 5.7d). Omitting location 131 does not improve the relationship (Table 5.12, step3). Considering natural logarithm of both dependant and independent variables does not improve the statistics of relation either. Statistics of relation between SO2 and AOT3 are summarized in Table 5.12.

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

Linear relationship between nitrogen dioxide as dependant and AOT3/AT2 as independent variables Daily average of NO2 is correlated with AOT with a high significance level except with AOT of band 1. Daily average of NO2 is correlated with AT2 for 49 % at 0.013 significance level (Appendix 3, Table A3.2). Scattering effect of NO2 Distribution of daily average of NO2 is almost normal (Fig. 5.8a) and it seems that location 131 holds the regression line in the lower corner (Fig. 5.8b). Some locations, such as 230, 437 are not properly predicted by this relationship (Fig. 5.8c). Leverage graph shows location 131 as an outlier (Fig. 5.8d). Residuals fall between -/+2. Removing case 2 (location 131) does not improve the relationship. Results are tabulated in Table 5.13. Table 5.13: Relationship between DA_ NO2 and AOT3 Comments

Absorption effect of NO2 NO2 is significantly related with AT2. Locations 433, 411 and 107 are not properly predicted by this relationship (Fig. 5.9a). Residuals of these locations are greater than -/+2. Further, high residuals indicated the potential outliers at dependent variable. Leverage is less than 0.2 (Fig. 5.9b). The natural logarithm of dependent variable slightly improves the statistics of the relationship. Results are tabulated in Table 5.14. Figure 5.9: Relationship between NO2 and AT2 80

Linear relationship between Ozone as dependant and AOT3/AT2 as independent Hourly average of ozone is significantly negatively correlated with band 1 to band 3 of AOT and positively correlated with AT2. Ozone has highest significance with AOT3. By considering inverse relationship of AOT3 (1/AOT3) with ozone, correlation between these two increases. In this situation case 2 (location 131) is omitted by the system, because corresponding value of AOT3 to location 131 is zero. Location 441 is not predicted properly by the relation (Fig. 5.10b). Leverage shows that case 227 is an outlier. By considering natural logarithm of dependent or independent or both variables (Fig. 5.10c to e) it was tried to improve the correlation, but the statistics of the relation did not improve. Correlation improves when case 20 (location 441) is omitted. Most of the cases are predicted correctly by this relationship. Results are tabulated in Table 5.15. Figures 5.10a to 5.10f illustrate the ozone versus AOT3 relation and the leverage graphs for residuals and outliers in dependent and independent variables.

Regression analysis under ideal grid situation

When the ground location is situated in the centre of the relevant grid cell then the situation is called ‘an ideal grid’ in this study. AOT2, AOT3 and AT2 are recalculated with a new definition of the grid, which places the survey locations at the centre of the grid cells. AOT and AT values for the arbitrary grid cell, ideal grid cell and distance from ground locations to the arbitrary grid cell boundary are tabulated in Appendix 4 Table A4.1. Figures 5.12a to c show the AOT2, AOT3 and AT2 ideal grid cell values (denoted as AOT2C, AOT3C and AT2C) versus arbitrary grid cell values (displayed at y axis). Figures 5.12d to f show how the difference of ideal situation to arbitrary situation varies with the minimum distance (in m) from ground location to the arbitrary grid cell boundary. From these graphs it is clear that once the distance is less, AOT or AT values are highly variable.

In case of ideal grid situation, AOT3 value at location 131 is only changed very slightly with respect to arbitrary grid (Fig. 5.12b). To understand how the ideal grid situation affects the calibration of a relation, correlations between polluting components and outputs of ideal grid situation are tested again. All the graphs related to the following regressions are placed in Appendix 4. Relations of hourly average of CO with AOT2, AOT3 and AT2 with ideal grid Daily and hourly averages of CO are positively related with AOT, except for the relation of daily average of CO with AOT3. All of these relationships are not significant (Appendix 3, Table A3.6). Hourly average of CO is significantly correlated with AT2. Location 640 is away from regression line (Fig. A4.2a). Once this location is omitted, almost all the locations are predicted by the relation (Fig A4.2b). 47

Even though absorption properties can be expected from black particles, correlations are not significant with AT2 (Appendix 3, Table A3.7). Relation between black particles and AOT3 can be improved step by step as shown in Table 5.18. Graphical representations of these relations are shown in Appendix 4 Fig.A4.3a to A4.3e.

