Surface fresh water is essential for life, yet we have surprisingly poor knowledge of the spatial and temporal dynamics of surface freshwater discharge and changes in storage globally. For example, we...
Soil moisture, temperature, and snow are integrated states, so errors in land surface forcing and parameterization accumulate in these stores, which leads to incorrect surface water and energy partiti...
Since its launch in March 2002, the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) has provided a global mapping of the time-variations of the Earth’s gravity field. Tiny variations of gravity from m...
Since March 2002, the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) has provided first estimates of land water storage variations by monitoring the time-variable component of Earth's gravity field. ...
Several large-scale climate patterns influenced climate conditions and weather patterns across the globe during 2010. The transition from a warm El Nino phase at the beginning of the year to a cool La...
SUMMARY The main objective of the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) Atmospheric and Oceanic De-Aliasing Level-1B product (AOD1B) is the removal of high-frequency nontidal mass variations...
SUMMARY Successfully launched in 2002 mid-March, the goal of the Gravity Recovery And Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite mission is to measure the spatio-temporal variations of the gravity field ...
Redistribution of mass near Earth's surface alters its rotation, gravity field, and geocenter location. Advanced techniques for measuring these geodetic variations now exist, but the ability to attrib...
Received 17 May 2006; revised 24 October 2006; accepted 26 December 2006; published 7 April 2007. [1] Groundwater interacts with soil moisture through the exchanges of water between the unsaturated so...
Population growth and economic development have impacted the capacity of water resources to meet demands in a number of arid countries. This study focuses on the United Arab Emirates (UAE) where low r...
Monitoring regional terrestrial water load deformation is of great significance to the dynamic maintenance and hydrodynamic study of the regional benchmark framework. In view of the lack of a spatial ...
Like other agrarian countries, Pakistan is now heavily dependent on its groundwater resources to meet the irrigated agricultural water demand. Groundwater has emerged as a major source with more than ...
Large-scale water balance in the Australian continent is examined over an 8-year period (2003–2010) with three commonly used satellite based water cycle components: precipitation (P) from the Tropical...
Large-scale hydrology is often insufficiently represented by ground monitoring networks and land surface models. The launch of the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite mission pro...
In this study, we use observations from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite mission to evaluate freshwater storage trends in the north-central Middle East, including portions...
In this research, we characterized the changes in the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) monthly total water storage anomaly (TWSA) in 18 surface basins and 12 principal aquifers in the c...
In the last 5 years, Lake Victoria water level has seen a dramatic fall that has caused alarm to water resource managers. Since the lake basin contributes about 20% of the lakes water in form of disch...
Groundwater-dependent ecosystems (GDEs) are at risk globally due to unsustainable levels of groundwater extraction, especially in arid and semi-arid regions. In this review, we examine recent developm...
Groundwater storage in the High Plains aquifer has been steadily decreasing for 50 or more years due to withdrawals for irrigation. This trend has been documented in annually published United States G...
Groundwater recharge (GR) is a key component of regional and global water cycles and is a critical flux for water resource management. However, recharge estimates are difficult to obtain at regional s...
