[1] We have produced a 0.5° × 0.5° monthly global soil moisture data set for the period from 1948 to the present. The land model is a one-layer “bucket” water balance model, while the driving input fi...
With continued threat from climate change and human impacts, high-resolution and continuous hydrologic data accessibility has a paramount importance for predicting trends and availability of water res...
We examine the relative contributions of root zone soil moisture (SM) and groundwater (GW) storage to trends and interannual variability in total water storage (TWS) from essentially the entire Gravit...
Water is our most precious and arguably most undervalued natural resource. It is essential for life on our planet, for food production and economic development. Moreover, water plays a fundamental rol...
Throughout the past decade, the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) has given an unprecedented view on global variations in terrestrial water storage. While an increasing number of case st...
This volume provides in-depth coverage of the latest in remote sensing of hydrological extremes: both floods and droughts. The book is divided into two distinct sections floods and droughts and offers...
This study presents the first comparison of seasonal groundwater storage (GWS) variations derived from GRACE satellite data with groundwater‐level measurements in the High Plains Aquifer, USA (450,000...
This paper presents a continental‐scale phenological analysis of African savannas and woodlands. We apply an array of synergistic vegetation and hydrological data records from satellite remote sensing...
The essence of this paper is to undertake an investigation of the recent Canadian Prairie drought by employing total water storage anomalies obtained from gravity recovery and climate experiment (GRAC...
The Indian Ocean Tsunami of December 26, 2004 devastated coastal ecosystems across South Asia. Along the coastal regions of South India, increased groundwater levels (GWL), largely caused by saltwater...
The Huang-Huai-Hai (3H) Plain is the major crop-producing region in China. Due to the long-term overexploitation of groundwater for irrigation, the groundwater funnel is constantly expanding and the s...
The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite mission, which was in operation from March 2002 to June 2017, was the first remote sensing mission to provide temporal variations of Terre...
The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) is a satellite gravimetry mission, which provides the mean and time-varying global gravity fields. In this thesis, regional terrestrial water storag...
Summary This work presents an iterative, water balance based approach to estimate actual evapotranspiration (ET) with integrated surface/subsurface flow models. Traditionally, groundwater level fluctu...
Summary Retrieval of the terrestrial moisture storage dataset from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite remote sensing system is possible when the catchment of interest is of ...
Summary Groundwater trade is widely advocated for reallocating scarce groundwater resources between competing users, and managing over-allocated and declining aquifers. However, groundwater markets ar...
Streamflow of the Colorado River Basin is the most overallocated in the world. Recent assessment indicates that demand for this renewable resource will soon outstrip supply, suggesting that limited gr...
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...
Satellite measurements of time-variable gravity are a new data type, capable of addressing a wide variety of geophysical problems. This subject, in its present form, began with the 2002 launch of the ...
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 ...
