摘要: 针对子午工程海量气辉图像高效处理需求, 研究基于机器学习技术构建了大气重力波与中尺度行进式电离层扰动智能识别及参数提取工具. 通过卷积神经网络分类模型筛选晴朗夜空环境图像, 准确率达99%(OH气辉图像)与96.9%(OI气辉图像); 结合快速区域卷积神经网络定位波动结构, 交并比超过75%. 对大气重力波采用基于二维傅里叶变换的波长、传播方向与水平速度提取方法, 对中尺度行进式电离层扰动采用Canny边缘检测与线性拟合提取波动参数. 根据输出的参数数据集统计了大气波动的长期趋势, 丹东站点(40.0°N, 124.0°E) 通过OH气辉观测到的大气重力波发生率在冬夏两季达到峰值, 呈现明显的双峰分布特征, 传播方向冬夏季分别集中在西南方向和东北方向. 兴隆站点(40.2°N, 117.4°E)通过OI气辉观测到的中尺度行进式电离层扰动事件, 94%的传播方向主要集中分布于西南方向(方位角200°~230°). 这些统计特性与文献中的统计规律一致, 说明基于大气波动参数数据集进行的统计分析是可靠的. 本工具解决了传统人工分析效率低、主观性强的问题, 为大气波动长期统计研究提供了可靠的数据支撑, 数据集已经开源, 程序也即将上网.

Abstract: To address the demand for efficient processing of massive airglow images in the Meridian Project, this study developed a machine-learning-based method for automatic identification and parameter extraction of Atmospheric Gravity Waves (AGWs) and Medium-Scale Traveling Ionospheric Disturbances (MSTIDs). A Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) classification model was employed to filter clear-night-sky images, achieving accuracies of 99% (OH airglow) and 96.9% (OI airglow). Wave structures were localized using a Fast Region-Based CNN with an Intersection-over-Union (IoU) value exceeding 75%. For AGWs, parameters including wavelength, propagation direction, and horizontal phase velocity were extracted via 2D Fourier transform, while Canny edge detection and linear fitting were applied to MSTIDs. Analysis of the extracted parameter dataset revealed long-term trends of atmospheric waves: At the Dandong station (40.0°N, 124.0°E), OH airglow observations showed a bimodal seasonal distribution of AGW occurrence, with peaks during both winter and summer, with propagation directions being predominantly southwestward in winter and northeastward in summer. At the Xinglong station (40.2°N, 117.4°E), 94% of MSTID events detected via OI airglow exhibited southwestward propagation (azimuths of 200°~230°). These statistical characteristics align with established patterns in the literature, validating the reliability of the dataset. This tool resolves the inefficiency and subjectivity of traditional manual analysis, providing robust data support for long-term atmospheric wave studies. The associated algorithms and datasets will be open-sourced. -