Relations of hourly average PM10 with AOT2, AOT3 and AT2 with ideal grid Hourly and daily averages of PM10 are correlated with AOT2 but not with AOT3 or AT2. AOT2 has the highest significance when correlated with hourly average of PM10 (Appendix 3, Table A3.8). Location 133 is away from the relation (Fig. A4.4a). Natural logarithm of dependent variable does not improve the relation (Fig. A4.4a), but omitting location 133 improves the relation significantly. Results are given in Table 5.19.

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

Relations of hourly average of NO with AOT2, AOT3 and AT2 with ideal grid Correlations of NO with AOT2 and AOT3 are highly significant and correlation with AT2 is not significant (Appendix 3, Table A3.9). Relations of NO with AOT3 are tabulated in Table 5.20. As clear in Fig 5.4a in the above section (arbitrary grid situation), spread of NO in the study area is positively skewed. Logarithm of the dependant variable improved the relationship between AOT3 and NO (Table 5.20, step 2). Residuals placed between -/+2 (Fig. A4.5a). Even though the residuals are normally distributed (Fig. A4.5b), the standardized predicted plot shows (Fig. A4.5c), that some locations like 640, 641, 235 are not properly predicted by this relation. Leverage versus residuals plot indicated (Fig. A4.5d) that location 131 is an outlier. After considering natural logarithm of dependant variable, the variance of the residuals is still an increasing function (Fig. A4.5a). Therefore in next step natural logarithm of both, independent and dependant are considered. Fig. A4.5e also shows that the location 131 is away from other locations. But when location 131 is omitted, the relation does not improved (Table 5.20, step 4 and 5). Table 5.20: Relations of hourly average of NO with AOT3 Comments

Relations of daily average of SO2 with AOT2, AOT3 and AT2 with ideal grid When considering ideal situation of grid, there are significant correlations between AOT2/AOT3 and daily average of SO2 (Appendix 3, Table A3.10). Daily average of SO2 shows the highest correlation with AOT2 and is negatively skewed (Fig: A4.6a). Natural logarithm of dependent variable improves the relationship (Table 5.21, step 2). Residuals fall between -/+2 (Fig: A4.6b). Most of the cases are predicted by the relation (Fig: A4.6c). Leverage plot shows 638 as an outlier (Fig: A4.6d).

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

6. Results and Discussion In this chapter, Section 6.1 includes mapping of dispersion of air pollution using image analysis and regression analysis outputs as a results of this study. Section 6.2 presents the discussion of the overall study.

6.1.

Mapping of dispersion of air pollution

Regression equations that have been derived under the ideal grid situation are considered for mapping purpose. CO, BP and PM10 are selected to be mapped over the study area, while AOT and AT are known. Maps are not limited only on to the urban area, because pollution created in urban areas spreads over other areas as well. In digital format these maps can be zoomed to the area where the user is interested. The maximum level of this zoom is up to size of 600 x 600 m2 area on the ground. Equations that have been used for mapping can be written as follows (from Table 5.25). Ha_CO = -363.132 + 19.98*AT2C Da_BP=1/(1.953*E(-2) + 4.203*E(-3) ln(1/AOT3C)) Ha_PM10 = 47.73 + 25.274*AOT2C

(6.1) (6.2) (6.3)

Minimum and maximum concentrations of CO, BP and PM10 over the study area can be tabulated as Table 6.1. Histograms of estimated polluting components (Appendix 2, Figure A2.2) are used to define the classes in final maps (Figures 6.1and 6.2). In Figure 6.1, BP and PM10 show high concentrations in the west part of the study area maybe due to road traffic, industries in the area and high sea traffic at North Sea. RIVM annual report of air pollution (Hammingh, Beck et al. 2001) point outs that the considerable amount of pollutants come to the Netherlands from the surrounding countries. This may be the reason for the high concentration of PM10 and BP at southeast and east of the country. Most of the areas have mixed classes. In case of CO, Figure 6.2 shows that the highest concentration is in the northeast, southwest belt and east border, and also areas like Rotterdam, Utrecht and Eindhoven. In coarse resolution, CO displays more relation to the urban areas and major road network. Table 6.1: Concentration range of BP, PM10 and CO over the Study Area (µ µg/m3) Black Particles PM10 CO

Minimum 5.85 47.73 0

Maximum 66.80 142.44 856.56

Usability These equations can be used to estimate the concentration of hourly average of CO, PM10 and daily average of BP for any part of the study area, once the AOT or AT2 is known by images, in 600 by 600 m2 area.

