Wavelet decomposition and deep learning of altimetry waveform retracking for Lake Urmia water level survey
Lake Urmia is located in the northwest of Iran and shared between the provinces of West Azarbaijan and East Azarbaijan. In the last two decades, there has been a considerable decline in the lake’s water level. Satellite altimetry (SA) together with the advanced precise orbital positioning system has reached a high accuracy in the measurement of the water level height, but increasing the accuracy of waveform retracking (WR) is a challenging issue. In this study, wavelet decomposition and convolutional neural network were used for the WR with 50%, 55%, and 60% training scenarios and the threshold method was used for the 1992–2019 period. The training of 55% has the best result with a ± 0.027 m root mean square error. The water level has decreased by approximately 7 m from 1994 to 2018 and its overall trend is downward. The proposed method has been able to increase the WR accuracy by up to 30%. The gravity recovery and climate experiment and the annual monitoring of the water level station have also been used for the SA verification, which have a significant correlation of 0.66 and 0.96 with SA, respectively.
