Abstract:
This paper describes the development of an intensified charge coupled device (ICCD)-based fiber-optic monitor for remote Raman and surface-enhanced Raman (SERS) sensing. Both Raman and SERS data were obtained with the use of a fiber-optic probe design incorporating 20-m optical fibers carrying the Raman signal. Spectra were obtained in 5 milliseconds for Raman and 9 ms for SERS. The proposed system could be used for a highly sensitive portable Raman system for rapid and remote chemical sensing.

Abstract:
This paper describes a new fiber-optic multisensor based on an acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) and capable of remote sensing using a multioptical fiber array (MOFA). A two-dimensional charge-coupled device (CCD) was used as a detector, and the AOTF was used as a wavelength selector. Unlike a tunable grating or prism-based monochromator, an AOTF has no moving parts, and an AOTF can be rapidly tuned to any wavelength in its operating range within microseconds. The large aperture of the AOTF allows the optical signal from over 100 fiber-optic sensors to be measured simultaneously. These characteristics, combined with their small size, make AOTFs an important new alternative to conventional monochromators, especially for spectral multisensing and imaging. A prototype fiber-optic multisensor system has been developed, and its feasibility for simultaneous detection of molecular luminescence signal via fiber-optic probes is demonstrated.

Abstract:
Recent progress in reducing the extrinsic losses of fluorozirconate optical fibers has increased the material research efforts for these new waveguides. Fluorozirconate fibers, which are inherently more transparent than silica fibers, are predicted to have intrinsic losses as low as 0.001 dB/km at 3.45 μm [11]. Unfortunately, high intrinsic losses still plague these new optical fibers and these losses must be understood before ultra-low loss fibers become a reality. An automated fiber optic characterizer can help determine the loss mechanisms and the optical properties of fluorozirconate fibers so extrinsic loss mechanisms can be understood and eventually controlled. The automated fiber optic characterizer can also speed up the measurement process by using a microcomputer to align the fiber, calculate the results, and plot the graph. This thesis presents the technical issues involved in the design and construction of an automated infrared fiber optic characterizer. The thesis also outlines the test results of a constructed automated fiber optic characterizer. The characterizer measures spectral attenuation between 0.8 μm and 4 μm, differential modal attenuation between 1.6 μm and 4 μm, and numerical aperture at 1.55 μm and 2.55 μm.