Discussion

As explained by Sabins (1987), existence of aerosols in the atmosphere can be checked with Landsat bands. If there is no pollution (less amount of aerosols), the histograms of band 4 and band 7 start at approximately the same DN value. Aerosols cause a shift in the DN values of band 4, to the direction of higher DN numbers compared to band 7 as shown in Figure 6.3. Figure 6.4 shows scatter plots of band 4 versus band 7 for a clear day and a polluted day. Straight lines represent the least squares fit of band 4 versus band 7 DN values. It shows that the ‘offset’ of the polluted day is less than that of the clear day. Presence of aerosols can be further explained by histograms of the DN values of a clear day and a polluted day as shown in Figure A4.1 in Appendix 4. Histograms of a polluted day show shrinkage (less standard deviation with a compressed range of DN values) compared to the clear day (Sifakis and Deschamps 1992).

This implies that, if an image archive does exist, there’s a possibility to find the polluted and less polluted days using histograms of DN values and scatter plots of MIR (2.09-2.35) versus NIR (0.78-0.90).

Regression analysis PM10 is significantly correlated with AOT2 while BP is related with AOT3 and relation of CO is with AT2. NO2 relates with AOT3 and AT2, NO and O3 relates with AOT3 and SO2 relates with AOT2 (Table 5.25). A reason for the fact that different components have relationships with different bands of 55

MAPPING OF DISPERSION OF URBAN AIR POLLUTION USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES AND GROUND STATION DATA

AOT or AT2 may be particle size of aerosols generated by pollutants and another reason may be their chemical and physical properties. Removing water bodies and clouds is important, because the method used to detect AOT and AT2 gives correct results only on the land area (Sifakis and Deschamps 1992; Sifakis and Paronis 1998). Ideal grid situation gives the best result for regression analysis. In arbitrary grid situation it was observed that some locations are closer to the border of the grid cells and those cause errors in the analysis. Therefore accuracy of geo-reference as well as accuracy of ground station co-ordinates is very important. Scattering and absorption effects of pollutant components are together Black particles and particulate matter both show a scattering effect. Correlation between AOT as dependent and BP and PM10 both together as an independent variables is not significant. The reason is that these two components have different relations, PM10 is mainly related with AOT2 and BP with AOT3. Another reason may be that number of cases common to both components is limited to 5. Most of the considered polluting components in this study are generated because of the fuel burning. Most of them are correlated (Appendix 3, Table A3.2). When considering the polluting components together as independent variables, they do not show a significant relationship with image outputs. Less fit ground locations in the regression under ideal grid situation Location 131 is situated in Southeast of the study area, in a place called “Vredepeel”. This place is close to the military airport ‘De Peel’ and surrounded by green areas in coarse resolution. The values of the ground data are high at this station with respect to the image calculations, especially in band 3. In field verification it was clear that the measuring equipment in location 131 is surrounded by open area covered by bare soil and agricultural lands rather than urban environment. Air pollution annual report for 2001 by RIVM (Hammingh, Beck et al. 2001), point out that ‘De Peel’ has high deposition rate. This may be the reason for incomparable results between collected ground data and image outputs. Data at location 640 do not match with image outputs. This station is situated in Utrecht, in a place called “Universiteitsbibliotheek” (University Library). This location is spatially close to location 637 (only about 46m away) and recorded very low concentration of polluting components at ground level with respect to 637. By the field verification it became clear that the measuring equipments at location 637 are situated at the road side, while location 640 is situated in a very different situation, where it is a small open area away from the roads, fully surrounded by buildings. Location 638 is also situated in the Utrecht area, only about 1.5km away from location 637 and 640 and shows low polluted values especially for SO2. This is a very special ‘local situation’ that is some places create a large amount of pollutants and spread over the atmosphere. So, in ground level this may not identified, but in images it is identified as a polluted area. This local situation may be more explainable in case of SO2. SO2 concentration is high in Rotterdam area. Ground measurements at places closer to Rotterdam, like Den Haag and Schipluiden are low, relative to the image outputs (Figure 6.5, location 404 and 411 respectively). Ground stations at Southwest to the study area (Zierikzee, Philippine) show high daily averages relative to the image outputs (Figure 6.5, location 301 and 318 respectively). In other part of the study area daily average of SO2 concentration is more or less 10µm/m3 and hourly average is about 20µm/m3.

