The paper focuses on the photogrammetric investigation of geometric models for different types of optical fisheye constructions (equidistant, equisolid-angle, sterographic and orthographic projection). These models were implemented and thoroughly tested in a spatial resection and a self-calibrating bundle adjustment. For this purpose, fisheye images were taken with a Nikkor 8 mm fisheye lens on a Kodak DSC 14n Pro digital camera in a hemispherical calibration room. Both, the spatial resection and the bundle adjustment resulted in a standard deviation of unit weight of 1/10 pixel with a suitable set of simultaneous calibration parameters introduced into the camera model. The camera-lens combination was treated with all of the four basic models mentioned above. Using the same set of additional lens distortion parameters, the differences between the models can largely be compensated, delivering almost the same precision parameters. The relative object space precision obtained from the bundle adjustment was ca. 1:10 000 of the object dimensions. This value can be considered as a very satisfying result, as fisheye images generally have a lower geometric resolution as a consequence of their large field of view and also have a inferior imaging quality in comparison to most central perspective lenses.  相似文献   

Organic carbon fluxes through the mesozooplankton and their variability at different time-scales in the Gullmarsfjord,Sweden

Study of rate process responses and carbon transfer rates in the plankton is a well developed field, but attention has focused on seasonal or longer scales and knowledge on variability patterns and modulating mechanisms at shorter scales is very limited. Here we investigated variability in pelagic carbon transfer rates on daily and seasonal scales in the Gullmar Fjord, Sweden. Hierarchical sampling was carried out in five campaigns in different seasons each of which consisted of 8–12 d with sampling every other day. Algal ingestion, copepod egg and pellet production and vertical flux measured as pigments and pellets varied significantly between days as well as between seasons. Algal ingestion was highest in autumn (weight-specific rate: 0.3–1 d⁻¹) and at the start of the spring bloom (0.3–1.5 d⁻¹), while egg production was highest in summer–autumn (0.1–0.5 d⁻¹). Vertical flux peaked in summer with 4–6 mg pigment m⁻² d⁻¹ and up to 150 mg pellet Cm⁻² d⁻¹. Consonant responses between species were observed indicating a common food source for the mesozooplankton. Changes in trophic functions occurred on scales of days and the coupling between pelagic processes and vertical flux was strong. There were, however, both positive and negative responses which could not be explained by simple predator–prey interactions. The food quality in terms of prey type and biochemical composition are suggested as crucial factors for the variability both within the pelagic environment as well as for the vertical flux out of the upper layers in the ocean.  相似文献