Abstract:
Au-delà de leur rôle d’icône du changement climatique, les glaciers de montagne sont une composante essentielle de notre planète. Ils sont, de plus, de véritables « climat-mètres » naturels. Malgré leur faible superficie (0.5% des terres émergées), les glaciers de montagne contribuent à hauteur de 30% à la hausse du niveau des mers. Dans certaines régions, ils constituent de véritables enjeux quant à l’eau potable, l’agriculture, la production hydroélectrique ou les aléas glaciaires. Peu sont en revanche instrumentés (<0.0025%) et leurs fluctuations à l’échelle de régions entières sont mal connues.Grâce au développement de capteurs satellitaires à haute résolution spatiale (métrique à décamétrique), le développement de méthodes automatisées permet aujourd’hui d’augmenter considérablement le nombre de glaciers observés. Après avoir dressé un état de l’art des méthodes existantes et identifié les verrous méthodologiques, nous avons développé deux méthodes en particulier.La première se base sur la détection automatique de l’altitude de la limite glace/neige (i.e. ligne de neige) à la surface du glacier, à partir d’images satellites optiques. Cette altitude, lorsque mesurée à la fin de l’été, est un marqueur du changement de masse à la surface du glacier ayant eu lieu au cours de l’année (appelé bilan de masse de surface). Cette approche nous a permis d’estimer le bilan de masse de surface annuel de 239 glaciers dans les Alpes européennes et de 82 glaciers dans les Andes tropicales pour la période 2000-2016 et 2000-2018, respectivement. La perte moyenne annuelle observée est de -0.74 et de -1.29 m équivalent eau par an pour les deux régions respectivement. A notre connaissance, cette approche a permis d’établir le premier jeu de données de bilans de masse de surface annuels pour des glaciers individuels à échelle régionale à partir d’images satellites optiques. Une dépendance du bilan de masse de surface moyen par glacier à des caractères morpho-topographiques (e.g. pente, altitude médiane …) a été observée, où plus les glaciers sont pentus et hauts en altitude, moins leur perte de masse est importante. Une comparaison avec des mesures in situ dans les Alpes Européennes révèle une surestimation de la perte de masse par ces dernières si on les extrapole spatialement, notamment à cause de la faible représentation de glaciers à forte pente (>20°) dans les mesures in situ. Notre étude sur les Alpes Européennes a de plus permis d’identifier une variabilité interannuelle hétérogène sur cette région, en partie expliquée par des contextes climatiques différents grâce à l’utilisation de données issues de ré-analyses.Le développement d’une autre méthode a permis, à partir de l’analyse de carte d’albédo issues du capteur MODIS, de caractériser le bilan de masse de surface annuel et estival de 30 glaciers dans les Alpes françaises. Cette étude ouvre la porte à l’utilisation de cette méthode pour l’analyse du bilan annuel et saisonnier à l’échelle régionale.Ce travail a permis, à travers des applications dans différentes régions englacées, de développer et valider des méthodes capables, à partir d’images satellites optiques, d’estimer le bilan de masse de surface annuel et saisonnier de glaciers de montagne à l’échelle de régions entières. Ces estimations peuvent ensuite être utilisées pour : (1) étudier l’impact du climat local sur les glaciers de montagne ; (2) d’investiguer de possibles conditions météorologiques favorisant les fluctuations observées ; (3) calibrer et valider les modèles glacio-hydrologiques utilisés pour estimer les contributions actuelles et futures des glaciers de montagne au fonctionnement hydrologique des bassins versants et à l'élévation du niveau des mers
Beyond their iconic role of climate change, mountain glaciers can be considered as Earth’ essential component and natural “climate-meter”. Despite their small spatial coverage (0.5% of emerged land), mountain glaciers contribute as high as 30% of the observed sea-level rise. In some regions, they are considered as essential issues because of their importance in terms of potable water, agriculture, hydroelectricity or natural hazards. A small share is however monitored in situ (<0.0025%) and their fluctuations at regional scale are poorly known.Thanks to the development of high spatial resolution satellite sensors (metric to decametric), new methods are today available to significantly increase the number of monitored glaciers. After a state of the art of the existing methods and an identification of the limitations, we focused our attention on the development of two methods.The first one is based on the automatic detection of the snow/ice interface altitude (i.e. snowline) at the glacier surface from optical satellite images. This altitude, when estimated at the end of summer, is a proxy of the annual glacier-wide mass change at the glacier surface (called surface mass balance, SMB). Using this approach, we estimated the annual SMBs of 239 glaciers in the European Alps and 82 glaciers in the tropical Andes for the period 2000-2016 and 2000-2018, respectively. The mean mass loss are -0.74 and -1.29 m water equivalent per year for the two regions, respectively. This approach allowed to derive the first dataset of annual SMBs for individual glaciers at regional scale from optical remote sensing. We found significant relationships between the computed SMBs and the glacier morpho-topographic features (e.g. slope, median altitude, …), with steeper and higher glaciers, experiencing less mass losses. Comparison with in situ monitored SMBs revealed an overestimation of mass losses from in situ estimates, due to a low representativeness of steep glaciers (>20°) in the in situ datasets. Our study also revealed heterogeneous inter-annual variability across the European Alps, partially explained by the climatic context of the studied sub-regions, thanks to the analysis of climate reanalysis data.We developed a second method to derive the annual and summer SMBs from albedo maps, computed from MODIS images. With an application on 30 glaciers in the French Alps, this work opened the way toward a regional application of this method, in order to estimate both annual and summer SMBs.By performing regional applications on different glacierized regions, we developed and validated methods capable of deriving the annual and summer SMBs of individual mountain glaciers at regional scale, from optical remote sensing data. These data could then be used to (1) assess the impact of peculiar climatic conditions onto mountain glaciers; (2) investigate possible meteorological conditions driving the documented glacier fluctuations; (3) calibrate and validate glacio-hydrological models used to estimate the current and future contributions of mountain glaciers to the hydrological functioning of mountain catchments and to sea level rise