Viewing angle In the calculation of aerosol optical thickness (Section 4.2), it is assumed that the viewing angle is 00 with 0.83% error. The maximum value that has been obtained for AOT is 3.7471 for band 2. Therefore the maximum error that can occur is +/- 0.0156 at the edge of the scene. In the study of Sifakis and Deschamps (1992), they have assumed the viewing angle as zero, even when the viewing angle is 150 and 160 for SPOT XS1, with 3.87% of error.

AT2F

Changing of the grid cell size 450 by 450 m2 area (15 by 15 pixels in visible bands) grid cell size is considered to check how the grid cell size affects mapping of urban air pollution. These grid cells are also selected as the ground locations situated in centre of the corresponding grid cells (ideal situation). Landsat-7/ETM+ band 2, 3 and thermal infrared bands are selected for this purpose. When grid cell size is changed, temperature differences do not change significantly as shown in Figure 6.6. This is because the difference of atsatellite temperature (AT2) is calculated as the average of the pixels in the considered grid cell. In the case of AOT, once the grid cell size is changed, 31 AOT is changed as shown in Figure 6.7 (Figures 638 30 6.7a and 6.7b for band 2 and 3 respectively). The 640 639637 29 236416 possible reason for this is, that AOT is calculated 404 318 28 based on the standard deviation of the selected 107 636 441 418 238 grid cell. If the area’s texture changes rapidly, 27 433 227 131 then changing grid cell size affects AOT. In Fig26 633 235415232 230 237 ures 6.6 and 6.7, x-axis and y-axis are AT or AOT 620 25 2 411 641 vales of ideal grid cells in 600 by 600 m size and 301 24 133 450 by 450 m2 size respectively. Because of time 437 23 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 limitation, regression analysis was not repeated 2 AT2C for the new grid cell size (450 by 450 m area). Sifakis and Paronis (1998) have shown in their Figure 6.6: Effect of changing grid cell size on atstudy that for Landsat data, the best AOT values satellite temperature are given by 600 x 600 m2 area for urban areas.

Figure 6.7: Effect of changing grid cell size on AOT

Temperature cut-off value To have a minimum hourly average concentration of CO (Eq. 6.1), at satellite temperature difference should be 18.1750. In other words, once the at-satellite temperature difference is higher than the 18.20 only then CO is present. Another observation is that the air temperature difference between reference and polluted day is almost 180 over the study area (Appendix 4, Table A4.2). When calculating atsatellite temperature (screening effect), using Equation 3.10 (Section 4.3) it is assumed that the ‘target radiative temperature’ is constant. Sifakis and Paronis (1998) explain that this is subjected to variation in solar angle and air temperature (Section 3.2.1, Equation 3.10). To generalize the seasonal effect or to remove the effect by target radiative temperature, 18.20 is used as a cutoff value in this study. In other words, if the at-satellite temperature difference is higher than 18.20, the area is considered polluted. In the study area, the area where the at-satellite temperature is less than 18.20 is very small, i.e. 0.13% (about 14.6 km2) of the whole area. This area is mainly situated in the southern part of the Limburg Province. Limitations of calibrated equations If there are new sources, which emit other components of molecules or particles into the atmosphere, which result in a scattering and absorption effect, these equations may not give correct results without calibrating them again. If the grid cell size differs from the 600 x 600 m2 area (20 x 20 pixels in 30m resolution) results may be incorrect, except if they are calibrated for the situation.

