الوصف: Specific humidity (SH) which means the amount of water vapor in 1 kg of air, is used as an indicator of energy exchange between the atmosphere and the Earth’s surface. SH is typically computed using microwave satellites. However, the spatial resolution of data for microwave satellite is too low. To overcome this disadvantage, we introduced new methods that applied data collected by the Landsat-8 satellite with high spatial resolution (30 m), a meteorological model, and observation data for South Korea in 2016–2017 to 4 machine learning techniques to develop an optimized technique for computing SH. Among the 4 machine learning techniques, the random forest-based method had the highest accuracy, with a coefficient of determination (R) of 0.98, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 0.001, bias of 0, and Relative Root Mean Square Error (RRMSE) of 11.16%. We applied this model to compute land surface SH using data from 2018 to 2019 and found that it had high accuracy (R = 0.927, RMSE = 0.002, bias = 0, RRMSE = 28.35%). Although the data used in this study were limited, the model was able to accurately represent a small region based on an ensemble of satellite and model data, demonstrating its potential to address important issues related to SH measurements from satellites.
