This study's field observations of Light Source Efficiency (LSE) in the Taklamakan Desert have unveiled significant daily average variations across different wavelengths, with LSE values ranging from 0.827 at 9.1 mu m to a peak of 0.969 at 12.1 mu m, and notably, a substantial daily variation (DV) of Delta epsilon = 0.080 in the 14.3 mu m band. These findings underscore the necessity for wavelength-specific analysis in LSE research, which is crucial for enhancing the precision of remote sensing applications and climate models. This study's high-temporal-resolution FTIR field observations systematically reveal the diurnal dynamics of infrared surface emissivity in the desert for the first time, challenging existing satellite-based inversion products and highlighting the limitations of traditional temperature-emissivity separation algorithms in arid regions. The diurnal fluctuations are governed by three primary mechanisms: the amplification of lattice vibrations in quartz minerals under high daytime temperatures, changes in the surface topography due to thermal expansion and contraction, and nocturnal radiative cooling effects. The lack of a significant correlation between environmental parameters and the emissivity change rate suggests that microclimate factors play a dominant indirect regulatory role. Model comparisons indicate that sinusoidal functions outperform polynomial fits across most wavelengths, especially at 12.1 mu m, confirming the significant influence of diurnal forcing. The high sensitivity of the 14.3 mu m band makes it an ideal indicator for monitoring desert surface-atmosphere interactions. This study provides three key insights for remote sensing applications: the development of dynamic emissivity correction schemes, the prioritization of the long-wave infrared band for surface temperature inversion in arid regions, and the integration of ground-based observations with geostationary high-spectral data to construct spatiotemporally continuous emissivity models. Future research should focus on multi-angle observation experiments and the exploration of machine learning's potential in cross-scale emissivity modeling.