7. Conclusion and Recommendation In this study, the main consideration is detecting urban air pollution by remotely sensed images and mapping urban air pollution by establishing the relationships between the data collected at ground level and outputs of image processing.

7.1.

Conclusion

PM10 and BP are significantly correlated with AOT2 and AOT3 respectively. The expected absorption property of BP does not show in this data. CO shows significant relation with AT2. Other components O3, NO2, NO and SO2 are significant but weakly correlated with AOT. NH3 does not show correlation with AOT or AT2. NH3 is measured only on three ground locations in the study area. Pollutant components that have been considered in this study are mostly related with AOT of green and red bands of Landsat-7/ETM+ (band 2 and 3 respectively). Scattering is caused by solid and liquid aerosols in the atmosphere. Aerosols contain different components, however when considering pollutant components together, this did not show a high correlation with AOT as expected. One reason may be, that once the components are considered separately, they are significantly correlated with AOT, but different components with different bands. So, once the components are considered together, high correlation cannot be expected with a particular band of AOT. Other reasons are the existing correlation among the pollutant components and the fact that the number of cases is reduced once the components are considered together. Pollution maps have been made for PM10, BP and CO over the study area. In digital format these can be zoomed where the user is interested. The maximum level of this zoom is up to 600m x 600m area on the ground. To generalize the seasonal effect in this study, the temperature difference 18.20 is considered as lowest in the study area. In other words, if at-satellite temperature difference is higher than 18.20 it is considered as polluted area. This did first come across with the minimum temperature that can predict CO. This is almost same as the difference of air temperature between reference and polluted days in the study area. There can exist special local situations, as an example, CO concentration at the Utrecht area. Ground data at some locations show a good relationship with image outputs (AT2), while other locations in the same area show very low ground data values with respect to the image outputs (AT2). This situation can be explained such that, if a place has a high concentration of pollution, once it is released to the atmosphere, it spreads over the area, but not at ground level. Therefore, this kind of situation can be detected by remotely sensed images, but not by the ground level data. The case of SO2 over Rotterdam area is another example for a special local situation. 59

Recommendation

Selecting a reference and a polluted day is very important in this kind of study. One possibility of doing this is to check the pollution level from the ground data, for the recording date of the available images. Another possibility is checking the histograms of DN values of visible bands. For polluted days shrinkage of histograms with a low standard derivation can be expected. To do a histogram check, there should be an image archive. Geo-referencing and removing water bodies and cloud cover are important. To do a regression analysis between ground data and aerosol optical thickness from images, it is important to pick the AOT values corresponding to the ground station locations. It gives the best result, when the ground station is situated in the centre of the corresponding grid cells of the image(s). In this study, this situation is called an “ideal situation”. For most of the urban areas 600 by 600 m2 (20 by 20 pixels in 30m resolution) grid cell size is suitable. Checking the suitable grid cell size for the study area is important because it has an effect on the regression results.

Appendix 2: Tables and Figures related to images analysis Table A2. 1: Summary of methods considered to distinguish water and land Method Supervised classification 1. Box 2. Minimum Mahalanobis distance 3. Maximum likelihood (MLH) 4. Minimum distances to mean Unsupervised classification 5. With 20 classes 6. With 30 classes 7. NDVI 8. Density Slicing

Remarks More unknowns, when threshold increases unknown areas filled with water. Major water bodies clearly separated from land. Less amount of inland water bodies show compared to MLH. Major water bodies clearly separated from land. Less amount of inland water bodies show compared to NDVI. But urban areas show good classification compared to NDVI, unsupervised classification with 20 classes, minimum distance to mean and density slicing. Major water bodies clearly separated from land. Continuity of inland water bodies. Urban areas misclassified as water bodies. Major water bodies clearly separated from land. Water and land can be separated at class 4 out of 20 classes. Continuity of inland water bodies. But urban areas are misclassified as water. Major water bodies clearly separated from land. Water and land can be separated at class 3 out of 30 classes. Class 4 are mixed with water and land. Major water bodies clearly separated from land. Inland water bodies do not show the continuity and urban areas are misclassified as water. Major water bodies clearly separated from land. Urban areas are misclassified as water.