Abstract:
L'agriculture en Tunisie fait partie des secteurs importants sur lesquels reposent l'économie du pays. Elle revêt également son importance par sa contribution à la sécurité alimentaire. Dans un contexte de gestion des ressources naturelles, la caractérisation et le suivi des états de surface est indispensable, particulièrement dans les régions semi-arides où plusieurs contraintes freinent le développement agricole (période de sécheresse, conflits sur le partage des eaux, manque de ressources, surexploitations des nappes, etc.). En Tunisie, près de 80 % des ressources en eau disponibles sont utilisées par l'agriculture avec une efficacité limitée. Là, où les ressources en eau sont très limitées, l'estimation de l'état hydrique de surface est particulièrement nécessaire pour établir les décisions adéquates pour une meilleure gestion de cette ressource. Dans ce contexte, la télédétection fournit une base fondamentale de données pour l'observation de la surface et constitue un outil majeur pour l'acquisition d'informations à distance. Les travaux réalisés au cours de cette thèse sur la plaine de Kairouan, au Centre de la Tunisie et caractérisée par un climat semi aride, contribuent à l'évaluation du potentiel des nouveaux capteurs satellitaires Sentinel-1 (S-1) et Sentinel-2 (S-2) pour la caractérisation des états de surface, spécifiquement l'humidité du sol dans un contexte de gestion durable des ressources en eau et en sol. En effet, ces nouveaux systèmes offrent aujourd'hui des produits opérationnels avec une forte répétitivité temporelle et des résolutions spatiales métriques permettant un suivi régulier. Dans notre contexte, les données radars sont particulièrement sensibles aux conditions de surface, précisément à l'humidité du sol, à la rugosité de surface et à la végétation. Ils se dévoilent comme les outils les plus prometteurs pour un suivi précis à l'échelle de la parcelle ou régionale. Ce travail comprend deux principales parties qui relient directement l'humidité du sol (variable clé pour différents processus) à l'irrigation dans un premier temps, puis à la texture du sol. L'approche adoptée combine les mesures expérimentales à l'utilisation de données de la télédétection multi-capteurs en synergie, ainsi à la modélisation et à la cartographie. La thèse se structure en trois volets. Le premier volet de ce travail évalue le potentiel des données radars en bande C pour une large base de données. Les résultats ont montré à travers des études du comportement et de modélisation que le signal radar permet de suivre la dynamique temporelle et spatiale de l'humidité du sol sur des parcelles de céréales. Le second volet, consiste à évaluer l'utilisation conjointe de données optiques et radars afin de pouvoir prédire l'état hydrique de surface sur une couverture végétale.[...]
Agriculture is considered as one of the most important sectors in Tunisia on which the country's economy is predominately based. It is also important because of its contribution to food security. In the context of natural resource management, the characterization and monitoring of surface states is essential, particularly in semi-arid regions where several constraints hamper agricultural development (period of drought, conflicts over water sharing, lack of resources, overpumping of groundwater, etc.). In Tunisia, nearly 80% of available water resources are used by agriculture with limited efficiency. Here, with very limited water resources, the estimation of the surface water state is necessary to establish the appropriate decisions for a better sustainable management. In this context, remote sensing provides a fundamental database for surface observation. It is a major tool for remote sensing data acquisition.The work carried out during this thesis contributes to evaluate the potential of the new Sentinel-1 (S-1) and Sentinel-2 (S-2) satellite for the characterization of surface states, specifically soil moisture in a context of sustainable management of water and soil resources. Indeed, these new systems offer operational products with a high temporal repeatability and metric spatial resolutions allowing regular monitoring. In our context, radar data is particularly sensitive to surface conditions, specifically soil moisture, surface roughness and vegetation cover. They are unveiled as the most promising tools for accurate monitoring at the field or regional scale. This work includes two main parts that directly relate soil moisture (key variable for different processes) to irrigation first, and then to soil texture. The approach adopted combines experimental measurements with the use of different remote sensing data in synergy, modeling and mapping. The thesis is structured in three parts. The first part of this work evaluates the potential of C-band radar data for a large database. The results showed through behavioral and modeling studies that the radar signal could retrieve temporal and spatial dynamics of soil moisture on cereal plots. The second component consists of evaluating the combined use of optical and radar data in order to predict surface water conditions over vegetative cover. With a precision of about 6 vol. %, soil moisture mapping is then proposed at high spatial resolution, by inverting the Water Cloud Model (WCM), a backscattering model for vegetation cover.[...]

Abstract:
This paper describes the development, characterization, and modeling of a Tunable Filter Camera (TFC). The TFC is a new multispectral instrument with electronically tuned spectral filtering and low-light-level sensitivity. It represents a hybrid between hyperspectral and multispectral imaging spectrometers that incorporates advantages from each, addressing issues such as complexity, cost, lack of sensitivity, and adaptability. These capabilities allow the TFC to be applied to low-altitude video surveillance for real-time spectral and spatial target detection and image exploitation. Described herein are the theory and principles of operation for the TFC, which includes a liquid crystal tunable filter, an intensified CCD, and a custom apochromatic lens. The results of proof-of-concept testing, and characterization of two prototype cameras are included, along with a summary of the design analyses for the development of a multiple-channel system. A significant result of this effort was the creation of a system-level model, which was used to facilitate development and predict performance. It includes models for the liquid crystal tunable filter and intensified CCD. Such modeling was necessary in the design of the system and is useful for evaluation of the system in remote-sensing applications. Also presented are characterization data from component testing, which included quantitative results for linearity, signal to noise ratio (SNR), linearity, and radiometric response. These data were used to help refine and validate the model. For a pre-defined source, the spatial and spectral response, and the noise of the camera, system can now be predicted. The innovation that sets this development apart is the fact that this instrument has been designed for integrated, multi-channel operation for the express purpose of real-time detection/identification in low-light-level conditions. Many of the requirements for the TFC were derived from this mission. In order to provide background for the design requirements for the TFC development, the mission and principles of operation behind the multi-channel system will be reviewed. Given the combination of the flexibility, simplicity, and sensitivity, the TFC and its multiple-channel extension can play a significant role in the next generation of remote-sensing instruments.

