Remote sensing images are highly susceptible to spatially non-uniform haze under complex atmospheric conditions, leading to contrast degradation and structural detail loss. Moreover, remote sensing scenes usually exhibit complex spatial structures, highly uneven haze distribution, and significant statistical variability, which further increases the difficulty of haze removal. To address this issue, we revisit the haze degradation mechanism of remote sensing imagery and propose a dynamic histogram-sorted Transformer dehazing method from the perspectives of statistical distribution modeling and region-adaptive restoration. Specifically, a Histogram-Sorted Adaptive Attention is designed to map spatial features into the statistical distribution domain through a dynamic histogram sorting mechanism, enabling explicit discrimination and precise modeling of regions with different haze densities. Meanwhile, a Perception-Adaptive Feed-Forward Network is constructed, which incorporates a stable routing-based mixture-of-experts mechanism to adaptively select restoration strategies according to local texture characteristics and global haze density, thereby significantly enhancing the adaptability of the model in complex remote sensing scenarios. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves superior performance over existing approaches across multiple remote sensing benchmark datasets, effectively improving both visual quality and robustness of remote sensing imagery.
