High-resolution observations from space to address new applications in hydrology

Abstract

There is an increasing demand from the hydrological community to improve the monitoring and modeling of hydrological processes using remote sensing technologies. However, this task has been severely limited by the coarse resolution of previous remote sensing observations. In recent years, along with the increased availability of high-resolution modeling in hydrology, the advent of high-resolution temporal dynamic satellite observations has been providing unprecedented new opportunities to address new applications and challenges in hydrology.