Full text
Abstract:

A common method to identify or model the dominant directional reflective properties of a surface is the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF). BRDF describes the angular behavior by which light interacts with surfaces. Remote sensing technology has advanced to the stage where hyperspectral sensors, with hundreds of separate wavelength bands, are fairly common. This necessitates examining BRDF in the hyperspectral regime, which implies examining the directional reflective properties of hundreds of narrowly spaced wavelength bands.

In this dissertation I hypothesize that beach sand BRDF is wavelength dependent. Principal component analysis (PCA) and correlation matrix analysis of in situ measurements were used to test whether the spectral variability in the visible, near-infrared and shortwave directional reflectance factor of beach sands with and without freshwater surface films are wavelength dependent. The hyperspectral BRDF of beach sands exhibit weak spectral variability, the majority of which can be described with three to four broad spectral bands. These occur in the absence of a water layer on top of the sand in three wavelength ranges of 350-450 nm, 700-1350 nm, and 1450-2400 nm. When observing sheet flow on sand, a thin layer of water enhances reflectance in the specular direction at all wavelengths, and that spectral variability may be described using four spectral band regions of 350-450 nm, 500-950 nm, 950-1350 nm, and 1450-2400 nm. Spectral variations are more evident in sand surfaces of greater visual roughness than in smooth surfaces, regardless of sheetflow.

Abstract:
Research has been done for the calibration of a thermal infrared imaging system for the measurement of transmission line conductor sample emissivities. The spectral response of the imaging system was from 8 to 12 micrometers. A laboratory set-up was designed and built for this analysis. The laboratory equipment consisted of a FLIR 1000a thermal infrared imaging system, a stainless steel black-body source with dual emissivity front surface coatings, an Elexor Industries PL1000 data acquisition and control system, and an IBM personal computer AT with imaging board and imaging software. The emissivities of the conductor samples were obtained through the analysis of thermal infrared images of each conductor with a blackbody cavity and low emissivity source simultaneously imaged as references. This analysis gave statistical mean grey levels for each conductor sample and references. From these mean grey levels the emissivity of the conductor samples were computed. Nine transmission line conductor sample emissivities where measured to an average accuracy of 17.5%. The emissivities ranged from .451 to .959.

Abstract:
Recent efforts in Earth remote sensing have focused on accurately measuring top-of-atmosphere and surface leaving radiances. One factor that must be accounted for in the radiometric calibration of an Earth remote sensing satellite is the polarization of the radiance. This dissertation provides a comprehensive analysis of how polarization has an impact on the radiometric calibration of visible through long wave infrared Earth remote sensing satellites (0.4 through ∼15 μm). The first part of this dissertation concentrates on reviewing the current status of calibration and of polarization measurements in Earth remote sensing. It provides a comprehensive review of polarization in Earth scenes, calibration targets, and the sensitivity of instruments. The second part examines how polarization affects calibration during the application of the calibration coefficients. One must account for the differences in polarization between the calibration target, used to determine the calibration coefficients, and the scene itself. This dissertation derives the impact of polarization on the radiometric calibration coefficients using both the Stokes vector and the Jones vector formalisms and accounts for the instrument polarization sensitivity, calibration target polarization, and scene polarization through normalization. Using these derived results, the impacts of polarization on radiometric uncertainty are calculated for the family of theoretical cases and for cases based on literature data. The third part of this dissertation examines how the polarization response of an instrument can affect the calibration by creating a variation in the response vs. scan angle (RVS). It derives the mathematical relationship between the polarization response of an instrument and its response vs. scan angle. It examines the correlation between the two using MODIS pre-launch system level polarization and RVS measurement data and derives the sensitivity of the RVS to aft optics polarization. This establishes when scan mirror data is sufficient to characterize RVS and when a system level measurement is required. This dissertation then examines potential ways to determine the instrument's polarization response and response vs. scan angle post-launch. Finally, this dissertation identifies sensitivity thresholds in both cases and summarizes when polarization should be accounted for in radiometric calibration. Potential areas for future advancement of the field are discussed.
