Estimation of the water content of needles under stress by Erannis jacobsoni Djak. via Sentinel-2 satellite remote sensing by Jiaze Guo, Xiaojun Huang, Xiaojun Huang, Xiaojun Huang, Debao Zhou, Junsheng Zhang, Gang Bao, Gang Bao, Siqin Tong, Siqin Tong, Yuhai Bao, Yuhai Bao, Dashzebeg Ganbat, Dorjsuren Altanchimeg, Davaadorj Enkhnasan, Mungunkhuyag Ariunaa

“…The accuracy of the method is verified by comparing the estimation results with field measurements, and the results are combined with the classifications of the leaf loss rate(LLR) to assess the severity of infestation.ResultsThe results indicate that: 1) When estimating LWCD and LWCF using the SVR and BP models, the SVR model demonstrated superior accuracy and stability (MAE for LWCF = 0.1477, RMSE = 0.17314; MAE for LWCD = 0.10507, RMSE = 0.14760). 2) The classification accuracies of LWCD and LWCF were notably higher in areas with light and medium damage, suggesting that these indices are effective indicators for assessing damage caused by Erannis jacobsoni Djak. and can serve as valuable tools for monitoring pest infestation and its progression. 3) Through precision evaluation and supplementary validation, the results show that LWCD is more stable and reliable than LWCF, demonstrating greater credibility, particularly in terms of MAE and RMSE, where LWCD exhibits lower values (MAE for LWCD = 0.10507, RMSE = 0.14760). …”
